This morning the Lord comforted me in the midst of the various trials this week by bringing another song to my mind. He reminded me and reassured me that as I seek HIS will, HIS ways, and HIS truth in my life HE will always be standing with me. He will NEVER leave me nor forsake me; for that I can never stop rejoicing! The peace I have comes from having let go of my will and instead living out the “So be it, YOUR will be done, LORD; not mine”. The trials we face every single day are HIS sacred ground of supernatural work within us, for they are the preparations for the future only HE knows about.
“Rejoice! All joy deem it, my brethren, whenever you should be falling into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith is producing endurance. Now let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and unimpaired, lacking in nothing.” (James 1:2-4)

With visible breath, I'm calling your name
With visible tracks, I'm finding my way
With a sorrowful heart, I honor this pain
And offer these tears to the rain
In a moment of truth at the top of the hill
I open my arms and let go of my will
And stand with my face to the wind
With the storm beating down on this sacred ground
If I stand for the grace that I've known
For what I believe
Then I won't stand alone
No, I won't stand alone
There's a new pair of eyes to embrace all I see
A new piece of mind and it comes quietly
There's a joy in my heart that You've given to me
And I offer this soul's melody
So I beat on my chest till my song has been sung
And I cry like a wolf at the top of my lungs
And stand with my face to the wind
With the storm beating down on this sacred ground
If I stand for the grace that I've known
For what I believe
Then I won't stand alone
No, I won't stand alone
When the thundering voices of doubt try to shake my faith, oh
I'll be listening from inside out and I won't be afraid to
Stand with my face to the wind
With the storm beating down on this sacred ground
If I stand for the grace that I've known
For what I believe
Then I won't stand alone
No I won't stand...I won't stand alone…woah, woah…oh
(“Stand” sung by Susan Ashton)
Never standing alone for He is ever with me…
For HIS praise, in HIS strength, and for HIS glory…
