I Will Follow You

Don't know where to begin
Its like my world's caving in
And I try but I can't control my fear
Where do I go from here?

Sometimes its so hard to pray
When you feel so far away
But I am willing to go
Where you want me to
God, I trust you

There's a raging sea
Right in front of me
Wants to pull me in
Bring me to my knees
So let the waters rise
If you want them to
I will follow you

I will swim in the deep
Cuz you'll be next to me
You're in the eye of the storm
And the calm of the sea
You'll never be out of reach

God, you know where I've been
You were there with me then
You were faithful before
You'll be faithful again
I'm holding your hand

There's a raging sea
Right in front of me
Wants to pull me in
Bring me to my knees
So let the waters rise
If you want them to
I will follow you

God your love is enough
You will pull me through
I'm holding onto you
God your love is enough

Parts of a song by Mikeschair



This song has played a million times in the last few weeks over and over again in my mind. I sing it through out the day. I've met those times when it feels like your entire world may collapse. My backs been against a wall and I've faltered and even fallen flat on my face. During some of those intense times of trial I wondered, "God do you hear me, are you listening; are you even there?" But each time I was in the eye of the storm he reminded me that he knew where I'd been, that he loved me even then, that he had been faithful to show up each time I needed him and always "on time". We forget sometimes that we have an "enemy" and he wants to pick us apart, it says Satan came to kill, steal, and destroy. He wants us to fail, to surrender, to give up; he wants to pull us to our knees. He wants to drive us so deep that we believe we will drown in that raging sea, but hear me child of a King, he's been faithful before and he WILL be faithful again. God will always be enough, he will always make a way; he will always go before you, he will always see you through this time of trial. And above all I pray whatever God's will for my life be "then let it be". We will be tested and tried, no doubt about that, but it's been said "if God be for us who can be against us". If we'd only get it deep down in our souls, if we'd only remember what God's always been, if we'd only remember where he brought us from, if we'd only give him all of us, and then fully trust and rely on God to handle every aspect of our lives. If we'd really believe that God ALWAYS comes through we will ENDURE.

And Remember
YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB ON THIS SINGLE PARENT JOURNEY
God Bless You!!
