I have so many mixed emotions about Uganda, luckily the majority of them are positive! ;) I am overjoyed with the kindness of people recently, so many of them willing to help me get to where I'm going. Such beautiful people! I am hopefully going to be making some flower hair clippies soon, and I will put them up for people to purchase. :)
I'm going to try and make more posts, with devotionals, songs, Bible verses, ect. that have stuck out to me. Recently the song 'We Wont Be Shaken' by Building 429 has been on replay. The lyrics, hit me and strike up emotion that I love. It gives me the chills and fills me with God's love, and the power to change anything. I truly love it.
This world has nothing for me
This life is not my own
I know You go before me and I am not alone
This mountain rises higher
The way seems so unclear
But I know that You go with me so I will never fear
I will trust in You
Whatever will come our way
Through fire or pouring rain
We won't be shaken
No we won't be shaken
Whatever tomorrow brings
Together we'll rise and sing
That we won't be shaken
No we won't be shaken
Oooh oooh oh
Oooh oooh oh
Oooh oooh oh
No we won't be shaken
You know my every longing
You've heard my every prayer
You've held me in my weakness
Cause You are always there
So I'll stand in full surrender
It's Your way and not my own
My mind is set on nothing less
Than You and You alone
I will not be moved oh
Whatever will come our way
Through fire or pouring rain
We won't be shaken
No we won't be shaken
Whatever tomorrow brings
Together we'll rise and sing
That we won't be shaken
No we won't be shaken
We will trust in You
We will not be moved
We will trust in You
And we won't be shaken
[x3]
No we won't be shaken
Whatever will come our way
Through fire or pouring rain
We won't be shaken
No we won't be shaken
Whatever tomorrow brings
Together we'll rise and sing
That we won't be shaken
No we won't be shaken
Oooh oooh oh
Oooh oooh oh
Oooh oooh oh
No we won't be shaken
Oooh oooh oh
Oooh oooh oh
Oooh oooh oh
No we won't be shaken
I came about this song right as my opportunity to go to Uganda came. I was terrified, and not sure if God was calling me to go to Uganda. I was afraid of all the things that could happen, but this song talks about how "I know You go before me and I am not alone, This mountain rises higher, The way seems so unclear, But I know that You go with me so I will never fear, I will trust in You." Sometimes God asks us to do things, or go places that are scary to us. Places that we long to go until the time comes and then fear sets in. But the neat thing? God has already paved our way, He already knows what will happen. He knows, and He asks us to trust Him when the fear sets in. That is exactly what I am doing. The fear set in, and I gave it to Him.
Trust God, He knows what He is doing. Even though sometimes it scares us, it's only there to benefit us.
