I’ve been walking with a weight I didn’t know how to name
Carrying yesterday’s failures and tomorrow’s pain
Some nights I lay awake wondering how I’m still here
How I made it through seasons that tried to break me with fear
But when the world felt heavy and my knees finally bent
You were closer than the breath in my chest
I didn’t hear thunder, didn’t see fire fall
Just a steady kind of peace when I needed it most of all
You didn’t fix everything right away
You just stayed with me through it, day after day
When my thoughts turned dark and my hope felt thin
You were the quiet strength pulling me back in
You’ve been my protector when I didn’t see the danger
My guide when the road made me feel like a stranger
You’ve been my comfort when words wouldn’t come
My strength when I had no strength left to run
You’ve been the light when the night felt long
The mercy that met me when everything went wrong
I’ve tried to do it on my own more times than I can count
Tried to carry the load till my hands gave out
I thought faith meant having all the answers in sight
But You showed me it’s trusting You one step at a time
Not every prayer was answered the way I hoped
But every single one reminded me I wasn’t alone
There were days I questioned if You were still near
Days I let doubt speak louder than truth I could hear
But looking back now, I can clearly see
You were working in ways that were hidden from me
You were shaping my heart, steady and slow
Teaching me things I needed to know
You’ve been my protector when I didn’t see the danger
My guide when the road made me feel like a stranger
You’ve been my comfort when words wouldn’t come
My strength when I had no strength left to run
You’ve been the light when the night felt long
The mercy that met me when everything went wrong
I’ve felt You in the quiet, not the noise
In the gentle pull of a still, small voice
Not pushing, not forcing, not breaking me down
Just reminding me You’re always around
When I felt unworthy, when shame spoke loud
You covered me with grace, not judgment or doubt
I’ve learned that faith isn’t being fearless
It’s moving forward even when the way’s unclear
It’s trusting Your heart when mine feels weak
Believing You’re working even when I can’t see
It’s waking up grateful for one more day
Knowing You’ll meet me along the way
If tomorrow brings trouble I can’t prepare for
I know I won’t face it alone anymore
Not because I’ve got it all figured out
But because I know Who walks with me through the doubt
So I’ll keep putting one foot in front of the other
Led by my Savior, my Father, my comforter
This life I’m living isn’t something I earned
It’s proof of mercy I didn’t deserve
And every step forward, every breath I take
Is held together by the promises You make
LivingProof
