There's nothing He can't do for you

My God is so big, so strong and so mighty
There's nothing my God cannot do for you
My God is so big, so strong and so mighty
There's nothing my God cannot do for you

The mountains are His
The valleys are His
The stars are His
Handiwork too
O..o...

My God is so big, so strong and so mighty
There's nothing my God cannot do for you

This past two weeks, this song has been a hit in my class. We sing it together before morning prayer. About two days ago, I was about to cry when I saw my students sang excitedly this song. Somehow, they emphasized God's attributes in this song: big, strong, mighty, and nothing He cannot do.

Having a struggle and worry about my family's future, I feel thankful that everyday God reminds me that He is big. He is strong (how many times I feel so weak?). Every time my students sing out this song aloud, I feel like they're encouraging me by saying, "There's nothing my God cannot do for you."

It has been so hard to hold on God's promises when I see greater hardship. It has been hard to stand on God's promises when I see my future plan, even my parent's dream seems broken. If life-challenges are mountains, then I'm not strong enough to climb them.

But the mountains are His.

As a kindergarten teacher, I have to smile in front of my students, no matter how deep is my sorrow. And somehow the song plays again on my mind: the valleys are His.

Well, how about the dark valley?

The valleys are His.

Okay. I just don't like this valley. Although this is yours, Lord.

I want a bright life. Shining stars. Beautiful. Peaceful. Content.

Even the stars are His.

So what should I do? This struggle is getting bigger. The more I think of it, the weaker I am.

My God is so big, so strong and so mighty. There's nothing my God cannot do for you.

I'm giving up, Lord. I'm too small, too weak, too powerless. There's nothing I can do. Help me to trust you, the BIG God, the STRONG God, and the MIGHTY God. I know that you can do anything just in a blink of an eye, but please give me patience and perseverance. Help me to trust you. Let this song always sing out and reminds me about you, Lord.
