In God's Hands

I have never more reliant on God in my life and while I am not pleased with the circumstances, I am enjoying my time with God this week. He is the only reason I have been able to stay strong through it all. He is the only reason I have been able to hold on to the hope I have that He will glorified in this situation, no matter what.

There is one song I have been listening to a lot over the past few days and it has tremendously lifted my spirits every day.


Trading My Sorrows lyrics

[1] I'm trading my sorrow
I'm trading my shame
I'm laying it down for the joy of the Lord

I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my pain
I'm laying it down for the joy of the Lord

[Chorus]
And we say yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord
Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord
Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord Amen

I'm pressed but not crushed persecuted not abandoned
Struck down but not destroyed
I'm blessed beyond the curse for his promise will endure
And his joy's gonna be my strength

Though the sorrow may last for the night
His joy comes with the morning.
