I get so many hits on this ...Welcome to my blog! <br /><br />I get so many hits on this page. I have seen Mercy Me in concert (3) times. The 2nd time, my husband and I heard this song. I'm not even sure they had had a chance to record it on their album. <br /><br />It is such a powerful song and we are all so blessed that such beautiful and inspiring words/lyrics came out of such great personal pain and tragedy.<br /><br />During our international adoption, being separated from our twins was the most heartbreaking experiene I have ever felt. My heart completely belonged to them and it was so physically painful to not be there with them. <br /><br />And I fully relied on God to get me through the wait for them - sometimes more graciously than others. <br /><br />And this song, although written about a loved one being in heaven exemplified everything I was feeling.<br /><br />If you have Google'd the lyrics, I assume you too, might be in the midst of suffering from a loss. I pray for those that visit here, for whatever reason. <br /><br />And if you would ever like for me to pray specifically for something, feel free to leave a message here. <br /><br />God bless!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17624006985310718301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7004266714961196281.post-47953248642058678372007-06-13T23:15:00.000-04:002007-06-13T23:15:00.000-04:00LOVE your blog! But I wanted to let you know that ...LOVE your blog! But I wanted to let you know that the song "Homesick" is really about death. When you lose someone you love and you can't be together until Heaven...hence the words "you're in a better place" (Heaven) or "in Christ, there are no goodbyes, in Christ there is no end. So I'll hold onto Jesus with ALL that I have to see you again". I guess it could sound like what you're going through (waiting for the boys) but I have heard this song SO many times (I have the CD) and I read the inside cover and that's what it had said. The band had some major losses (family deaths) that led them to write that song. i can't wait to see the boys finally home. You are blessed (as are they!!!)

You really brought new meaning to the words of that song with your pictures added to it. This truly is how an adoptive parent feels once they meet their child and have to leave them behind in another country for an indefinite amount of time. Thanks you so much.<BR/><BR/>I will add you to my prayer list and pray that things progress quickly for you and your family.<BR/><BR/>Your baby is precious!<BR/><BR/>Amandajajbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03120852834788254896noreply@blogger.com
