It's the beginning of the New Year. A fresh start brings hope. Ultimately, hope in the Lord does not disappoint, but sometimes looking around at the world can be discouraging.
That's why I like this song by Nicole Nordeman, which puts things in perspective. It just says, in various ways, that the things the heart longs for will be fulfilled, someday.
Someday all that's crazy
All that's unexplained
Will fall into place
And someday all that's hazy
Through a clouded glass
Will be clear at last.
And for those days when our spirits really groan within us, Nordeman reminds us,
And sometimes we're just waiting
For someday.
Waiting implies faith in some future thing, and it implies not giving up. This song encourages me to not give up faith as I wait.
"Someday," by Nicole Nordeman, from the 2005 Sparrow Records album Brave.
