Hillsong - Mighty to Save
Everyone needs compassion,
Love that's never failing;
Let mercy fall on me.
Everyone needs forgiveness,
The kindness of a Saviour;
The Hope of nations.
Saviour, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,
He is Mighty to save.
Forever, Author of salvation,
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave.
So take me as You find me,
All my fears and failures,
Fill my life again.
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in,
Now I surrender.
My Saviour, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,
He is Mighty to save.
Forever, Author of salvation,
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave.
Shine your light and let the whole world see,
We're singing for the glory of the risen King...Jesus (x2)
My Saviour, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,

In light of a lot of things that have been going on lately, my heart has been heavy. Reading daily about baby Stellan in the hospital, struggling with sin in my own life (it's a work in progress), and watching the documentary at AIV's outreach event on sex trafficking - just to name a few - has left me questioning a lot. Does God care about the struggling babies? Why doesn't He just deliver these young girls out of the life of poverty they live in? He is perfectly capable. Why do young babies have to have heart problems and other complications? They're too young to have to go through all this. Just today, I found out that a friend of a couple members in AIV passed away. He was way too young, God. Why do these things happen?
Hearing this song at Knox this past Sunday reminded me that God does have us in His hands. He's perfectly capable of ridding the world of all pain and hurt, but sometimes, He has a bigger story to tell, a bigger plan to show us. Despite the pain and hurt, we can cling onto Him and believe in His faithfulness and His goodness. It's definitely very hard, especially when things don't make sense, but God is constant. The rest of the world is not. And that's enough comfort for me that I can trust that He knows best.
Continue to pray for those who are struggling and hurting - God hears you.
