resting in His Love

My great-nephew Jacob with his mom, Rebekkah.

This has been a crazy week in so many ways.  When I heard this song this morning on my way to work, I was sure it was written for me.  I don't know what I'd do if it weren't for music.  Things have felt completely out of control and it's so comforting to know He will never leave me.

I can't believe I question Him and His plan.  It seems after God brings me through something I can give Him credit, but at the time I don't rely on Him like I should. I would have so much more Peace in it if I did.  He wants me to trust and cling to Him.   I'm glad He's the God of 2nd chances... and 3rd... and 4th.




I have looked you in the eyes
I have seen the tears you cried
I have heard you question why you are here

There is a reason, there’s a plan
There is a God Who understands
He’s got your life inside His hands
Have no fear
Cuz He says

In all your hurt and in all your pain
I’ll never leave, I won’t forsake
You’re my child and I’m your God
Come and rest in my love

I know this road is deep
And I know you’re tired and weak
But the God of perfect peace is right here

He is the shelter from the storm
He is the rock forth and secure
He is hope forever more
Have no fear
Cuz He says

In all your hurt and in all your pain
I’ll never leave, I won’t forsake
You’re my child and I’m your God
Come and rest in my love
When everything seems out of control
I’m holding on, I won’t let go
You’re my child and I’m your God
Come and rest in my love

There is hope tonight
There is everlasting life
Dry away your tears
Coz tomorrow is on the rise
Love will never fail
He will never fail
He says

In all your hurt and in all your pain
I’ll never leave, I won’t forsake
You’re my child and I’m your God
Come and rest in my love
When everything seems out of control
I’m holding on, I won’t let go
You’re my child and I’m your God
Come and rest in my love
In my love
In my love

I don't know what's going on in your life, but I can relate to the "Things have felt completely out of control" part, though. Praying you experience His peace - the peace that surpasses all understanding and will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus! ~ Hugs

Listend to the song below, too. YOu have some really neat songs on here.

Empty-nest. Cheryl and I have one left at home - senior in high school. We know we are in for a significant transition in Aug 2011.
I plan on going back to school for another degree. Will have the time (maybe not the money :).

What is the best job I've ever had?
