Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set the example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith, and in purity. I Timothy 4:12

Future, Etc.

Like saying goodbye to a lifetime friend
Like stepping out into an unknown world
Like standing on top of a mountain
Like wandering through a dark valley
Like leaving everything familiar
Like being shoved out of a nest
Like finishing a race
Like starting a marathon
Like navigating without a map
Like finishing my life as a homeschooler

And the pain falls like a curtain
On the things I once called certain
And I have to say the words I fear the most
I just don’t know

And the questions without answers
Come and paralyze the dancer
So I stand here on the stage, afraid to move; afraid to fall,

But fall I must, on this truth that my life has been formed from the dust


God is God and I am not
I can only see a part of the picture He’s painting
God is God and I am man
So I’ll never understand it all
For only God is God


And the sky begins to thunder
And I’m filled with awe and wonder
‘Til the only burning question that remains
Is who am I


Can I form a single mountain
Take the stars in hand and count them
Can I even take a breath without God giving it to me
He is first and last, before all that has been
Beyond all that will pass 


God is God and I am not
I can only see a part of the picture He’s painting
God is God and I am man
So I’ll never understand it all
For only God is God


Oh, how great are the riches of His wisdom and knowledge
How unsearchable for to Him and through
Him and from Him are all things


So let us worship before the throne
Of the One who is worthy of worship alone

 

This song has so much more meaning to me now that I'm searching for a plan for my future. Few things bring comfort, especially now during all this turmoil, but there's comfort in knowing that my King is in control.

 

God is God and I am not
I can only see a part of the picture He’s painting
God is God and I am man
So I’ll never understand it all
For only God is God

I love that song. And don't feel too discouraged, just about every high school senior is going through the same thing.

Amen. The ONLY certain thing in life is Christ, but on Him we can stand in complete confidence.

Featured Song

I'll be remembering / The dark night; the hard fight; the long climb up a hill knowing the cost / The brave death, the last breath, the silence whispering all hope is lost / The thunder, the wonder... the power that brings the dead back to life!
Entry 18 of 357
