Faithful

I've been praying this morning mostly for peace. Either way, Lord, peace. Then I decided at the urging of my sweet husband to make a conscious choice to stop stressing so much about all this. Not just the Australia thing, but so much going on in my life right now that is beyond my control. By nature, I am a thinker...I think things to DEATH. I'm literally making myself sick over it all, and in turn I'm making him unnecessarily stressed. So I got up and put on my Pandora worship station and heard this song. It's about all I can say for myself right now. Maybe I'll have more later.

Faithful
Brooke Fraser

There's distance in the air and I cannot make it leave
I wave my arms round about me and blow with all my might
I cannot sense You close, though I know You're always here
But the comfort of You near is what I long for

When I can't feel You, I have learned to reach out just the same
When I can't hear You, I know You still hear every word I pray
And I want You more than I wanna live another day
And as I wait for You maybe I'm made more faithful

All the folly of the past, though I know it is undone
I still feel the guilty one, still trying to make it right
So I whisper soft your name, let it roll around my tongue
Knowing You're the only one who knows me
You know me

When I can't feel You, I have learned to reach out just the same
When I can't hear You, I know You still hear every word I pray
And I want You more than I wanna live another day
And as I wait for You maybe I'm made more faithful

Show me how I should live this
Show me where I should walk
I count this world as loss to me
You are all I want
You are all I want
