Breathe In (intro)

[Pastor Art Gordon]
We love it when the sun is out
We often find it pretty sad and disappointing when the sun is in fact covered
And all we can see above us is clouds

Cloudy days have gone on to symbolize tough times, sadness, disappointment, and depression
In fact, even on days now when it is cloudy you can sense that more people seem to be even sadder on a cloudy day
They might have money in their pockets, but if it's a cloudy day, sometimes the sense we get from other people is that they are in fact quite sad. (Breathe in, breathe out)

Cloudy days are the days when you go to bed hungry and you wonder how you might feed yourself and your children when tomorrow comes. (Breathe in, breathe out)
Cloudy days is when big momma is in the ICU and when that loved one ends up passing away, cloudy days are days when you have to gather their clothes and go down to the funeral home so the funeral home can dress your loved one up and get prepared for the funeral service. (Breathe in, breathe out)
Cloudy days are the days when you find yourself at the cemetery and they lower your loved one into the ground. (Breathe in, breathe out)
Cloudy days are the days when the relationship you been involved in, it looked so good and everything was working out only to realize that what you thought was good for you, it wasn't good for you at all. (Breathe in, breathe out)

Breathe in, breathe out

[Pastor Art Gordon]
Beloved, if you've never experienced a cloudy - I'm sure you have - but if you haven't experienced a cloudy day, just keep on living. Because cloudy days will come
