It seems that when I dip into the valleys of my life, God reveals Himself in unique ways.  I've realized within the past few years, He has really used the lyrics of songs to catch my attention.  For example,

Hold Fast

MercyMe

To everyone who's hurting
To those who've had enough
To all the undeserving
That should cover all of us
Please do not let go
I promise there is hope

Hold fast
Help is on the way
Hold fast
He's come to save the day
What I've learned in my life
One thing greater than my strife
Is His grasp
So hold fast

Will this season ever pass?
Can we stop this ride?
Will we see the sun at last?
Or could this be our lot in life?
Please do not let go
I promise you there's hope

You may think you're all alone
And there's no way that anyone could know
What you're going through
But if you only hear one thing
Just understand that we are all the same
Searching for the truth
The truth of what we're soon to face
Unless someone comes to take our place
Is there anyone?
All we want is to be free
Free from our captivity, Lord
Here He comes

 

I am hurting, I've had enough, and I'm definitely undeserving...but there is hope.  One things that is greater than my strife is His grasp...so I'll hold fast.

These 2 stood out to me. I'm praying.

The first part gives hope. That He is greater than anything, good or bad.

The second part gives understanding and comfort. Although I may feel alone, I'm not. Everyone else is looking for the same answers to the same questions. I know that not only does God not leave me, He has others who haven't as well.
