Music has a wonderful way of assisting truth's penetratration into your heart. This is the song that has been reoccuring for me in the past several days.
O God of Love (How Good It Is)
by Stuart Townend
O God of love, I come to you again, knowing I'll find mercy
I can't explain all the things I see, but I'll trust in You
In every moment You are there, watching over You hear my prayer
You go before me, You're behind me, nothing's hidden from You
How good it is, to be loved by You. How good it is.
How good it is, to be loved by You. How good it is.
O God of strength, Your hand is on my life, bringing peace to me
You know my frame. You know how I am made. You planned all my days
Hand of mercy hand of love, giving power to overcome
If all beneath me falls away, I know that You are God
Who can stand against us?
In my weakness You are strong
Your word is everlasting
I will praise You faithful One
How good it is, to be loved by You. How good it is
How good it is, to be loved by You. How good it is
This is not only true with music, but also with the preaching of God's word. Pete's sermon yesterday was especially beneficial to my soul (Faith & Sight). God persistently pursues me, undeserving as I am. May my faith continue to grow and may I see and worship God for who he is. He is more powerful than all else, (sin, circumstance, suffering, or anything) and more good and loving than I can imagine. The truth of who He is does not change, and most certainly is not dependant on my feelings.
How wonderful to hide in the shadow of the Almighty's wing. And all the glory goes to Christ, for without the cross I could not hide there.
