Last week I struggled and broke down because my fears overwhelmed me. And somehow I was able to overcome my fears and start the journey to facing them. And it was then that I put Big Daddy Weave’s album When The Light Comes on, and I Know gave me the reassurance to face my fear.
You don’t answer all my questions,
But you hear me when I speak,
You don’t keep my heart from breakin’,
But when it does, you weep with me,
You’re so close that I can feel you,
When I’ve lost the words to pray,
And though my eyes have never seen you,
I’ve seen enough to say…
I know that you are good,
I know that you are kind,
I know that you are so much more,
Than what I leave behind,
I know that I am loved,
I know that I am safe,
Cause even in the fire to live is Christ, to die is gain,
I know that you are good.
Even though I know that God is good and kind. It wasn’t knowing that calmed my fears, it wasn’t a reminder that calmed my fears, it was only God. I don’t know what it was, but He changed my attitude and gave me strength and courage.
I don’t understand the sorrow,
But you’re calm within the storm,
Sometimes this weight is overwhelming,
But I don’t carry it alone,
You’re still close when I can’t feel you,
I don’t have to be afraid,
And though my eyes have never seen you,
I’ve seen enough to say…
On my darkest day,
From my deepest pain,
Through it all, my heart,
Will choose to sing your praise…
In a dark moment God came through for me, it wasn’t about what I knew, what I read or what I did, it was simply God rescuing me in that moment. And because He rescued me then I Know I can trust Him for the future.
