The Last Comic Standing

I truly believe that God is the "Last Comic Standing"!! Over the past few years, I have come to believe that God has a sense of humor! He always seems to give me a lesson but with some kind of twist. Like when we got pregnant with the boys. It took us three years to get pregnant with Kevin and we figures that it would take just as long to get pregnant with Matt....only two months of trying and we were pregnant....we were totally not prepared but are so thankful for the gifts he gave us when we received them
God often teaches me through song. I love contemporary christian music, it touches my soul and I can freely raise my hands in worship. Casting Crowns is an amazing group and their song, "I will praise you in the storm" and help me get through a couple dark nights. I also really like the band, Third Day. It was the first Christian concert I attended and the first time I raised my hands in worship(I will never forget that feel, hands raised and tears falling).
So, this morning I was walking the boys into daycare and the hall lights were all off and all you could really see was the light at the end of the hall. So, me by me,I started singing, "There's a light at the end of the tunnel....there's a light at the end of the tunnel for you....for you". I didn't really think the words I was singing....I was just singing. Then I get to my office and get the computer all plugged in, turn on the ihome and what song you come on the radio but, "There's a light at the end of the tunnel. So, I have to stop and think of what God is trying to tell me, what is the big picture here. I thought about it and right now trying to sell this house is killing Tom and I. We are under so much stress trying to get everything done and get the house sold. We know we are going to have to live a part but for how long. But today, I had a peace about the whole thing...there is a light at the end of the tunnel...and my light is Jesus Christ. We know this move will be a success if we remember to keep our eyes on Him. I know everything will work out but with God's sense of humor, who knows how its going to end.
Below are the lyris to the song....

I won't pretend to know what you're thinking
I can't begin to know what you're going through
I won't deny the pain that you're feeling
But I'm gonna try and give a little hope to you

Just remember what I've told you
There's so much you're living for

There's a light at the end of this tunnel
There's a light at the end of this tunnel
For you, for you
There's a light at the end of this tunnel
Shinin' bright at the end of this tunnel
For you, for you
So keep holdin' on

You've got your disappointments and sorrows
You ought to share the weight of that load with me
Then you will find that the light of tomorrow
Brings a new life for your eyes to see

So remember what I've told you
There's so much you're living for
