Video of the Week : Laura Story and "Blessings"

I deeply appreciate Laura Story's song "Blessings".  It is more than just a touching song for me.  It helps articulate the hope and the uncertainty of faith for someone who is going through some of the toughest times in their life.  The chorus sums up this grand "What if...." perfectly.    

'Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise."

"Blessings" by Laura Story



This week's "Video of the Week" is a two for one because I just had to share the story behind "Blessings" told by Laura Story herself.  Enjoy!
