There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears

There is a song, by Jeremy Camp, that I keep hearing on the radio. If you haven't heard this song, go out and buy it or find it online bc it is an amazing song. There is something so calming and peaceful about it and reminds us that in our darkest, saddest moments, one day we will see Jesus face to face.....


There Will Be A Day lyrics

I try to hold on to this world with everything I have
But I feel the weight of what it brings, and the hurt that tries to grab
The many trials that seem to never end, His word declares this truth,
that we will enter in this rest with wonders anew

But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings
That there will be a place with no more suffering

(Chorus)
There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more
fears
There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more,
we'll see Jesus face to face
But until that day, we'll hold on to you always

I know the journey seems so long
You feel you’re walking on your own
But there has never been a step
Where you’ve walked out all alone

Troubled soul don’t lose your heart
Cause joy and peace he brings
And the beauty that’s in store
Outweighs the hurt of life’s sting

But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings
That there will be a place with no more suffering

(Chorus)

I can’t wait until that day where the very one I’ve lived for always will
wipe away the sorrow that I’ve faced
To touch the scars that rescued me from a life of shame and misery
this is why this is why I sing

There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more
fears
There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more,
we'll see Jesus face to face

There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more
fears
There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more,
we'll see Jesus face to face

There will be a day, he will wipe away the tears,
He will wipe away the tears,
He will wipe away the tears,
There will be a day

Mother's day was Sunday and what a blessing to celebrate my first Mother's Day. This year has been unlike any other and I welcome every change that has taken place, being a mother is so rewarding. Sunday, my Aunt Sandi spent the day with us. There were no tears but alot of sadness. How do you celebrate Mother's day when your only son is in Heaven? I think you celebrate by remembering the words of this song...bc we know there will be a day when the burdens of this world are no more, we hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings that there will be a place with no more suffering....My Aunt Sandi is an amazing woman, and I pray for healing for her heart all the time. Her and my Uncle Larry have been through a hurt no parent should go through, and on Sunday, My First Mother's Day, I see their strength in a whole new light. I admire and hurt a whole different hurt for them, a hurt only a parent can experience. I didn't get to tell Bryan good-bye, I left to go on my honeymoon, naively telling Bryan the day before I left, that I would see him again and I expected him to be talking to me.....I guess I was in denial of how bad he was or wouldn't have left....but a revelation comes to me....I WILL see Bryan again and he will be talking to me and he will not hurt and my aunt and uncle will get to celebrate with BT, it will just be at a later date. When Jesus decides to call us home....So I think I have been hearing this song over and over and the words have truly spoken out to me for a reason...I don't use my blog to witness or preach, but this song is really amazing, calming, and may cause you to reflect on your own life...so I encourage you to do exactly that...buy the song and think....
