Phillip LaRue - Faith In God!

Black and Blue is about my beautiful, lovely sister Breanna who was actually born dead and revived on the spot. And, but unfortunately, due to the fact of the loss of blood flow in her body she has Cerebral Palsy. And so she can’t talk very well and she can’t walk and she needs assistance 24/7.

I mean, a lot of people on the outside of that circumstance would go, “What a burden.” And, you know, it is hard for my family, but it’s also been the super glue for me and God in my family. But she’s at a place right now where everyday is a gift and we don’t know how much longer she has. And it could be tomorrow or it could be two years, five years, five weeks, you know, we just don’t know. So, that song, Black and Blue, I wrote it when we thought we were going to lose her last year. She was in the hospital. She got a simple cold, like like we all get during the flu season, but for her because her immune system is so different, it really knocked her out. So I wrote that song in the hospital because I was going to sing it to her before, you know, she fell asleep and awoke to see God face to face. So, that’s when I wrote that song.

But a lot of times there’s those moments in our life as people where we can’t connect the dots and that’s okay. That’s when faith kicks in. We have to believe. It’s like a mosaic, you know, uh if you’re looking at a mosaic and you’re, you know, five inches away from it, you know, it doesn’t look like much of a painting at all. It looks messy, blurry, it looks horrible really. It doesn’t make sense. But we have to believe in those circumstances when we can’t connect the dots that-that God is standing, you know, 15-20 feet behind us and He sees the big picture. So, uh, I think, for my record, it’s writing songs, looking directly on the mosaic and going, “Life is messy,” but also writing songs from the perspective of God sees the bigger picture. And uh, hopefully uh people will hear the hope through those songs and hopefully get inspired to-to believe God in those midst of those circumstances that are the desert seasons of your life.
