I think God's been giving me like a crash course on faith - if there's such a thing. I've been so blessed by the people He's placed around me, the circumstances He's placed me in (though they're not always the easiest), the lessons He's been teaching me, His answers to my prayers as I learn to ask in faith and how He reveals Himself to me.I think beyond His answers to my prayers which i'm really thankful for, what truly overwhelms and overjoys me is simply knowing Him. He's so faithful and so attentive to the things i ask for and as Mich puts it, His heart is inclined towards me. Even as BS with my cg today was about our spiritual blessings in Christ, I'm still learing to grasp them, especially His love for me - it's extent, it's vastness, it's measurelessness, it's depth...And so despite my circumstances and whatever season I'm in, I know that when my desire is to know Him, He will reveal to me more of His character and being. And oh it's so wonderful how He shows me things i never knew and in ways I never imagined! : )The lyrics of this song sum up neatly what I've been learning:Take My hand and walk where I leadkeep your eyes on Me alonedon't you say why were the old days betterjust because you're scared of the unknowntake My hand and walkDon't live in the pastcause yesterday's gonewishing memories would lastyou're afraid to carry onyou don't know what's comin'but you know the one who holds tomorrowI will be your guidetake you through the nightif you keep your eyes on MeTake my hand and walk where I leadKeep your eyes on me alonedon't you say why were the old days betterjust because you're afraid of the unknowntake my hand and walk where I leadyou will never be alonefaith is to be sure of what you hope forand the evidence of things unseenso take my hand and walkJust like a childholding daddy's handdon't let go of mineyou know you can't standon your own~take my hand and walk - The Kry~
