I can trust you - 2 weeks to fusion!

Yesterday morning my wife decided to take on the mantle of ‘DJ Ruthie on the discs’ as we drove into work together ( this simply means she got to choose what songs we listened to as we waited [reasonably] patiently in the traffic). She put on a Rebecca St James CD which I had bought her for Christmas: If I Had Once Chance To Tell You Something. DJ Ruthie skipped straight to track 11 emphatically declaring, “I love this one!”

I am inclined to agree with her :o) It’s an awesome song and as I sat there, watching the brake lights on the car in front flicking slowly on and off, I let the words sink in.

I Can Trust You

Yes, I know that You have paved a path for me
Yes, I know that You see what I do and don’t need
But when it comes to the deepest things
I have a hard time relinquishing control
Letting go

God, it hurts to give You what I must lay down
But when I let go, freedom’s found
God, it hurts to give You what I’ve held so dear
Because of Your love it’s clear
I can trust You with this
I can trust You with me
I can trust You

Lord, I know that You are worthy of my trust
For You have shown me time and time again
You’re faithful and yet
I’m so scared of letting go of this
Afraid of what You might do with it
How could I forget who You are like this

Me forsaking
Heart is breaking
I let go of what I’ve held so tight
Freedom’s mine now
For the taking
I move in faith, not by sight
Let Your will be done

This morning I have let this song become my prayer. Letting go I get a better grip.
Let Your will be done in my life, Lord. Amen
