I was coming home today, I had on K-Love and the song "My Savior, My God" by Aaron Shust was playing and as I listened to the lyrics it just hit me. I have heard this song 100 times and I know the lyrics by heart, but today it took on a whole new meaning for me. I have been through so much in my life and just to know that My Savior's Always There For Me was so powerful! At the times in my life where I have felt the most alone and felt like I could turn to no one, there was God just reaching down and telling me to turn to Him! There were times in my life that I didn't want to turn to God and I wanted so much to blame God for all that has happened in my life and yet He was still right there waiting for me, how powerful of a message!
I can remember a time right after my parents had separated and I had moved 180 miles away from what I knew as my home, I just couldn't fathom the thought of God even being anywhere close to where I needed him to be. I was attending church before my parents and I prayed for my parents to not separate and for God to make them fall in love again. I was on the altar praying my heart out and crying out to God, please just hear my cry. My parents did split and after that, church was the last place I wanted to be. I remember shouting at God, why would you let this happen, how could you let this happen. It took me many years to realize that the choices my parents made had nothing to do with God, they made the choice.
Through some of the other hardships of life, I have realized that MY SAVIOR WAS ALWAYS THERE FOR ME, just waiting for me to accept him and let him be my comfort when I needed it most. Even in the worse moments of life, God has used His infinite wisdom and power to show me the good in all! I may not have always felt the giant hand of God, but I know now He Was Always There For Me, just waiting for me to grab on! Praise God, My Savior Lives, My Savior Loves, and most of all, MY SAVIOR'S ALWAYS THERE FOR ME!
