Peace Runs Deep in Him

It's one of those moments when truth rips a seam in the sky and you wonder why you were all worried
afraid
unbelieving.

When all day long you'd been thinking how haphazard and out-of control life feels, then you find yourself in a place where everything fits together and the Author ushers your soul into communion with the firm pen in His hand and you understand

He is in control.

This is divine, this is real, when the fog lifts and the confusion is peeled

back

and deep in your soul you feel the presence of the Lord.

And you're humbled, and you're grateful-- despite my unbelief, complaint and distrust He remained faithful.

He remained kind.

And oh so gracefully, oh so kindly, He brought all this truth to mind.

Lord Jesus next time let me believe you, receive you, trust you. Thank you for your forgiveness today and your empowering grace for tomorrow.

"Shame on you, shame on me
Lord he took all our shame and pain, and set men free
And I’ve got that fire on the mountain
Fire in my soul
It’s been a long time coming, long time
And ready to go
I’m stepping out the door
Doing what feels right
Following my Lord, through the darkest night
And when the path gets narrow
I’ll follow him
And when the world comes down, around
I’ll follow him
He said, sing it on the mountain
Or in the valley low
He’s my God, and he never let me go
He said, sing it on the mountain
Or fight in valley low
Every mans going to see, and everyone will know
That peace runs deep in him
I said peace runs deep in him
Peace runs deep in him."
