Encouraging Song for the Day! God Moves in a Mysterious Way

 

God Move in A Mysterious Way

 

God moves in a mysterious way

His wonders to perform

He plants His footsteps in the sea

And rides upon the storm

Deep in unfathomable mines

Of never failing skill

He treasures up His bright designs

And works His sovereign will

Ye fearful saints fresh courage take

The clouds ye so much dread

Are big with mercy and shall break

In blessing on your head

Judge not the Lord by feeble sense

But trust Him for His grace

Behind a frowning providence

He hides a smiling face

His purposes will ripen fast

Unfolding every hour

The bud may have a bitter taste

But sweet with be the flower

Blind unbelief is sure to err

And scan His work in vain

God is His own interpreter

And He will make it plain

The pain is sure to scar and wound

Fierce tears are bound to fall

But God who holds thee in pierced hands

Works powerfully in it all

Frail bodies yet may waste away

Trials press from every side

They make a blest weight of glory

And grow thy deep delight

Judge not the Lord by feeble sense

But trust Him for His grace

Behind a frowning providence

He hides a smiling face

 Okay, I've calmed down, after a hospital stint for 12 days, and 6 weeks of outpatient therapy.  I've still got a lot of recovery work to do and things to heal from and places to go that may be dark and emotionally scary.  But, wow, I'm so blessed, I've got so much support and love from people all around.  I had meals come to me magically for over a month from friends, and I'm not driving yet get everywhere I need to go from all kinds of friends!  So, thank you for your prayers and support.  I certainly can use them. I do struggle with anxiety, and it's hard to know, am I manic, or anxious, or nervous, or actually calm somehow.  I'm sleeping alright, I wish it was always a consecutive 8 hours, but it seems I wake up to go the bathroom.  Usually I fall back asleep, but sometimes my mind goes and I get up to journal or write a song, something quiet.  It worries mom obviously when my light goes on.  I really don't want to go back to the hos...

Our Lives ARE NOT COINCIDENCE!!!

  In 2009 I lost my mind.   Or at least I lost the ability to communicate what was on my mind… Well, there definitely was some delusional thinking mixed in I suppose… particularly when I was in the hospital it got bad, leading up to that I’m not sure what was delusion and what was me learning to walk in faith instead of fear… Which, I completely lost momentum in that voyage quickly after my hospital stint.   I digress.   The year 2009… I determined would be a year of JOY.   That was it.   I’d lived with bitterness and resentment over my life’s circumstances for too long.   I was here, in Clemmons, for a reason. I vividly remember that New Years Resolution, actually.   It came from a place of prayer and surrender.   Maybe all of my life I’ve fought God’s will more, or resisted it, than submitted, I’m not sure.   Maybe that’s all of our struggle.              ...
