***God works in mysterious and amazing ways! Loved your line about, ‘I held on to him for Dear Life!’ *HEART***
Diana and Beau, I’ll bet you’ve heard this song before. It always gets me. ❤️
Bless the Broken Road
Rascal Flatts
I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn’t see how every sign pointed straight to you
That every long-lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart, they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Yes, He did
I think about the years I spent just passin’ through
I’d like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You’ve been there, you understand
It’s all part of a grander plan that is coming true
Every long-lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart, they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Yeah
And now I’m just a-rollin’ home
Into my lover’s arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, mm, mm.

One of my favorite songs. Totally the story of my niece who traveled that ‘broken road’, endured some serious heartbreak, finally found the ‘right’ guy, & her dreams of being happily married, children (they have 2 little boys) & living on a small farm, have all come true. I can’t listen to that song without thinking of her - makes me cry (happy tears).
I love that band! Thanks for the reminder of SUCH a good song! :)
