The Voice Of Truth

"Oh what I would do to have
the kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant!
With just a sling and a stone.
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
shaking in their armor, 

wishing they'd have had the strength to stand.

... the stone was just the right size
to put the giant on the ground.
And the waves they don't seem so high,
from on top of them looking down.
I'll soar with the wings of eagles,
when I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
singing over me.

And the Voice of Truth tells me a different story.

The Voice of Truth says, 'Do not be afraid!'

The Voice of Truth says, 'This is for My glory.'

Out of all the voices calling out to me,

I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth."

Today I overheard bits of a conversation between Aron, Simon, and Joy's mom and another co-worker (she works as a cook at the restaurant) and how sad and discouraged she is about Simon. I saw Mrs. Renae briefly when she came to pick up her youngest daughter from the academy this afternoon. And I saw 'my brown-eyed boy' when he came to pick up his two younger brothers.

On the way back to the house after leaving town, I cried harder than I've cried since all that heartbreak last year. Simon and 'my brown-eyed boy' - how far away they've gone from the Lord and from those who love them! Dear God! Only You can get hold of them, get their attention, or bring them back now!

I've gotten in the habit of turning on the radio on my drives to and from town, and this song ("The Voice of Truth") came on the station. It was just the comfort and reminder I needed. He is in control! He has my boys! He has Mrs. Renae! And He is working it all out for His glory.
