Jeremy Camp's personal experience of suffering

On February 5, 2001, my first wife, Melissa, went to be with the Lord after struggling with ovarian cancer. When she took her last breath, I felt God urging me to raise my hands and worship Him.  As God taught me an important lesson about obeying Him, I sang.  Somehow, the Holy Spirit carries us through pain and suffering, with such tenderness, when we submit to Him. At the heart of true worship and praise to God, my mind, heart and will must submit before Him.  This authentic worship prepares my heart to be molded and used as He sees fit.
