let the waters rise

Don't know where to begin. Its like my world's caving in and I try but I can't control my fear. Where do I go from here? Sometimes its so hard to pray when You feel so far away, but I am willing to go where you want me to. God, I trust You. There's a raging sea right in front of me, wants to pull me in, bring me to my knees. So let the waters rise if You want them to. I will follow You. I will swim in the deep 'cause You'll be next to me. You're in the eye of the storm and the calm of the sea. You're never out of reach. God, You know where I've been. You were there with me then. You were faithful before. You'll be faithful again. I'm holding Your hand. There's a raging sea right in front of me, wants to pull me in, bring me to my knees. So let the waters rise if You want them to. I will follow You. God Your love is enough. You will pull me through. I'm holding onto You. God Your love is enough. I will follow You.

The above lyrics are from the song "Let the Waters Rise" by Mikeschair. I was VERY downcast as I left the hospital today. I was reminded that I have been saved by, am sustained by, and serve a very BIG GOD who loves Malachi more than I could even fathom.

Isaiah 26:3-4 states:
You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD, is the Rock eternal.

Pray that I keep my mind fixed on the Eternal Rock, creator of all, sustainer of all.
