As many as it takes...from now until forever...70 times 7...or more. <br /><br />Standing on a road I didn't plan <br />Wondering how I got to where I am <br />I'm trying to hear that still small voice <br />I'm trying to hear above the noise <br /><br />There is SO much noise in this world telling us we aren't enough. But, God says we are, we are enough, and that is enough. <br /><br /><br />Oh I walk, oh I walk through the shadows <br />And I, I am so afraid <br />Please stay, please stay right beside me <br />With every single step I take <br /><br />She begs God to stay right beside her but in reality He never ever...ever...left. God stands next to us, even when we don't have the faith to listen to him, because He believes in us...because He comes to us, He calls to us...we don't have to go or do...we just need to be still and listen. <br /><br />How many times have you heard me cry out? <br />And how many times have you given me strength? <br /><br /><br />Someone mentioned this song in our small group a couple of weeks ago and we all broke out and could sing every word. Why is that? Because it is catchy? No, I think it is because there is somewhere in the heart of a woman where we all can relate to fear and anxiety...it is in that place we need to lean into God with tenacity and not let go regardless of our feelings. You are not alone. Praying, sweet sister.

It's so hard for me to look back on the times when I was so on fire and could hear his voice so clearly and now it seems so hard! Thank you for the reminder that His power is made perfect in my weekness! I need to remember that! :) <br />Have a blessed day, friend!
