Just Hold On...

So many times I’ve questioned certain circumstances
Or things I could not understand
Many times in trials, weakness blurs my vision
And my frustrations get so out of hand
It’s then I am reminded I’ve never been forsaken
I’ve never had to stand the test alone
As I look at all the victories, the Spirit rises up in me
It’s through the fire my weakness is made strong
And He never promised the cross would not get heavy and the hill would not be hard to climb
He never offered victory without fighting but He said help would always come in time
Just remember when you’re standing in the valley of decision and the adversary says give in
Just hold on, our Lord will show up and He will take you through the fire again

I know within myself that I would surely perish
But if I trust the hand of God, He’ll shield the flames again
He never promised the cross would not get heavy and the hill would not be hard to climb
Just hold on, our Lord will show up and He will take you through the fire again.

This song came on tonight on my CD player as I driving back from dropping the kids off at my mom's. Lately I have been letting the little stuff cloud my mind and really bother me and I start to question myself and those around me. Silly stuff really...but when this song came on it reminded me that He doesn't promise a cake walk of life but one of support and comfort in the tough times and that there will be some. Just what I needed to hear. Then the next song on the Cd was "Breathe On Me"...it was like a nice fitting follow up song to how I was feeling. And I am highlighting some of my favorite lines...and ones that just hit home for me.

In humble adoration
I kneel your throne
In brokenness I seek your face alone Above you there’s no other Who’s able to restore my soul Come and make me whole

Breathe on me
Power of god come in and change me
You are all i need
Holy spirit breathe on me

I’m ready to surrender
To give you all my life
No matter what the cost or sacrifice
Reveal to me your calling
Cleanse me from my prideful ways Use me now i pray

Breathe on me
Power of god come in and change me
You are all i need
Holy spirit breathe on me

I will say of the lord
He is my strong tower
My rock and my fortress in whom i trust
In times of the storm and in tribulation
He is my help and my salvation
Breath of god, restore my soul

It was like I was having my own personal moment with God there in my car...To end my singing and songs for the trip home was...Holy is the Lord God Almighty...the earth is filled with his glory...and then I saw this in the sky...



AMAZING!!!
