Between impossible papers due soon, hard tests coming up fast, health problems with so many complications, very little sleep, restricted activities, and screwy relationships, I'm feeling a good many reasons to scream, swear, and just generally throw a hissy fit. But I have been meditating on a verse in James 1: 4 that advises me otherwise. I spend my free hours digging through the Bible looking for verses to hold on to as my world spins out of control and I sing myself this song.....
God, my God, I cry out
Your beloved needs You now
God, be near, calm my fear
And take my doubt
Your kindness is what pulls me up
Your love is all that draws me in
I will lift my eyes to the Maker
Of the mountains I can’t climb
I will lift my eyes to the Calmer
Of the oceans raging wild
I will lift my eyes to the Healer
Of the hurt I hold inside
I will lift my eyes, lift my eyes to You
God, my God, let Mercy sing
Her melody over me
God, right here all I bring
Is all of me
‘Cause You are and You were and You will be forever
The Lover I need to save me
‘Cause You fashioned the earth and You hold it together, God
So hold me now
So, now that every mountain and every hill for that matter, has become something I literally can't climb, I lift my eyes and ask him to hold me.
