Several weeks ago, during my prayer time, I began to feel discouraged. Has this ever happened to you?
I looked at the needs that I had written out before me- not my own, but those of the people closest to me and just began to feel sad. It seemed as though everyone around me was going through something. Unemployment. Marriage difficulties. Health issues. Family issues. I could feel my heart sink as I went through the list. I just felt so sad. What was my one little prayer going to do for any of these people? Why isn’t God intervening in these situations?
My discouragement stayed with me for a few days until I heard this song. It reminded me that we are to live by faith, not sight. We are to wait on the Lord and be of good courage. We are to trust in the Lord with our entire heart and not depend on our own understanding of things. It reminded me that the joy of the Lord is our strength. Our Father is the ultimate healer and redeemer of our brokenness. I hope it encourages you, too. ~ Shiney
I can’t see
What’s in front of me
Still I will trust You
Still I will trust You
Steady heart that keeps on going
Steady love that keeps on holding
Lead me on
Steady grace that keeps forgiving
Steady faith that keeps believing
Lead me on
Though the sky is dark
And the wind is wild
You’ll never leave me
You’ll never leave me
Though the night is long
There is a coming dawn
The light is breaking
The light is breaking
And as the dawn breaks
And the clouds clear
In an open space
Together we will run
