Recently I have been struggling with my spirituality, I have had a lot of things on my mind lately and I was becoming overwhelmed with all the thought and how am I going to take care of everything. Suddenly it hit me while singing at church, I was singing a song I wasn't really listening to the words but I know the song you know? I've known it since I was a child, so the words just kind of flow, anyway I happen to hear a part of the song that I think God wanted me to hear, it was, "trust and obey, for there's no there way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey " at that point it hit me I don't need to be worried about how I can fix things in my life, but I do need to obey God's commandments and trust that he will take care of everything else. Just realizing that took such a load of my shoulders. God wants us to trust in him and need him because He has the answers to all of life's questions. I love this song after really understanding what it means, or what it can mean to a person struggling to let go and let God. Another verse says, "Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share, but our toil he doth richly repay; not a grief or a loss, not a frown or a cross, but is blest if we trust and obey." Just trust in the Lord and he will see us through. We are all going to go through trials, but if we obey the Lord and trust in His promises to us we will be rewarded for our suffering. This sing just made me feel better about life, my life. I hope it can help someone else too.
