the song lyrics ... "My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth" has been playing over and over in my head. It started while I was taking a shower. Usually I stop whatever I am doing and let the song speak to me. I was busy yesterday, thought about it and well... that's as far as it went. So here he is reminding me this morning about the song again. (Psalm 121) Okay. I am listening.
It took me a minuete to figure out what song it actually was. I think I found it.
Now, let me listen...
"for you are who you are no matter where I am."
"You never left my side"
YES!!! He is talking to me, reminding me it is He who has been helping me and will continue to.
The song is actually called, "Praise You in this Storm" by Casting Crowns.
I believe he put this song on my heart because of the storm I am in. He is trying to tell me that he hears my cry. He has collected my tears. I am not alone.
The enemy may feel I am surrounded but the truth is I am, I am surrounded by YOU LORD! You have my hand.
I am blessed because of his faithfulness. Not because of what I have done but because of who I am. I am HIS and I am kept.
Through this past year God has really shown me that He is with me. His voice has become very clear to me. I am able to hear and discern clearly. Within moments, I see the miracles unfolding. Maybe because I finally surrendered my free will for His way. I am trusting him completely to care for me, reminded of all the times before He has come through in my darkest hours. Through ways I would have never imagined. And how through FORGIVENESS miracles are made.
I've seen it before, I can tell it's about to happen again.
