What's this about?

I am Shannon and my husband is Chris. This is a place to share and process struggles related to miscarriages, eating disorders, and Shannon's struggle with sexual abuse. We have found that joy, exempt of Christ, is often bittersweet in this life. We look forward to heaven where sweetness will abound and bitterness will be gone.

A Better Way by Downhere

One of my dearest and bestest friends (thanks J.F.) reminded me of this awesome song called A Better Way. We used to listen to it while we were roommates at Concordia. That semester was fantastic. Anyhow, I haven't listened to it lately but it is refreshing to remember God's way is the best way possible. Also, it reminds me of all that God has gotten me through since I was a senior in college. He has never left me and He will get me through this hurt and this life. There was NO better way to say I love you than for Jesus to come and die and do what we couldn't do ourselves. So no matter what the circumstances are I remember that.

Here's a link to listen to it on YouTube. I have no idea how to upload videos or put things up here. If anyone has any idea, I'd love to know.

A Better Way by Downhere

I'm not alone, I really believe
You never go, You never leave
Here and now, You always stay
“I love you” could not be said a better way

It's everything You've promised
There's no greater love than this
From prophets until today
A man laying down His life for His friends
Your sacrifice has spoken, You gave everything
And “I love you” could not be said
A better way

I am forgiven, I clearly see
It's why You came to do all you did for me
Trading earth with heaven, You took my place
“I love you” could not be said
A better way

Because You redeem, I know what's to come
Everything I could lose here, You've already won
So You have my surrender, with passion obey
“I love you” could not be said
A better way
