Still My God

While watching "Facing the Giants" not too long ago, I was challenged by a line in the movie. The main couple had been unable to have children. In one scene, the husband turns to his wife and asks something to the effect of, "If God doesn't give us children, will you still choose to love Him?"

I realized that blank could be filled in with anything. I was challenged with the question, "If God doesn't..... will I still choose to love Him?"

This last week I heard a new song. It couldn't have come at a more appropriate time.

We learned at our little guy's 2 year old check up that there are some things to face in the days, weeks and months ahead. They suspect it will be resolved with time. But how much and for how long is undetermined. Once again, for another child, I found a stack of paperwork being handed to me.

The news and realization of this came crashing down heavy in my heart and emotions. It left me feeling so very overwhelmed. I have just completed a month of paperwork for our daughter and am still immersed in her needs.

I began to tell God all the reasons why this was too much for me. I began to explain that I couldn't handle one more thing. My heart was in a panic. The tears began to spill...

As I prayed and let the desires of my own heart be known, I found myself coming back to this question, "If God doesn't..... will I still choose to love Him?"

Truth began to find it's way once again nestling deep into my heart.

No matter what... even if... I will still choose to love Him.

He is...

Still My God.

Still My God
By Avalon

Up and down like the tide is moving
In and out, we’re in motion
And the ocean pulls us under
and even there, You’re found
You never change so I will sing

CHORUS:
If I’m standing on a mountain
or drowning in the sea
If I am filled with hope or crying out for mercy
If I’m singing Hallelujah or scared to make a sound
If I am learning how to walk or when I’m falling down
I’m saying You are still my God
Still my God

In a world where so much seems uncertain
You remain both for the strong and broken
No matter where we are
You are never far
And nothing changes who You are

Chorus:

Jesus You are still my God

You were, You are, You will be forever
You were, You are Yeah Yeah
You were, You are God

If I’m standing on a mountain
or drowning in the sea
If I am filled with hope or crying out for mercy

If I’m learning how to walk or when I’m falling down
If I’m standing on a mountain or drowning in the sea
If I am filled with hope or crying out for mercy
If I’m singing Hallelujah
When I am learning how to walk or when I’m falling down

I’m saying You are still my God
Jesus You are, You are still my God
Jesus You are still my God
Still my God
Still my God
