What Faith Can Do

Lately I've been discouraged and in a pit. Let me rephrase that. It seemed like a pit but when I would talk to Tate and Danyelle about it, the pit really was more the size of a dimple. Just the result of my bad habit of making mountains out of molehills. I need to change a lot of my thinking habits and personality traits that have been around since what I call the "dark years". It is a very daunting task if I try to do it BY MYSELF. And if I did change, it wouldn’t last long because my strength is limited. I was reminded that he source of true change comes from God. I had been running these things through my mind when KLOVE played the new Kutless song, “What Faith Can Do”. It was as if God was whispering, “Nothing is impossible for Me. Stand still and let me work.” I posted the lyrics below in case someone else needs to hear God whisper to their heart.

WHAT FAITH CAN DO
By Kutless

Everybody falls sometimes
Gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes and make a new beginning
Anyone can feel the ache
You think its more than you can take
But you are stronger, stronger than you know
Don't you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do

It doesn't matter what you've heard
Impossible is not a word
It's just a reason for someone not to try
Everybody's scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It'll be alright
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do

Overcome the odds
You do have a chance
(That's what faith can do)
When the world says you can't
It'll tell you that you can!
I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do
That's what faith can do!
Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise
