Useless... powerless...
It's a funny thing to hear a therapist say. Sometimes I just don't know how to comfort someone. All I want to say is that everything is going to be ok. I want to give them a hug. But we can't do either.Since coming back from the states, I have felt smashed. All the things I thought I was good at, gifted at, that used to come easy- for some reason is now a mess. I've been hiding the sense of feeling almost defeated and the hole just getting deeper and deeper. But I am not at the end of the road.
Friends, families, strangers come to me seeking answers, comfort. They want me to say that it will be ok. There is some simple solution to fix their present problems.
Will prayer automatically write your assignment? fix your relationship? heal your hurts and pains? automatically heal your sickness? I am 100% sure God can do it if he wills it. But instead, have you stopped to consider that even in the darkest moments, God is still there?
No matter what you are going through at the moment- whether it's a good or bad season, whether its night or day, God is there. Faith is just that-
Center of it- chris august
Lyrics: http://www.tabsforworship.com/tab/2979.htm
Somedays I'm feelin' like I Can't win, can't get it right and it Don't matter how hard I try Today is not my day When it feels like I'm going crazy And it looks like nothings changing Come sun come rainy day You are still the same CHORUS
In the dark, in the light In the morning and night In the good, in the hurt In the places I hide When I rise, when I fall You'll be there through it all At the start, at the end In the center of the center of it Some nights I lay awake and I Can't push these thoughts away I'm worried where I'm gonna go Where I'm gonna be are You gonna be there for me When it feels like the doors are closing Gotta trust that You're doing something Come sun come rainy day You are all I need There will be days I will forget Everything You've done for me But when I go back there again I'm remindedIn the dark, in the light In the morning and night
The center of it all, the center of it In the loss, in the win In the beauty and the sin At the start, at the end In the center of the center of it
