If you are like me, you struggle often with things of this world. Things like fitting in, feeling loved, and juggling life's demands...just to name a few. It's so easy to get caught up in our feelings towards circumstances in this life and again, if you're like me, it can be disheartening. I frequently feel as if there should be more to life. Like I'm missing something, ya know!? Then it occurred to me, until the time of His return I will always feel like that because THERE IS MORE!! Thank God!
This morning, we sang a song in church that I have not heard in a very long time. The words touched me so deeply and allowed me to experience God in a way that I haven't since my Emmaus walk. I cherish the moments when I feel God's presence as I did this morning. It reminds me that I'm not alone...He is always with me (even if I don't "feel" Him) It may sound basic to say that God is always with us, but it's in child-like truths like these that I find comfort and restoration.
Here are a few lines from the song "You Hold Me Now" by Hillsong United
In this life I will stand through my joy and my pain
Knowing there’s a greater day, there’s a hope that never fails
Where Your name is lifted high and forever praises rise
For the glory of Your name I’m believing for the day
Where the wars and violence cease all creation lives in peace
Let the songs of heaven rise to You alone
No weeping, no hurt or pain, no suffering
You hold me now, You hold me now
No darkness, no sick or lame, no hiding
You hold me now, You hold me now
