Faith

Last night I was reaching a point in the silence of wondering why I had lost everything. Why my life had taken the turns it had. A friend wrote me to say your life is a blank white page. I guess, I struggle, do I really want to start all over again, go through it all over again and all the steps. I was really hoping that I wouldn't, that my life would come back together. As I sit here today, I know that the lessons I have learned have been countless and only time will tell what those lessons are for. It is walking by faith night by sight. Last night as I struggled, I was looking for something to listen to and the first song that came to me was this:

Kutless - What Faith Can Do
Everybody falls sometimes
Gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes and make a new beginning
Anyone can feel the ache
You think it's more than you can take
But you are stronger, stronger than you know
Don't you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do

It doesn't matter what you've heard
Impossible is not a word
It's just a reason for someone not to try
Every body's scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It'll be alright
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do

Overcome the odds
You don't have a chance
(That's what faith can do)
When the world says you can't
It'll tell you that you can!

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do
That's what faith can do!
Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise

How fitting is that. I am thankful that I have my life and I can rise with Gods help from the ashes of the destruction. I have tried to do it every other time, maybe it is time to see what God gives me. One day at a time, resting in His love for me and learning more and more each day of the days to come. More of Him, less of me.
