Oceans

You call me out upon the waters

The great unknown where feet may fail

And there I find You in the mystery

In oceans deep

My faith will stand

And I will call upon Your name

And keep my eyes above the waves

When oceans rise

My soul will rest in Your embrace

For I am Yours and You are mine

Your grace abounds in deepest waters

Your sovereign hand

Will be my guide

Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me

You've never failed and You won't start now

So I will call upon Your name

And keep my eyes above the waves

When oceans rise

My soul will rest in Your embrace

For I am Yours and You are mine

Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders

Let me walk upon the waters

Wherever You would call me

Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander

And my faith will be made stronger

In the presence of my Savior

I will call upon Your Name

Keep my eyes above the waves

My soul will rest in Your embrace

I am Yours and You are mine

- Oceans (where feet may fail) by: Hillsong United

     I love this song and the story that it depicts.

 Being led out into the storms of this life and looking to God for direction and protection in every step.

 Taking steps into the unknown, not knowing what to expect, but relying fully on God.

The song cries out in my head, turning my thoughts to nothing but how faithful God is.

God will place us in situations in our lives, with sole purposes of having us grow in our faith and trust. 

God wants us to turn to Him, not anything else. When we are struggling, we shouldn't shrug it off and distract our minds with sports, electronics, or anything else. God wants us to stop what we're doing and turn ourselves and our situation over to Him.

If you have a situation that you're struggling with, don't try to deal with it by yourself or not acknowledge it all, trust God with it!
