Mighty to Save

Savior, He can move the mountains. My God is mighty to save. He is mighty to save.

I have to confess, there have been times lately where I have been envious of God's work in other people's lives. I can see His answers to their prayers, and to my prayers for them, but not to their prayers for me or my prayers for me (which haven't been that frequent). It seems things are going well for them; they seem to have peace and joy; they are being productive at work; their relationships are trucking along quite well. I, however, still feel in a rut; peace seems to be the farthest thing from my plate; I smile and grimmace through work many days.

You are my God as much as theirs, aren't You? Why not me? When will it be my turn? Do You even hear me?

Sometimes I wonder if He gets tired of hearing me whine. Other times I wonder if He's waiting for me to believe just a little bit more.

In the midst of all my crap, God is moving. It's taken a few knock-down drag-outs and some tears for me to see it, but His hand is moving in my circumstances also. And despite my jealousy, above my complaining, and beyond my rebellion, He has reached down and done it again. Maybe not as fast, and maybe not the way that I'd hoped for, but He continues to rescue me.

There is hope, there is hope for my lonely soul. There is hope, there is hope to be made whole. There is life, there is life to be set free. There is life, there is life surrounding me. There is hope, there is hope for my broken heart. There is hope, there is hope for a brand new start. There is life, there is life. Give me eyes to see. There is life, there is life. You have captured me.

God has shown me in the past few weeks just how well He knows my heart and just how closely He is paying attention. Jesus, give me eyes to see.

Keep on dreamin' of the day when it all will change. Believe in the end love wins. If you're waiting for the time when your sun will shine, look above 'cause love wins. - RSB
