Beautiful Heartbreak

Song: Beautiful Heartbreak

Artist: Hilary Weeks

 

This song is so beautiful and really touches my heart. This is one of my new go-to songs during trying times in my life.

 

 

I had it all mapped out in front of me

Knew just where I wanted to go

But life decided to change my plans

And I found a mountain in the middle of my road

I knew there was no way to move it

So I searched for a way around

Broken-hearted I started climbing

And at the top I found

Every fear, every doubt, all the pain I went through
Was the price that I paid to see this view
Now that I'm here I would never trade
The grace that I feel and the faith that I find
Through the bittersweet tears and the sleepless nights
I used to pray He'd take it all away
But instead it became
A beautiful heartbreak

I never dreamed my heart would make it

And I thought about turning around

But Heaven has shown me miracles

I never would have seen from the ground

Now I take the rain with the sunshine
Cause there's one thing that I know
He picks up the pieces
Along each broken road

Every fear, every doubt, all the pain I went through
Was the price that I paid to see this view
Now that I'm here I would never trade
The grace that I feel and the faith that I find
Through the bittersweet tears and the sleepless nights
I used to pray He'd take it all away
But instead it became
A beautiful heartbreak

 

"I used to pray He'd take it all away...." That is me. I am always, always, praying that my problems will go away. But I realize that this life is a test and we need these challenges in our life to make us stronger. It will make the rewards in life, worth it even more. We will have more joy. We are all given unique challenges in this life, but I know that with the help of our loving Father in Heaven and Savior Jesus Christ, we can overcome them. And we will one day look back and appreciate our own "beautiful heartbreaks."
