Restored.

One of the greatest things I've learned over the last year is that the Lord restores. 

 

There are so many testimonies throughout the bible that talk about restoration. 

That's one of my favorite things about the Lord, is that he restores. He turns mourning into joy, he makes beauty out of ashes. He gives life to dry bones, and He takes a heart of stone whole and beat again. He can take a diseased body, and give it full healing... He takes darkness and turns it into light. 

Sometimes we don't understand it right away, because we think it's our whole world- the changes in life. But what we may not see in our life right away, is the restoration process. It's the LORD who restores. He restores everything.

I've had the below song set on repeat the last couple of days, "Champion" by Bryan and Katie Torwalt. And every time I hear it, I've been thanking the Lord for everything he's given and that I've seen him restore over the last few seasons of my life. It is a GOOD thing to be in the will of God. And I thank him for watching over my everyday. May I continue to follow after Him, and I'm so thankful that he continues to hold my family, and I in the palm of his hand.

Oh victory you have have won, victorious you have come. What was stolen, you brought back to us. 

 

Our champion, you fight for us. You made a way when there was none. 

 

Our Champion, you're strong in us, the debt we owe you paid it back. 

 

We will shout it out from the mountain tops, that our God is good, he has overcome. Let all the earth every tribe and tongue we will sing it out- he has overcome.
