Sometimes we are at the middle
Sometimes we’re somewhere between the beginning and the end
Hoping it pans out well
Sometimes the plan is a mess
Sometimes the future looks ‘iffy’
Sometimes it needs help
Sometimes it begs mercy
~
But always, He knows what happens before it does
But always, He knows what lies in store
But always, He’s given us everything we need
But always, He is with us, even when we are not sure
~
Sometimes, it’s not the ‘beautiful’ future we had in mind
And it’s not the plans we laid out
Sometimes it happens outside of our dreams
But our surrender allows Him to do what He wants
~
Always He is with me
Always He is there
Guiding patiently
Loving tenderly
Drying my tears
Healing my heart
Teaching me to wait and trust
Teaching me to hope and hold on
~
Oh, to live like that!
