music monday// faithful

it's monday! time for some music!

the words to this song have become a personal prayer i whisper to myself these days. i'm in a season where i really need God to direct me and confirm His words to me concerning certain things. some plans i had which i committed to Him aren't falling through as i hoped. but i know He's here. He will lead me. 

faithful ~ brooke fraser

there's distance in the air and i cannot make it leave,

i wave my arms round about me and blow with all my might

i cannot sense You close, though i know You're always here

but the comfort of You near is what i long for.

when i can't feel You, i have learned to reach out just the same

when i can't hear You, i know You still hear every word i pray

and i want You more than i want to live another day

and as i wait for You maybe i'm made more faithful.

all the folly of the past, though i know it is undone,

i still feel the guilty one, still trying to make it right

so i whisper soft Your name, let it roll around my tongue

knowing You're the only one who knows me. You know me.

show me how i should live this,

show me where i should go.

i count this world as loss to me.

You are all i want. You are all i want.

"and we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose." romans 8:28

be encouraged that He is near and He has a great plan better than your dreams. keep believing. 

have a lovely day! :)

p.s {as i was writing this blog, God showed up in the form of someone, filled with kindness, with a bill i didn't request for in hand for me. tell me He isn't close! i can get the things i need to get after work with it without using my strictly budgeted money. :) He is near, He listens.}
