God is Faithful Pt 2

Hey Guys,

There is a song that has been playing over and over again in my heart and on the radio called Faithful and it is written by Steven Curtis Chapman....

It shows to me just how faithful God truly is and it is something that we need to hold on to. God gives us things that are spectacular but he also takes things from us when the time comes. Granted the time does not always come when we want it to but there is a reason for the timing.

To speak from personal experience, just over a year in a half ago my mother was taken from me and my world turned completely upside down and my path even though it seems easy was not an easy one to embark upon. Inside my heart cried out "I am Broken, I am Bleeding, I'm Scared and I'm Confused" but what I had to come to terms with was the Fact that God was Faithful to me. I had to begin to cry out "You are Faithful Lord, You are Faithful, I am weary, and can't believe this, PLEASE DEAR LORD HELP MY UNBELIEF, cuz i know that you are faithful"

I had to learn to proclaim to the world just how faithful God was in light of the traumatizing experience of Loving someone so close to me. My Mother was my Inspiration in life she was the one that helped me through everything in my life, personally I needed to Learn to depend on God for those things instead of my Mother, I had to step on a different path so to speak, embrace the Fathers Love and not dwell on the Love that was about to be taken from me. I learned such a valuable lesson from this experience...

I posted a blog from another one of my sites that told me to "keep singing and praising his name" no matter what was taking place I had to believe that God was Faithful and that this time of great sorrow and un-imaginable pain, that I had to work through. I had to learn that everything in side of me had to point directly to God, and to be honest I didn't want to. My life changed so much and it will never be the same again after that experience, to this day I still struggle with the reasons behind it but when those times come "I scream it into the Dark, YOU ARE FAITHFUL, and with everything is side of me I choose to believe that there was a purpose in all that took place....

Through loosing my mother I learned one of the most valuable lessons I will ever learn, "In Your hands you hold the sun, the moon, the stars up in the sky, for the sake of Love, You hung Your own Son on the cross...to die..."

God holds everything in balance in our lives and has a reason for everything under the sun as it says in Ecclesiastes, in many ways I needed to be released from the Love I had for my Mother so I could learn the Love of God and how to truly love those around me. For the longest time I couldn't figure this out because of my unbelief but through my more resent experiences I'm learning so much more about how "God is Faithful, and that all I have to do is wait for the rescue, that I know is sure to come and to believe that HE is indeed SO FAITHFUL, I CAN'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS, BUT HE IS FAITHFUL".....

With every thing is side of me I CHOOSE TO BELIEVE THAT GOD IS FAITHFUL....

Following the salutation are the lyrics one of the songs that have become so close to my heart....

Blessings & Shalom,

M.E.

PS (I still have more to say about this, so keep coming back...)

I am broken, I am bleeding,
I'm scared and I'm confused,
but You are faithful.
Yes You are faithful.
I am weary, unbelieving.
God please help my unbelief!
Cuz You are faithful.
Yes You are faithful.

I will proclaim it to the world.
I will declare it to my heart
And sing it when the sun is shining.
I will scream it in the dark.

You are faithful!
You are faithful!
When you give and when You take away,
even then still Your name
is faithful!
You are faithful!
And with everything inside of me,
I am choosing to believe
You are faithful.

I am waiting for the rescue
that I know is sure to come,
cuz You are faithful.
Yes You are faithful.
I've dropped anchor in Your promises,
and I am holding on,
cuz You are faithful.
God You are faithful.


I will proclaim it to the world.
I will declare it to my heart
And sing it when the sun is shining.
I will scream it in the dark.

You are faithful!
You are faithful!
When you give and when You take away,
even then still Your name
is faithful!
You are faithful!
And with everything inside of me,
I am choosing to believe You're faithful.

So faithful...

Though I cannot have the answer
that I'm wanting to demand,
I'll remember You are God
and everything is in Your hand.
In Your hands you hold the sun, the moon,
the stars up in the sky,
for the sake of Love, You hung Your own Son
on the cross...to die...

You are faithful...
Yes, You are faithful...
When you give and when You take away,
even then, great is Your faithfulness!
Great is Your faithfulness!

And with everything inside of me,
I am choosing to believe You're faithful!
Oh, oh, oh...
Oh, oh, oh...
When you give and when You take away,
even then still Your name
is faithful!
You are faithful!
And with everything inside of me,
I am choosing to believe...

...You're faithful...
