Life is throwing some major curve balls at me right now.
I am learning some hard lessons, and going through some majorly faith testing, hard, and trying times. It amazes me to think of just everything that is happening to me right now. Life is getting rough and rather than just throw my hands up and give up, I've decided to buckle my seat belt and cling to the things I know are unshakable. My faith, my family, and the things I love.
I wrote this a few months ago during another tough time:
Thank you God for:
the tears I've cried, because I know you hold each one in your hands
the lessons I've learned, because I know that they have a purpose in your plan for my life
testing me in my faith. It only makes me stronger.
the people I've met, because I know that there is a reason that you have crossed our paths
your everlasting, never changing, always faithful word, the Bible
answering prayers
using the weak to lead the strong
revealing bits and pieces of your plan to me a little at a time
& loving me enough to send your only son to die for my sins.
Looking back on that time that I wrote that, I remember exactly what was testing my faith, and now, it seems like such a little little thing. We all have tough times, we all get through them. I'm going through a tough time, but I am ever so thankful for the lesson that I am learning from this tough time. and I know I'll get through it.
I have been a wayward child,
I have acted out,
I have questioned sovereignty,
and had my share of doubts,
And though sometimes,
my prayers feel like their bouncing off the sky,
the hand that holds won't let me go,
and is the reason why
I will stumble, I will fall down
But I will not be moved
I will make mistakes, I will face heartache,
But I will not be moved
On Christ the solid rock I stand,
All other ground is sinking sand,
I will not be moved
Bitterness has plagued my heart,
many times before,
My life has been a broken glass,
and I have kept the score,
of all my shattered dreams,
and though it seemed,
that I was far too gone,
my brokenness helped me to see,
it's grace I'm standing on.
I will stumble, I will fall down
But I will not be moved
I will make mistakes, I will face heartache,
But I will not be moved
On Christ the solid rock I stand,
All other ground is sinking sand,
I will not be moved
And chaos in my life,
has been a badge I've worn,
and though I have been torn,
I will not be moved
I will make mistakes, I will face heartache,
But i will not be moved
On Christ the solid rock I stand,
all other ground is sinking sand,
I will not be moved
