A Course in Miracles Quotes:
This is the foundation on which their ability to fulfill their function rests. Perception is the result of learning. In fact, perception is learning, because cause and effect are never separated. The teachers of God have trust in the world, because they have learned it is not governed by the laws the world made up. It is governed by a power that is in them but not of them. It is this power that keeps all things safe. It is through this power that the teachers of God look on a forgiven world.
When this power has once been experienced, it is impossible to trust one’s own petty strength again. Who would attempt to fly with the tiny wings of a sparrow when the mighty power of an eagle has been given him? And who would place his faith in the shabby offerings of the ego when the gifts of God are laid before him? What is it that induces them to make the shift?
The music video is so beautiful in expressing the heart of the message of the song. The dancers are inside an empty building. This is symbolic of the meaninglessness of the world. The snow falling is symbolic of the Holy Spirit’s forgiven perspective of innocence. The dancers seem at first glance to be erraticly moving. But, as you continue to watch it becomes clear that, in fact, they are moving with beautiful precision.
‘I Trust You‘ is a prayer in action. Both the lyrics and the dancing give the viewer a sense of the divine and a strengthening of the faith and trust that is vital for the spiritual journey.
“Even when I can’t see the full plan
Everything seems to make no sense
I know that You’re in control“
Lyrics:
I know You are for me
But sometimes it's hard to believe
That you're working things out for me
That I can't see
I can't see
I'm walking with blindfolds on
But You're more sure than the ground that I stand on
I know that You won't cave
You won't cave in
So I trust You
Even when I can't see the full plan
Everything seems to make no sense
I know that You're in control
In control
I trust You
Even when I don't understand
My life is in Your hands
I know that You're in control
In control (whoa)
yeah, yeah
(Yeah-yeah) yeah, yeah (yeah-yeah)
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah) yeah, yeah
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
You make ways out of no way
You've been faithful all my days
So why do I doubt when You say
You will never leave me?
You will never forsake me, no, nah
You know my every need
Before I can say a thing
Your promise is yes and amen
Yes and amen
So I trust You
Even when I can't see the full plan
Everything seems to make no sense
I know that You're in control
In control
I trust You
Even when I don't understand
My life is in Your hands
I know that You're in control
In control
yeah, yeah
(Yeah-yeah) yeah, yeah (yeah-yeah)
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah) yeah, yeah
(Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)
You got me, You got me
And you'll never let me go
I don't have to worry (don't worry)
Don't worry (don't worry)
'Cause I know You're in control
You got me (You got me), You got me (You got me)
And you'll never let me go
I don't have to worry (don't worry)
Don't worry (don't worry)
'Cause I know You're in control
I trust You
Even when I can't see the full plan
Everything seems to make no sense
I know that You're in control
In control
I trust You
Even when I don't understand
My life is in Your hands
I know that You're in control
In control
