Chris' prayer: Jason Upton's "Faith"

This song is a helpful reminder when I'm not growing as much as I would like to in my faith. When things aren't going as well as they could be going, when things aren't happening as quickly as I would like them to, when I'm feeling overwhelmed with all the stuff I am supposed to do, this song reminds me of a few things.

First, that even when I'm not fully whole, God is still there. He has not, and will not, abandon me. Second, both of us, He and I, expect more from me, and He's going to be there with me to pick me up and continue to encourage me to make the most of myself and my situation. He is encouraging me to grow. Third, trust. I can trust in that plan He has for me. I can find comfort in that. I can rejoice in it. Lastly, that all that matters, whether it all comes crashing down, or whether it soars higher than ever, is my relationship with Him.

My prayer tonight:
Let my faith arise
