Casting Crowns - Just Be Held (Official Lyric Video) (+playlist)

This week is full of uncertainties, worries, anxieties... whatever you want to call them:

Will my job close for summer at the end of this week? Or will we have 2 weeks after this one?  That seems trivial to most people, but for a woman who has recently become a single mother... its stressful knowing that I may be without one last paycheck. 

What will we do financially for money this summer?  My job moves to part time during summer months.  We can cut corners and really pinch pennies this summer but will we have enough to live off of?  There is an answered prayer in the works but are the details what I need them to be?  What do I need them to be? 

Where will we move in the next couple of months?  Peanut and I need to move out of our home because there are too many memories in it.  AND because I am paying too much rent for way too much house for the two of us to live in.  Should I buy or rent a home?  Am I brave enough to try to buy a home? 

 

I think the answer lies within another question.

How much do I trust God? 

Do I trust Him to make all the decisions and to provide for me? 

 Has He ever let me down before? 

 

The answer to this question is

ABSOLUTELY YES.

 

 

So tonight as I prepare for a week of unknowns; where everyone asks me "What are you going to do?" and where some people tell me what they think I should do... as I prepare for that kind of week, I will sleep peacefully. I will rest that God is holding me, making beauty from ashes.  I will trust that His plan will be just what I need.  He is never late but He is never early.  He knows just what I need and I can trust Him.
