Find You on my Knees

I heard this song today by Kari Jobe called "Find You on my Knees" and I was once again reminded of how faithful God is to speak to me through music and lyrics of songs. The lyrics are posted below but a part of the song that really stuck out was the bridge where the words say "When my hope is gone, when the fear is strong. When the pain is real, when it's hard to heal. When my faith is shaken and my heart is broken and my joy is stolen, God I know that You lift me up, You never leave me searching..." 

This week has been a crazy one (already... its only Tuesday!) and though there is A LOT to look forward to (Pentatonix Concert tonight, Iron Man 3 on Thursday!) the troubles of life, car problems, work problems, financial problems, all seem to pile up...  And instead of looking at the good I tend to focus on the bad... 

Today, in the midst of all my "problems", God reminded me that He is faithful, that when fear is strong, when pain and hurt are real, He is there lifting me up. He will never leave me. "So what if sorrow shakes my faith, What if heartache still remains, I'll trust you, my God I'll trust you. 'Cause You are faithful" That is my prayer today... not only for myself but for all of you (whoever happens to read this blog). That you would trust in Him, trust Him to bring you through whatever may be weighing you down or filling your mind today. He is Faithful!

Remind yourself today of all the ways He has been faithful, of all the times He came through. Reflect on those things and rest in Him!

Find You on my Knees

by Kari Jobe

Troubles chasing me again,

Breaking down my best defense,

I'm looking, God, I'm looking for you

Weary just won't let me rest and fear is filling up my head.

I'm longing, God I'm longing for you

But I will find you in the place I'm in, find you when I'm at my end,

Find you when there's nothing left of me to offer you except for brokenness.

You lift me up, you'll never leave me thirsty,

When I am weak, when I am lost and searching

I'll find you on my knees.

So what if sorrow shakes my faith,

What if heartache still remains,

I'll trust you, my God I'll trust you.

'Cause You are faithful and

I will find you in the place I'm in, find you when I'm at my end,

Find you when there's nothing left of me to offer you except for brokenness.

You lift me up, you'll never leave me thirsty,

When I am weak, when I am lost and searching

I'll find you on my knees, my knees.

When my hope is gone, when the fear is strong

When the pain is real, when it's hard to heal

When my faith is shaken and my heart is broken and my joy is stolen, God I know that

You lift me up, you'll never leave me searching,

Find you in the place I'm in, find you when I'm at my end,

Find you when there's nothing left of me to offer you except for brokenness.

You lift me up, you'll never leave me thirsty,

When I am weak, when I am lost and searching

I'll find you on my knees."
