Lyrical Latte Monday-June 2013

The following song is Worn by Tenth Avenue North. It was inspired by Mike Donehey's (the lead vocalist) struggles and trails with having young kids.  Sometimes it's really difficult and let's face it, kids don't seem to need any sleep...especially young ones. :)  Which in turn, means little to no sleep for the parents.  

I first heard this song a few months ago and it was in the same time frame that our oldest was teething and we weren't getting much sleep.  First, I connected with the song, and then when I heard what inspired Mike to write the lyrics, it helped to bring me peace and strength.  No matter what age your children are, there will be times in life's journey that you may feel tired and worn. Seek the Lord on behalf of your children. God honors that big time. 
 I hope this song and the message behind it brings you strength.
