"Abba, Father," he said, "everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will." Mark 14:36 (NIV)
This month we are discussing obstacles and how to face them.
The third obstacle in our series is barbed wire. Think of the obstacles that are dangerous to confront, emotional to tackle and appear unmovable.
What do you do when there is nothing you can do? Where do you turn when your situation has you trapped.
Click the player below and listen. We'll learn how to take the risk of faith when the obstacle doesn't look like it will move.
I know you're watching over me
I know you'll see me through
You always have the end in sight
You'll show me what to do
I'm wiping off the fear and doubt
Shaking off the dust
I don't know what the future holds
But your love has won my trust
Your Word is like a gentle lamp
That guides my weary feet
You fill me up with peace and joy
So I cannot feel defeat
A mountain's moved by simple faith
The walls knocked down with shouts
Nothing in the path can stand
When you've erased my doubts
The world it doesn't know me
It cannot understand
But you knit my form together
My name is written on your hand
My actions may seem fearless
Risky and insane
But I have a funny feeling
That I'll walk this way again
I'll clear a path of wisdom
Remove obstacles that block
For my bloodied faith isn't washed away
It's founded on The Rock
It isn't always easy
To walk the hardest way
To face the unexpected
And travel anyway
But His love is my foundation
His grace my starting place
I'll never be abandoned
Or fall down in disgrace
For He holds this very moment
He's set things right for me
So I'll call those things as though the were
Until my eyes can see
