Staying strong

Encouragement comes only when you listen for it.. here is a song that gave it to me..

You're in the moment now
A bitter root A wandering eye
and then The ties that bind start wearing thin, thin
You're in the moment now
When all you've been blessed with Is not enough
Here's where the ground gets loose
Here's where the devils call your bluff

Stay strong You are not lost
Come on and fix your eyes ahead
There's a new dawn to light our day, our day
You've gotta stay strong

You and I run For the prize that lies ahead
We've come too far to lose our way, our way
We've seen the tragic flaws
The tortured souls The saints with feet of clay
Here's where sin becomes cliche'
We've come through wilderness and watched
The cloud by day The burning sky into dawn

Have you forgotten who you are?
Did you forget whose trip you're on?
Stay strong You are not lost
Come on and fix your eyes ahead
There's a new dawn to light our day, our day
We've gotta stay strong
You and I run For the prize that lies ahead
We've come too far to lose our way, our way

Get up, there's further to go
Get up, there's more to be done
Get up, this witness is sure
Get up, this race can be won
This race can be won
We've gotta stay strong
You are not lost

Come on and fix your eyes ahead
Our Father's dawn will light our day, our day
Come on and stay strong
His grip is sure
And His patience still endures
There'll be no letting go today, no way
Come on, and stay strong
You and I run For the prize that lies ahead

We've come too far to lose our way, our way

Fruit: Peace
Song in my head: Stay strong -Newsboys
Verse:Philippians 3:14I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

Reminds me of Philippians 3:14 - "I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."
