Trajectory

It doesn't really matter what we conclude about the extent of God's power. His power is absolute and infinite. There is nothing we can do to control God, stop God, or cause God to act as we want Him to act. What we can do is line up our lives with God's plan and purpose. We can choose to put our faith in what God can do and what God says He will do, rather than discount His Word or dismiss it as invalid. We cannot fully control the trajectory of any relationship, career, or ministry effort. Only God determines the outcome of seeds we plant and the faith we voice.

I Can Hear

I just heard David Crowder's version of "I Can Hear the Angels Singing" and I really liked it. Different, as to be expected from Mr. Crowder, but well done. I heard it on Pandora, so you might have to dig around if you want to listen to it yourself.

I can hear the angels singing
As I walk this rocky road
For my thoughts are all of heaven
And my Savior's blest abode

Oh, I can hear the angels singing
I can hear my Savior's voice
And I'll soon be singing with them
Though endless ages we'll rejoice

I can hear the angels singing
Of my Savior's blessed love
How he died to build a mansion
For his children up above

And it was followed by by "You Never Let Go". This is why I love Pandora. It plays stuff I like!

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I’m caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won’t turn back
I know You are near

And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

Chorus:
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We’ll live to know You here on the earth

Chorus.

Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You

Chorus. (2x’s)
