ALL IN ALL
You are my strength when I am weak,
You are the treasure that I seek,
You are my all in all.
Seeking You as a precious jewel,
Lord, to give up I'd be a fool,
You are my all in all.
Taking my sin, my cross, my shame,
Rising again I bless Your name,
You are my all in all.
When I fall down You pick me up,
When I am dry You fill my cup,
You are my all in all.
Jesus, Lamb of God,
Worthy is Your Name.
A few hours ago, I began feeling troubled. I don't know why. Or what I was troubled about but I was just really troubled. I felt hurt and pain... Maybe I was having mood swings. Or maybe I was just getting too attached to some of the fictional characters in stories and on TV.
And as I was in the middle of all sorts of emotions, God put this song in my heart. And I was really comforted. This song is like a reminder that in the middle of all the challenges, obstacles, pain, brokenness, etc... He is my all in all. He is the treasure that I should always seek. The things of this world are not permanent.
Charles Chaplin once said, "Nothing is permanent in this wicked world - not even our troubles."
So, if you are reading this, remember whatever you are going through, it will end. Good things will happen. It's okay to be overwhelmed by things around you. God knows that we are not always strong. Sometimes, all we can do is rest in His arms as He takes us through the journey of life. With Him, we are safe... Remember to be still and know He is God.
On another note, saw something that I'd like to share with you.
"Don't get disappointed when God doesn't give you what you want. For He knows the best time for you to have it."
And on that note, I should go. See you soon!
