"I Need You Now [How Many Times]" is a single recently put out by Plumb. I had to share its truth with you!
Read the chorus:
How many times have you heard me cry out, God please take this?
How many times have you given me strength to just keep breathing?
Oh I need you, God, I need you now!
Notice how the idea goes from "take this away" to "I need YOU." That's the point! He will do what He has to do to get me where He wants me to be; AND YET, He will also provide the means of getting there and the grace to sustain me along the way.
This is my life-long lesson. Sometimes, whatever "this" is, IS God's best for me. This is His will, He set it up to be this way. Sometimes, all He grants is the strength to just keep breathing. I choke on this reality more often than I'd care to admit.
Listen to the whole song here!
** UPDATE: Plumb re-titled her new album with this song in light of the Newtown shooting last week.
What an opportunity for the truth of this song!
