"It's funny how we do it, compartmentalize
we plan for success and try to pass the pain right by
but it just doesn't work that way
God has a different plan,
He works in ways we'd never see
beyond the scope of man.
(chorus)
When the journey takes a detour unexpectedly
and I try to accept and understand what it all means
when I'm pressed to show the world
what I really believe, I will trust you Lord,
When my heart begins to faint because
I see a life so fray,
and my soul cries out oh Lord how long
can I keep this at bay
in the fiercest part of battle,
when my feet don't want to stay
I will trust you Lord, I will trust you Lord
with my life.
I may not understand it, and even question why
what good could ever come from this
has even crossed my mind
but God's teaching me to trust Him more
as He works His will in me
I rest securely in His care
and surrender sure is sweet!"
2020 has been and continues to be a year I just kind of scratch my head and wonder what in the world is going on. This is not the world I grew up in. I wonder is this the "new normal", how much will we have to adjust or will things go back as they once were. It's not just the virus that puzzles us but so much other stuff also. My cactus that has bloomed the past 2 years at Christmas has now, I believe, finished blooming and it's not even Thanksgiving. My "Pink Perfection" camellias that usually start blooming in January are blooming like crazy right now. Even my potted amaryllis that usually blooms in December has 4 blooms on it now. Maybe it's nature's way of saying let's get 2020 over with. Maybe I need to go outside this morning and see if the daffodils are beginning to pop out of the ground. LOL
If 2020 has taught us anything, I think it can be summed up in Proverbs 3:5.
“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.”
I pray you will blessed as you hear the words of "I Will Trust You Lord" as you listen to The McKameys today!
I hope you will have a good Thursday!!!
Beautiful words for this time of our life!
