I'm loving this song right now! I LOVE the honesty in these lyrics, they are REAL. Some times I think we expect everything to be perfect in life, we expect to have no troubles in our life in this world, however, that isn't how this world is. Heaven will be perfect, this world is not perfect...
No matter what today or tomorrow brings, we must trust in God. As the song says, we won't always get the answers we want, we will go through hard times in this life, however, "no matter what we face, He is by our side." God knows what each day brings, He won't leave us alone in our troubles, we just need to trust in HIM.
I've added a link to this song and the lyrics....
Go on, sing along with me at the top of your lungs, you know you want to... Hahaha :-D

Trust in You, By Lauren Daigle
Letting go of every single dream
I lay each one down at Your feet
Every moment of my wandering
Never changes what You see
I've tried to win this war I confess
My hands are weary I need Your rest
Mighty Warrior, King of the fight
No matter what I face, You're by my side
When You don't move the mountains I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!
Truth is, You know what tomorrow brings
There's not a day ahead You have not seen
So, in all things be my life and breath
I want what You want Lord and nothing less
When You don't move the mountains I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!
You are my strength and comfort
You are my steady hand
You are my firm foundation; the rock on which I stand
Your ways are always higher
Your plans are always good
There's not a place where I'll go, You've not already stood
When You don't move the mountains I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!
I will trust in You!
Throughout my life, I have had trust issues. One day I had enough of these issues and I cried out to God to help me...Did God snap HIS fingers and take these issues away from me? No (I know He can do that though), God showed me the way to find peace, I had to trust Him. I felt my heart prompt me to start writing about my feelings, so I started writing. First I started writing (typing) about how my trust issues made me feel and the pain and heartache they caused me. Through my writings, God showed me why I reacted the way I did when people got close to me, and He then showed me where the trust issues stemmed from. He showed me that I needed to forgive, really forgive the people who had hurt me, so that I could be free from the heavy chains around my neck, and so I could have peace in trusting in God and in trusting in people.
Do I have perfect trust for people now, no. I still have a little scar that I believe will heal completely in time, however, that little scar does NOT hinder me like it did before, it does not hold me back like it did before. If people now break my trust, it hurts me, BUT it does NOT open that old wound up again with all its disgusting infection that would in the past immobilize me. Now, even if people hurt me in this same way, I may feel hurt but I quickly forgive and keep moving forward, keep loving people, keep loving and trusting in GOD.
To my astonishment, God counselled me through my writings. I wrote pages, and pages, and pages, until there was nothing else to write. The gaping wound, turned into a little scar that is barely visible to the naked eye, only God knows how big that gaping wound once was.
Why did I share this? to be completely honest, I don't know. I just wanted to share the link to one of my fave songs, however, once I shared the link, I also felt to share this. I hope sharing this can help anyone reading it, even in a small way. Know that you are not alone! Everyone has had, or has an issue or 2. We are not perfect people, but we don't need to live with these heavy chains around our necks holding us back from being who we are created to be. We can live and walk in peace and freedom. We may not get healed in an instant (although that can 100% happen), however, we can cry out to God and persist in prayer. God has a way. Don't give up on receiving healing, don't give up on God, because HE won't give up on you! HE is the healer of the broken hearted xox
OK, I went on a bit, Sorry!
Now go groove to this BEAUTIFUL song xoxox
Love,
Dimi
