Some days are just hard…

I took this photo of Mt. Illimani in La Paz, Bolivia as the sun was setting.

Today is one of those days.

I have been listening to this song and the lyrics have been a helpful reminder of how great God is…

“Steady My Heart” by Kari Jobe

I wish it could be easy
Why is life so messy?
Why is pain a part of us?
There are days I feel like
Nothing ever goes right
Sometimes it just hurts so much

But You’re here
You’re real
I know I can trust You

Even when it hurts
Even when it’s hard
Even when it all just falls apart
I will run to You
Because I know that You are
Lover of my soul
Healer of my scars
You steady my heart

I’m not gonna worry
I know that You’ve got me
Right inside the palm of your hand
Each and every moment
What’s good and what gets broken
Happens just the way You plan

You are here
You’re real
I know I can trust You

Even when it hurts
Even when it’s hard
Even when it all just falls apart
I will run to You
‘Cause I know that You are
Lover of my soul
Healer of my scars
You steady my heart

And I will run to You
And find refuge in Your arms
And I will sing to You
Because of everything You are

You steady my heart

Even when it hurts
Even when it’s hard
Even when it all just falls apart
I will run to You
Because I know that You are
Lover of my soul
Healer of my scars
You steady my heart

I’m not gonna worry
I know that you’ve got me
Right inside the palm of your hand
