The lyrics of this song are so true in my life, but sometimes its easy to loose focus. The enemy loves to put blinders on us.
I am on my way to having knee surgery June 26th, and also an appointment with the foot doctor for the opposite foot. That appointment didn't go so well. Absolutely not at all what I expected to hear. Or the direction I was being sent. But when the lion inside stopped roaring, I listened to that still small voice of my God.
If I told you I wasn't afraid after my appointment, I would be lying to you. I was actually full of fear! After he had me walk and watched my steps, he sat down and ran his fingers through his hair and said: "Kim, this is not what I expected. I think you have Charcot Marie tooth disorder. In short, muscle deterioration that will only get worse in time. Imagine hearing that! Well I focused on it and fell apart right there. He then said: "I need to send you to a neurologist for testing." Well of course I didn't even think of all the prayers that are being prayed for me, and also my own prayers for God's direction of Doctors for everything. I was blinded for a while until I made phone calls to family and friends. Then wouldn't you know it. I put on my Pandora and this song came on. I played it over and over, and kept telling the enemy he was a liar!!!!
God's got this, and me. He is arranging everything as He sees it needs to be. I am confident of that now. God is all knowing. Nothing is a surprise to Him like it can be to us. But God has a plan. He knows me oh so well, and that comforts me, Psalm 139: 1-6.
Fear is the complete opposite of my God. The enemy, with his big mouth, wants to seek to devour, 1 Peter 5:8. I am learning to listen to that still small voice, 1 Kings 19: 11-13.
Here is a beautiful text message I got from a sister in Christ the moment I got in my car to drive home. God's perfect timing before the song came on..... "When something is delayed and not denied, God is shifting things. Putting the right people in place. You are in the Masters hands."
My God is making a way, so I am not afraid.
Much love
Kim D
