Tell Your Heart to Beat Again

 This week seems to have been really hard for some reason.  I think that's one of the hardest things about grief...it's so unpredictable.  Some days I feel like I'm doing really well at holding onto Jesus and letting Him pull me out of the mire.  Other days (or weeks), I feel like I'm suffocating.  I can't see the light through the darkness, but I'm still trying to find it.  I feel like I'm not even living but it's some other person making my body go through motions.  People speak to me and I can hear their voice, but I can't seem to comprehend what they are saying.  It's frustrating.

I am trying to let God's grace wash over me.  I need Him now more than ever...

Lyrics:
You're shattered like you've never been before The life you knew In a thousand pieces on the floor Words fall short in times like these When this world drives you to your knees You think you're never gonna get back To the you that used to be
Tell your heart to beat again Close your eyes and breathe it in Let the shadows fall away Step into the light of grace Yesterday is a closing door You don't live there anymore Say goodbye to where you've been And tell your heart to beat again Beginning
Just let that word wash over you It's alright now Loves healing hands have pulled you through So get back up Take step one Leave the darkness Feel the sun Cause your story's far from over And your journey's just begun Tell your heart to beat again Close your eyes and breathe it in Let the shadows fall away Step into the light of grace Yesterday is a closing door You don't live there anymore Say goodbye to where you've been And tell your heart to beat again Let every heartbreak And every scar Be a picture that reminds you Who has carried you this far Cause love sees farther Than you ever could In this moment heaven's working Everything for your good Tell your heart to beat again Close your eyes and breathe it in Let the shadows fall away Step into the light of grace Yesterday is a closing door You don't live there anymore Say goodbye to where you've been And tell your heart to beat again Your heart to beat again Beat again Ohh so tell your heart to beat again
