You know last night I realized that I am very far from where God wants me to be. And I was slipping further and further away. Just little compromises here and there, but they were pulling me away.
I was up last night praying and talking with God. I want to serve him, and do his will, but it is not always easy. I have to be willing to forsake all others and follow him, can I do that, I am praying. I could use a friend to talk to, but there's not anyone that I can. So I keep on praying, God said he can meet all my needs! I am praying and waiting.
It lifts a heavy burden off me to be back depending on God, I am not able to do it myself.
Sometimes you wonder why the ones you love and care about can not see how you are hurting, and how you really feel. Guess we get good at hiding things, pretending is so much easier than the real thing. it is so much easier to put on that happy face of contentment than to be glummy all the time. Who needs that.
God is helping me cope. He is a real friend, he promises to never forsake me, to never leave me, and to always be there for me. I am grateful.
Keep on hanging on, we have come to far to turn and go back now.
I've been tired and I've been weary,
I've been footsore on my journey
But I've come to far to ever turn around.
I've seen day when clouds hung dreary
many times when friends weren't cheary.
but I've come to far to turn and go back now.
Chorus:
I am one day closer home, than I've ever been before
In my heart I have a longing just to walk on heavens shore.
In my soul I feel the glory of this brand new peace I've found,
I'm way to close to turn and go back now.
I've been tempted and I've been tested
my progress seemed arrested,
I can truly say God has never let me down.
In the battle I've retreated,
but I've never been defeated.
I've come to far to turn and go back now.
Chorus
I am one day closer home, than I've ever been before
In my heart I have longing, just to walk on heavens shore
In my soul I feel the glory of this bran new peace I've found
I'm way to close to turn and go back now.
Did you come up with that? I didn't know you wrote songs? I ask because I looked up the lyrics so I could find that song and listen to it, but ummm, I got no results. That's really kool either way.
ReplyDeleteI'm too young to be your friend, but know that you are loved by many.
I know what it's like to be hurting and having no one notice. You feel pretty lonely until you finally open up to someone. Talk to Mr. Skip. God gives us friends and family for a reason.
Unconditionally, Bree :)
No did not write that one, its one we sing in church. Thanks for being so caring, me and God we got a good thin going! We are going to work it out. Skips not a talker, but I am sure God will send just the right person at just the right time, he always does!
