Your Hands by JJ Heller.

I have unanswered prayers
I have trouble I wish wasn’t there
And I have asked a thousand ways
That You would take my pain away
That You would take my pain away

I am trying to understand
How to walk this weary land
Make straight the paths that crookedly lie
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

When You walked upon the Earth
You healed the broken, lost, and hurt
I know You hate to see me cry
One day You will set all things right
Yea, one day You will set all things right

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

Your hands
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave You when…

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave…
I never leave Your hands

As I’ve mentioned before there have been a lot changes in our lives in the last 4 months. We took a leap of faith with confidence knowing that He had called us to go. But I’d be lying if I said it has been easy. Sure there has been much to enjoy in our time of transition and there is much to be thankful for but there are many times when I long for “my old life”. It wasn’t perfect and it wasn’t always easy but it was comfortable and it was known and I really, really liked it! Now, I feel as if my world has been shaken up quite a bit. I’m ready for the shaking to subside… but we are still rocking and rolling over here. In the midst of the roller coaster ride we find ourselves in I am so grateful for the calming truth JJ Heller sings about in the song Your Hands.  Even when my world is spinning,  heaven stands. I am in His hands, the hands of the Creator and I will never leave. This is what I hold on to when I can’t figure out anything else. And slowly…very slowly…I’ve come to realize this is exactly where He wants me.
