"Bigger Than I Thought"5/6/2020 Welcome to a new month! May is officially a month of new life and new growth. Trees are blossoming, flowers are blooming, gardens are being planted, and sunshine basks the landscape. Birds sing their songs of praise to God and fly about looking for food and fun, while butterflies flutter on the gentle breezes. It’s a time of freshness and new beginnings. While for many of us this is a different spring than we could ever have imagined, it can be a season of new beginnings for us too. This month, we will continue to lift our eyes off our situations and circumstances and fix them on our precious Lord and Savior—the One who knows and holds the future, and the One who sees and knows exactly what we’re going through. We’ll kick off this month and new worship set with a song that has become dear to many during this season of unknown. It’s a song that is a dialog between us and God. It opens with an honest conversation that God is bigger than we think. Then this song moves to a place of surrender. A place of declaring that, since God is bigger than we could ever imagine, He is worthy of our trust. This is a timely message for us as we face an unknown future. Therefore, I hope and pray that you’ll take a moment to ponder and pray this song to God. Sing it from a place of honesty, vulnerability, and sincerity. It won’t necessarily change your circumstances, but it will transform your perspective. Through this song, the power of God can work and speak to you so that you can heartily join in with the bridge which submits and commits to trusting God: “I will rest In the Father’s hands Leave the rest In the Father’s hands” We are living in crazy, unbelievable times. However, none of this took God by surprise. So if through this season we can learn one thing and acknowledge that God is bigger than we thought, we can walk out of this pandemic into a new season. A new season of trust, faith, and absolute belief that no matter what happens, our Abba Father’s got it and He’s got us. May this song speak to your soul and give you a fresh perspective on who God is. Here’s “Bigger Than I Thought” by Passion. "Bigger Than I Thought" by Passion Speak to me When the silence steals my voice You understand me You understand me Come to me In the valley of unknowns You understand me You understand me You understand me, God You understand me So I throw all my cares before You My doubts and fears don't scare You You're bigger than I thought You were You're bigger than I thought I stop all negotiations With the God of all creation You're bigger than I thought You were You're bigger than I thought You were So much bigger than I thought You're bigger than I thought You were I believe But help my unbelief You understand me You understand me Help me reach The faith that's underneath You understand me You understand me Yes, You understand me, God You understand me I throw all my cares before You My doubts and fears don't scare You You're bigger than I thought You were You're bigger than I thought I stop all negotiations With the God of all creation You're bigger than I thought You were You're bigger than I thought You were I will rest in the Father's hands Leave the rest in the Father's hands I will rest in the Father's hands Leave the rest in the Father's hands So I throw all my cares before You My doubts and fears don't scare You You're bigger than I thought You were You're bigger than I thought I stop all negotiations With the God of all creation You're bigger than I thought You were You're bigger than I thought You're so much bigger than I thought You were You're bigger than I thought You were You're bigger than I thought You were
