I will call upon Your name And keep my eyes above the waves When oceans rise My soul will rest in Your embrace For I am Yours and You are mine Your grace abounds in deepest waters Your sovereign hand Will be my guide Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me Youve never failed and You wont start now Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders Let me walk upon the waters Wherever You would call me Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander And my faith will be made stronger In the presence of my Savior This month this song is just so relevant. After not getting accommodation at uni I had a real battle with myself about what to do, where will I live, how itll affect me and Chris etc. And it just felt like I was walking into the sea but kept having waves knock me. If you know me, you know Im a fighter but like to fight battles on my own. So I wasnt ready to give this over to God but I knew I needed help. Then I found a few properties but nearly all were taken and I panicked like crazy. There were only two properties we could find available in Farnham so we looked at them and wow what a blessing. They are about two mins walk from each other so me and Chris can be close together. And I thought, thankyou God! But then we had a real problem with money, Chris wasnt sure he could find the money to secure the property. And considering how quick properties go, I was worried it would just be me in one of the houses. Yet another wave. But we had a lot of help from the bank and even got a phone calls from people I wont name offering Chris money for this. What a blessing! The problem now was it is a set 12 month contract and if we didnt get a place, wed still be liable to pay that rent. So then we worried because Chris was waiting for a GCSE result (which he gets in August) needed for his course. But once we called up the uni they actually said he didnt need this GCSE to get into his course, it was just his point score! He asked his tutor for it and she said she didnt have it but knew how well he did so he will be fine. So after all the stress, emotional rollarcoaster, God set out a path for us. So now we are due to pay the admin fee which we both have and the whole process starts! And to top it off, another tenant interested in where Chris wants to live is also studying film. I think its amazing how even when your faith is shakey and you are so fearful, Gods hand is still on you and he provides. What an amazing father to have. To think someone as insignificant as me has had her path laid out and has a God that loves her so much that he provides. Just wow. I feel absolutely blessed and feel like Ive got past the deep waters and now can swim freely. Thankyou Jesus
