I can rest in your faithfulness

It is Sunday evening. Well, technically, it is already Monday morning at 1:30AM, and a long week looms ahead. How will my projects pan out. Will I be able to deliver at work. Will I handle every problem perfectly. Will I be able to respond to every conflict with Christ-likeness. Come Friday, will I have moved one step closer to finding peace?

It is 2AM, and my brain is obviously still in overdrive.

That said, Brian Doerksen’s song reminded me that no matter what lies ahead, God is still in control. And I can count on His faithfulness in watching over me.

“Your Faithfulness”

I don’t know what this day will bring
Will it be disappointing, filled with longed for things?
I don’t know what tomorrow holds
Still I know I can trust Your faithfulness

I don’t know if these clouds mean rain
If they do, will they pour down blessing or pain?
I don’t know what the future holds
Still I know I can trust Your faithfulness

Certain as the rivers reach the sea
Certain as the sunrise in the east
I can rest in your faithfulness
Surer than a mother’s tender love
Surer than the stars still shine above
I can rest in your faithfulness

I don’t know how or when I’ll die
Will it be a thief, or will I have a chance to say goodbye?
No, I don’t know how much time is left
But in the end, I will know your faithfulness

When darkness overwhelms my soul
When thoughts and storms of doubt
Still I trust You are always faithful, always faithful

Certain as the rivers reach the sea
Certain as the sunrise in the east
I can rest in your faithfulness
Surer than a mother’s tender love
Surer than the stars still shine above
I can rest in your faithfulness

I don’t know what this day will bring
Will it be disappointing, filled with longed for things?
I don’t know what tomorrow holds
Still I know I can trust Your faithfulness
