What Faith Is

Tired?

Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” Eugene H. Peterson, The Message: The Bible in Contemporary Language (Colorado Springs, CO: NavPress, 2005), Mt 11:28–30.

When you are waiting on Gods timing….

“I Can Wait”

Oh, the night is dark and the road is hard
Lord, my heavy heart is about to break!
I’m face to face with a need for faith
Give me eyes to see past today.
[Chorus:]
Cause there is no easy out
Gravity hurts when I get knocked out
Don’t need to know why,
You give me the faith
To know you’re on time,
Not a second late!
So I can wait, I can wait,
I can wait,
You’re right on time, not a second late!
I can wait!
Lead me by your truth that will never move
Cause I need a light that will never fade (that will never fade!)
Lord your plans are for me
Even when I can’t see the whole story
Give me eyes to see past today!
[Chorus:]
Cause it’s no easy out
Gravity hurts when I get knocked out
Don’t need to know why,
You give me the faith
To know you’re on time,
Not a second late!
So I can wait, I can wait,
I can wait,
You’re right on time, not a second late!
So I can wait!
Through the fire, through the rain
Through the joy, through the pain
In it all, I can wait
Cause thank God your love remains.
[Chorus:]
You see, is no easy way out
Gravity hurts when I get knocked out
Don’t need to know why,
You give me the faith
To know you’re on time,
Not a second late!
So I can wait, I can wait!
I can wait,
You’re right on time, not a second late!
I can wait!
