Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.
....I have been stirring over numerous things that I want to write about and share... but for today, I feel that these lyrics say enough.
Some days.. I have so many questions.. but thankfully I am at a place in my faith where there is peace in knowing that "Farther along we'll know all about it."
And in this place.. I am ok... we are ok... because we trust God and His plan for our lives...
the journey... it is the path that we desire and strive to stay on..
.. so.. click on the youtube link.. sit back and listen :)
... pay attention to the lyrics....
and cheer up my brothers and sisters and live in the SONshine!!
Farther Along - Josh Garrels (My current FAVORITE artist..)

Farther along we'll know all about it
Farther along we'll understand why
So, cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine
We'll understand this, all by and by
Tempted and tried, I wondered why
The good man died, the bad man thrives
And Jesus cries because he loves 'em both
We're all cast-aways in need of rope
Hangin' on by the last threads of our hope
In a house of mirrors full of smoke
Confusing illusions I've seen
Where did I go wrong, I sang along
To every chorus of the song
That the devil wrote like a piper at the gates
Leading mice and men down to their fates
But some will courageously escape
The seductive voice with a heart of faith
While walkin' that line back home
So much more to life than we've been told
It's full of beauty that will unfold
And shine like you struck gold my wayward son
That deadweight burden weighs a ton
Go down into the river and let it run
Wash away all the things you've done
Forgiveness alright
Farther along we'll know all about it
Farther along we'll understand why
So, cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine
We'll understand this, all by and by
Still I get hard pressed on every side
Between the rock and a compromise
Like the truth and pack of lies fightin' for my soul
And I've got no place left go
'Cause I got changed by what I've been shown
More glory than the world has known
Keeps me ramblin' on
Skipping like a calf loosed from its stall
I'm free to love once and for all
And even when I fall I'll get back up
For the joy that overflows my cup
Heaven filled me with more than enough
Broke down my levees and my bluffs
Let the flood wash meAnd one day when the sky rolls back on us
Some rejoice and the others fuss
'Cause every knee must bow and tongue confess
That the Son of God is forever blessed
His is the kingdom, we're the guests
So put your voice up to the test
Sing Lord, come soon (YES!!!!)
Farther along we'll know all about it
Farther along we'll understand why
So, cheer up my brothers, live in the sunshine
We'll understand this, all by and by
Romans 8:28 ESV
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.
