I Will Yet Trust You
The night is falling;
the tempest blows
My mind is swirling,
no one knows.
I can’t deny it,
I just don’t understand-
Why does it have to be this way?
I’m in such a strange land
I’m so lost and afraid
My hope is failing fast
But my trust in you Lord
Is one that will last!
I will yet trust You
I will yet trust you
I’m relying on your love
I’m taking a firm stand in your integrity
There’s no one like you Lord
I believe in your ability!
I will yet trust You.
Please don’t be silent.
Send me your wisdom
I desire to speak with you
About this earthly kingdom
I cry “it’s just not fair’
The bad guys are winning
We’re in such despair
My head won’t quit spinning.
Why all the pain?
Why the suffering and doubt?
There’s no one to turn to
I just want out. I just want out!
I will yet trust You
I will yet trust you
I’m relying on your love
I’m taking a firm stand in your integrity
There’s no one like you Lord
I believe in your ability
I will yet trust You.
Job 13:15
Though he slay me, yet will I hope in him
Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusts in him, and I am helped.
My heart leaps for joy
and I will give thanks to him in song.
Psalm 23
A psalm of David.
1 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
4 Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, [
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

Understanding
I'm having a very hard time understanding people and even God. Why do people make the choices they do? Why does God make the choices He does? The Bible has over 100 verses on understanding. Job talked about it alot. Maybe both people and God are beyond our understanding. I think for people, it is too easy to get wrapped up in sin. The "feel good" of the moment. One instant, one choice wrongly made, can change the course of forever. I'm not condemning. I'm talking about myself here. I'm certainly guilty. And God.......we can't even begin to fathom or understand His ways. His ways aren't our ways. Isa. 55:8-9 (That's a good thing, I know.) Maybe it boils down to trust. I don't think I will ever understand the meanness of this world. How someone can hurt a child. Kill the unborn. Persecute the innocent. Steal. Kill. Destroy. My understanding blames a lot of on the enemy, yet we all have free will to say no. Yet, even though I don't understand God all the time, I still trust Him. He has never ever let me down. That's why we can't just walk by faith. We must run with trust! Even when we don't understand.
Run With Trust by Natalie Lowe
Scripture ref. Psalm 143:8
I heard it said to walk by faith
Commit all your ways unto Him
But is that enough to face this world?
When everything seems dim…..
Faith is something hoped for
Taking a step in the right direction
But what if we were to run with trust?
From the paths of destruction.
Let the morning bring me word
of your unfailing love,
for I have put my trust in you.
Show me the way I should go,
for to you I lift up my soul.
And I will run…I will run…..with trust.
Run with trust and keep the pace
Don’t give up, just finish the race
Run with trust from all the lies
Run with trust to get the prize.
Jesus…Jesus…help me run with trust.
Day after day, night after night
I wander aimlessly astray
I feel so lost again Lord….do I have this one right?
I want to go your way.
Your love Lord, always protects, and will never fail
It always hopes and perseveres
So if I will just run with trust
You will wipe away these tears
Let the morning bring me word
of your unfailing love,
for I have put my trust in you.
Show me the way I should go,
for to you I lift up my soul.
And I will run…I will run…..with trust.
Run with trust and keep the pace
Don’t give up just finish the race
Run with trust from all the lies
Run with trust to get the prize.
Jesus…Jesus…help me run with trust.
