I know whom I have believed (I know not why God's wondrous grace)

This morning at church, this hymn was sang. And it reminded me exactly what I should do since days or even weeks ago. I got job offers and I decided that I'm going to make the decision during this weekend. But still this thing was, if I could say, running crazy in my mind. I considered all possibilities and all aspects and they were endless :)
At one moment, I decided to go this way, but upon hearing other facts then I decided to go that way. And it went on and on, I tried many things to steer it to my so called ideal plan. But it just won't go as I wish it would.
Now I know it's time for me to get off, be still, open my eyes and ears. And I'm sure that I will be surprised by how God will lead me and show me the way.... as he already had and will always be.


I know not why God's wondrous grace
To me He hath made known,
Nor why, unworthy, Christ in love
Redeemed me for His own.

But I know Whom I have believed
And am persuaded that He is able
To keep that which I've committed
Unto Him against that day.

I know not how this saving faith
To me He did impart,
Nor how believing in His word
Wrought peace within my heart.

I know not how the Spirit moves,
Convincing men of sin,
Revealing Jesus through the Word,
Creating faith in Him.

I know not what of good or ill
May be reserved for me,
Of weary ways or golden days,
Before His face I see.

I know not when my Lord may come,
At night or noon-day fair,
Nor if I'll walk the vale with Him,
Or meet Him in the air.


My prayer is that God will forgive me for my foolishness in not looking to Him for this matter, thinking that I could handle it and steer it myself. How conceited I was, amazing grace how sweet the sound... I was blind but now I see.
