God IS in Control

 

After a roller coaster week full of emotions and medical news, I decided to take a run this afternoon before going to work to clear my head.  I felt my faith attempting to be shaken, questions and yelling filling up my being as diagnosis after diagnosis came in this week, and then just as things were calming down, we got news that Daddy needs a procedure done too.  So, I went for a run…

I have an exercise mix that we put together 3 years ago.  I listen to it in nearly the same order every time I use my iPod.  Bryan changed it up a little when he used it in August, but I haven’t changed anything more.  The music is truly a mix of many aspects of our life.  Today, God used that iPod to show me He is there with me.  Song after song about faith – I haven’t heard the songs EVER played in this order.  I know God was working a miracle in my heart this afternoon.  The second song to play was, “God is in Control.”

This is no time for fear
This is a time for faith and determination
Don't lose the vision here
Carried away by emotion
Hold on to all that you hide in your heart
There is one thing that has always been true
It holds the world together
God is in control
We believe that His children will not be forsaken
God is in control
We will choose to remember and never be shaken
There is no power above or beside Him, we know
God is in control, oh God is in control
History marches on
There is a bottom line drawn across the ages
Culture can make its plan
Oh, but the line never changes
No matter how the deception may fly
There is one thing that has always been true
It will be true forever
He has never let you down
Why start to worry now?
He is still the Lord of all we see
And He is still the loving Father
Watching over you and me
watching over you...watching over me..
watching over every things..
watching over you..watching over me..
every little sparrow..every little things...

I praise You, Lord.  Thank You!!!
