Grounded in His Word

Grounded in His Word
by Beth Fisher

Sometimes I feel like giving up, just throwing in the towel,
When all I feel is pain and doubt, and start to wonder how
I'll ever make it through the day, and through the long, dark night.
But somehow, Lord, You come along, and make everything all right.

No, you don't always remove the pain, but You give me strength to endure.
When I feel Your presence near me, it makes me know for sure
That no matter what may come my way, somehow we'll get through it.
I just lean on You, and do my part, the only way I know to do it.

If I'm grounded in Your Word, Lord, I can see how you've helped others:
For Job, Paul, David and Noah are all my Christian brothers.
Lord, You helped them out, when things looked bleak and dark.
Somehow, they came out better, though they did bear the mark.

The mark that You place on Your servants' hearts, to show we're Yours.
Our having gotten through our trial, show Your strength endures.
It gives us the chance to witness to those who would never hear
The story of how You died for us, despite and sins and fear.

Thank you

you know thats really true what you wrote and if its that simple and easy . . .just to lean and trust. . .I wonder why we fight things so hard sometimes first . . . instead of leaning and trusting first. . .

My hubby said the other day when he had dry hands and got the *good* soothing cream from the pharmacy out. . .: You know . . .sometimes we really treat God like this cream . . .when our hands/lives get to hurtin. . .we know where to get Him/it and use it/Him . . .and once we feel better. . .we put it/Him up back up in purses or shelves!

Hit me like a rock! Its true . . .

Thanks for sharing your thoughts
