Stepping Out

I made a decision tonight - to step out and quit my job A job that I have for 20 years A job that I love I don't know what I am going to do But I know whatever it is He has me there I don't know whether it is a step of faith But I am scared sless I don't know how I am going to make my mortgage payments I don't know where the money is going to come from I don't know how I am going to live But I know He has me there A friend was telling me a story about her stepping out She said "if you don't do what He wants when He wants you to step out You are going to lose everything" Yeah that does make sense Because He rules So I am scared Yet I want to obey Yet I don't want to lose everything So yeah a rock and a hard place So yeah God hear me This thing is on You If I suffer, if I am less that I was If anything I am going to get You So hear me God? I am gonna do this just for You Where? I don't know where What? I don't know what With whom? Ahh never mind I just do whatever it comes to my mind So if it's yours, great If it's not, too bad 'cause I know not You know this thing is coming, don't you? You've been leading me through it I have some inklings That I am going to walk by faith - one of these days Well, that day is here Hope You are happy 'cause I am not! Am I?
