3. “God Is On The Move” by 7eventh Time Down
Inspiring lyrics
“Anytime in weakness someone falls upon their knees
Or dares to speak the truth that sets men free
Anytime the choice is made to stand upon the Word
I know, I know, I know, I know
God is on the move, on the move
Hallelujah”
Just like us, when God is on the move, the best is yet to come. While making the move to our most recent station, this song came on when I was feeling a little sorry for myself. When my husband and I began dating, he was a cadet at the Unites States Military Academy. I learned right away that his career goal was to become an instructor at West Point, which ultimately meant that he planned to serve for 20 years in the Army.
That wasn’t what I envisioned for my life. I wanted our children to grow up with their grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. I wanted to attend our nephews’ sports events and I wanted our parents to see our daughter’s dance recitals. I eventually accepted that a life in the military would be my life, but it still wasn’t my perfect plan.
But, I’ve since learned that God’s plan is far better than my own, and I know this is His plan for our lives. He wants me to be His missionary in the military. Even though I know this, I wasn’t thrilled to be moving to West Point, 3,000 miles away from our families. But then I heard these lyrics and I realized I should be excited to move. I trust that He’s going to do mighty things through us during our time in New York.
