A friend sent me the following song lyrics:
Don't Pray and Worry
(Recorded by J. Moss)(Written by James Moss)
He knows all that's before you
He will never neglect His child
Nor will ignore tears in your eyes
Lay your cares to rest
Chorus:
The righteous won't be forsaken
Just hold to your faith
And His word will be manifested
Be steadfast and don't fear
Don't pray and worry
Why is it that we will spend time
going to church but don't understand why
Why we must pray
And then believe things we pray for will soon be received
The prayers of the righteous availeth much
Be not weary in well doing
God of Heaven can do anything
Lay your cares to rest
For the righteous
Chorus:
He who holds the future
Also rules this land
And responsible for each breath we take
Just pray and then leave it there
Pray and then leave it there
Maybe you've lost all hope
And can't see past tomorrow
Speak His word into your life
And stand on His promise to you
This is a beautiful song, isn't it? I love the idea of "praying and leaving it there!" Our family is going through a time of waiting - waiting on the adoption process, waiting on our daughter's wedding, waiting on a possible job opportunity. It is the most difficult thing for me personally. I can pray for others - no problem. But trying to pray for God's will for our family and our needs is so difficult for me! I always try to be in control even when I know that I have NO control at all. It is all up to God - He knows what is best for our family and He has a divine plan for us.
Please continue to pray for our family - we appreciate all of your support so much! May God bless you as well especially if you are experiencing the same kind of waiting in your prayers.
