Conversations with God

I will go where You go
I will say what You say
I will be what You want me to be
Over mountains and plains
Through the valleys and seas
I will be what You want me to be
I will follow,
I will follow You

(I Will Follow) My favorite worship song

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, Lord! I say "yes" to You! I will follow! I will go! I will stay! I will do whatever You want me to do.

Do you know what that means? Do you really know what that will entail?

I know it won't be easy. In fact, it will be HARD! It's not all sunshine and roses. Trials will come. I will be tested more beyond what I thought I could bear. The pain will come, like a knife in the darkness, it will rip at my soul, leaving bitter scars. There will be dark nights when questions will come and haunt me, and doubts will plague my mind, but they will not last for I WILL hope in Your unfailing love. I will trust in Your eternal strength. My eyes will fill with sorrow, anguish will rip at my heart, and bitterness will beat at my soul. Fears will plague my mind, nevertheless, You will be there. In the midst of the pain and the suffering You will bring joy. when the night seems to close around me and the darkness envelops me, You will bring light. You will bring peace in the midst of war, joy in the midst of sorrow, life in the midst of death, hope in the midst of despair, faith where all there was was emptiness, and love, true, pure, exuberant love, where all that was was hate. Darkness will turn to light, the night will disappear and a new day will burst forth, day when You will reign, when You will be king. It will be a day when we will be together FOREVER! And though they say fairy tales aren't real, I will be able to say, "we live happily ever after." Psalm 48:14 "For this God is our God for ever and ever, He will be our guide, even to the end."
