Read this today and immediately remembered this powerful song: "If you are going to be used by God, He will take you through a number of experiences that are not meant for you personally at all. They are designed to make you useful in His hands, and to enable you to understand what takes place in the lives of others. Because of this process, you (should) never be surprised by what comes your way. " Oswald Chambers
Thank you Jesus for all you are to the world, Your death , burial and ressurection!!!! giving us Your life to accomplish all that You have prepared for us .Praise the Lord
I can kneel with a brother who is bearing a burden and say I know just what you're going thru I can pray with a sister, in the midst of her sorrow and say I know because I've been there too I can put my arms around someone who is down and tell them to have faith and confidence what in pain I could not see I now believe it means God prepared me for such a time as this. God prepared me for such a time as this.
Then came the clouds and the rain fell thought I'd never make it thru the night but God gave me the answer when I prayed with you He let me see the dark before the light and I can kneel with a brother who is bearing a burden and say I know just what you're going thru I can pray with a sister, in the midst of her sorrow and say I know because I've been there too I can put my arms around someone who is down
Such A Time As This Why did I walk through the valleyWhy was I forced to my knees? Why did the sun parch and dry me, As I walked through the desert of defeat. Then came the clouds and the rain fell, I thought I'd never make it through the night. But God gave me the answer when I prayed with you, He let me see the dark to hold the light. I can kneel with a brother who is bearing a burden And say I know just what you're going through. I can pray with a sister in the midst of her sorrow And say I know because I've been there too. I can put my arms around someone who is down And tell them to have faith and confidence. What in pain I could not see I know fully believe, God prepared me for such a time as this. You may be praying for rescue. You are facing temptations and trials. Struggles are endlessly present, But the purpose is somewhere in God's time. Just keep on walkin' the good road. Night leads to a stronger, wiser day, And when you're asked the reason for the path you have trod, You'll know without a doubt and you can say.... I can kneel with a brother who is bearing a burden And say I know just what you're going through. I can pray with a sister in the midst of her sorrow And say I know because I've been there too. I can put my arms around someone who is down And tell them to have faith and confidence. What in pain I could not see I now truly believe, God prepared me for such a time as this.
Two small corrections... in verse one... "He let me see the dark before the light " --> "He let me see the dark, to hold the light" In the chorus... "what in pain I could not see I now believe it means" I hear... "what in pain I could not see I now fully believe"

Her name is Kelli Shaw, Kelli Moore now She is from Pennsylvania. Her Dad, Boyd, was in a group called The Masters for many years. They were wonderful. They would often have Kelli get up and do a song or two at their concerts when she was a young girl. She could always belt it out. She's currently in a group called New Journey
I just wanted to tell you that even after all of these years, this song is still blessing and encouraging the believers. I believe if we allow God to direct us through our situations, he will give us a ministry of helping like people. Truly, after I lost both parents and my 49 year old husband within 16 months, I did NOT understand how the Lord to use it for good. I was too devastated. BUT GOD brought me through the journey and set up people in my life to help me get through it. But I didn’t feel like I had any calling or direction for the rest of my life. I prayed was reminded of this song. I feel that God will use me to help others who lose there spouses. I’m sorry for the length. Just hoped to encourage you in your ministry.

I remember when this song came out! It moved me to tears and gave me peace of why things happened in my life.
God has blessed and encouraged me through this song during the darkest days of my life.

Such A Time As This
Why did I walk through the valleyWhy was I forced to my knees?
Why did the sun parch and dry me,
As I walked through the desert of defeat.
Then came the clouds and the rain fell,
I thought I'd never make it through the night.
But God gave me the answer when I prayed with you,
He let me see the dark to hold the light.
I can kneel with a brother who is bearing a burden
And say I know just what you're going through.
I can pray with a sister in the midst of her sorrow
And say I know because I've been there too.
I can put my arms around someone who is down
And tell them to have faith and confidence.
What in pain I could not see I know fully believe,
God prepared me for such a time as this.
You may be praying for rescue.
You are facing temptations and trials.
Struggles are endlessly present,
But the purpose is somewhere in God's time.
Just keep on walkin' the good road.
Night leads to a stronger, wiser day,
And when you're asked the reason for the path you have trod,
You'll know without a doubt and you can say....
I can kneel with a brother who is bearing a burden
And say I know just what you're going through.
I can pray with a sister in the midst of her sorrow
And say I know because I've been there too.
I can put my arms around someone who is down
And tell them to have faith and confidence.
What in pain I could not see I now truly believe,
God prepared me for such a time as this.
Two small corrections...
in verse one...
"He let me see the dark before the light " -->
"He let me see the dark, to hold the light"
In the chorus...

I hear...
"what in pain I could not see I now fully believe"
Yes, this is what I hear, thanks for confirming!

Easy living produces shallow people! Suffering produces some strong character!!!
I needed to see these lyrics, so I did my best (please excuse any error)... thought I'd share, and hope these bless you as they do me!
