If He wants us to...

This morning I added a song by Ginny Owens called "If you want me to"

The lyrics are:

The pathway is broken And The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why You brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley If You want me to
Chorus: Cause I'm not who I was When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet
so if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will go through the fire If You want me to
It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone
So When the whole world turns against me And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering Your love put You through
And I will go through the darkness If You want me to
When I cross over Jordan, I'm gonna sing, gonna shout
Gonna look into your eyes and see you never let me down
So take me on the pathway that leads me home to you
And I will walk through the valley if you want me to
Yes, I will walk through the valley if you want me to

I don't know why God has asked us to wait these 10 1/2 months for our daughter. I don't know why there's no end (that we see) in sight. But we trust Him and we know that He didn't come down off the throne and get busy doing something else. He is still in control. We will trust Him and we will walk through this valley if He wants us to. And we will know that He's always been there and never let us down. It all leads us home to Him.
