Hallelujah People

“At my church we sing a gospel song called, “Hallelujah anyway”. Everything’s a mess, and you’re going down the tube financially and gaining weight? Well, hallelujah anyway.” – Anne Lamont

I want to be this person. This hallelujah person who can look in the face of sorrow and frustration and say, ‘hallelujah anyway’.

When trust has been broken and lies told to our face, ‘hallelujah anyway’.

When one goes back into their addiction and we’ve cared about him for so long and called him friend, yes then, ‘hallelujah anyway’.

When I don’t want to hear one more story or take the time to listen to one who needs listening to, especially then, ‘hallelujah anyway’.

Enough petty frustrations and be gone sorrow for I am the child of God who loves me and enables me to say

HALLELUJAH ANYWAY!

      Why is it the minute you write something like that you hurt your back, spill cereal all over and well, you know, you read my Facebook πŸ˜‰ Hallelujah anyway!

        I surely don’t know, my friend! I almost blew it today with a fan cord. I’m “flashing” today, and felt i MUST have the fan. I decided to save my back and sweat a little. TMI!

We'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!
