With the passing of my husband's mom this past holiday season, I was overwhelmed with a deep sense of loss for this very dear friend of mine. Although she was my "mother in law," she was so much more than that to me and it would take a very long time to tell you about all her goodness.

With her passing it brought about another strong reminder of my own mom's passing, which was also an overwhelming loss.

A friend shared this song with me, and I in turn want to share it with you especially in time of a loss.

STRONGER THAN BEFORE

EVEN THO’ THE RAIN COMES DOWN
IT BRINGS LIFE INTO THE GROUND
AND I KNOW THE SUN WILL SHINE
AND THAT GIVES HOPE AGAIN
TO THIS HEART OF MINE

I KNOW GOD CAN HEAL ALL THINGS
BROKEN LIVES AND BROKEN WINGS
ONLY HE CAN MEND A HEART
THAT THIS WORLD HAS TORN APART

WHEN WE LOOK INTO THE PAST
LOVE’S THE ONLY THING THAT LASTS
AND THIS LOVE WILL KEEP US STRONG
WITH GOD’S HELP WE’RE MOVIN’ ON

(CHORUS)
AS THE SEASONS MAKE THEIR TURN
THERE’S A LESSON HERE TO LEARN
BROKEN WINGS TAKE TIME TO MEND
BEFORE THEY LEARN TO FLY AGAIN
ON THE BREATH OF GOD THEY’LL SOAR
THEY’LL BE STRONGER THAN BEFORE

(CHORUS)
BROKEN WINGS TAKE TIME TO MEND
BEFORE THEY LEARN TO FLY AGAIN
ON THE BREATH OF GOD THEY’LL SOAR
THEY’LL BE STRONGER THAN BEFORE
