"When I am down, and, oh, my soul, so weary; When troubles come, and my heart burdened be. Then, I am still and wait here in the silence; Until you come and sit awhile with me. You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains; You raise me up to walk on stormy seas; I am strong when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up to more than I can be. There is no life, no life without it's hunger; Each restless heart beats so imperfectly; But then you come, and I am filled with wonder; Sometimes I think I glimpse eternity. You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains; You raise me up to walk on stormy seas; I am strong when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up to more than I can be."
More than words to a beautiful inspiring song written by Brendan Graham; these words of praise to our Heavenly Father represent someone who has walked through storms of life and become an overcomer. Trusting God in every aspect of life strengthens us to become more than conquerors as He instills within us the ability to walk through storms of life knowing He is by our side; and knowing in Whom we trust and Whose we are. We are made overcomers as we survive the many trials we encounter and the many times we mess up throughout our lives and no one is exempt; everyone has trials, everyone has mess-ups and everyone makes mistakes. But without a test, there is no testimony; and without a mess there is no message. The amazing outcome of it all is that we now have a testimony we can share with others that will build their faith and give them hope that because we came through this; they too can become an overcomer in God. So learning to trust God's ability to lead and guide us through every storm; we become secure in knowing that with each trial, with each storm, with each loss we encounter in life; it only helps to make us stronger.
As God raises us up, time and time again; we eventually become strong enough to put those things behind us; that would have otherwise taken us under. As He raises us up, we can walk on those stormy seas of our life; knowing He walks beside us. As we trust in His ability within us, we become more than we could ever dare to be. We become Strong! We become Victorious! We become Overcomers! We become Sons and Daughters of the Most High God! In Christ Jesus, We Become!!! No matter what your storm of life may be; know that God is with you, and will walk beside you, if only you ask. He longs to raise you up to be more than you could ever dare to be! Trust God- He loves you and so do I~~~
