Help ... I've Fallen and I Can't Get Up!

Let's face it ... every Christian goes through trials and tribulations in life. Accepting Christ doesn't mean that your life is suddenly a bed of roses. Trials and temptations don't go away and you're not "off limits" to Satan and his tricks.

Yes, as your faith matures, you will find it possible (and sometimes even easier) to win the battles, but there will be times that you feel like you just can't win; times when you feel like you've fallen and you just can't get back up. There will be times when you feel like God isn't answering you (much like David spoke of in Psalm 22).

When you find yourself in the middle of one of those times, take heart. Feeling lost and alone doesn't mean that you're a "bad Christian" and you're certainly not the only person in the world to ever hit a rough spot. Plenty of other Christians have found themselves in pools of darkness, unable to see where the darkness ends and the light begins. The following songs describe those times perfectly ...

1. Wait for the Sun - Destination 7 (Listen to song)
   From the song ...

   I know you're lost and lonely
   Waiting only for someone to show they care
   Things seem so far beyond, you reach out crying
   But there is no one there.

2. Give It Up Let It Go - Mary Mary (Compare prices)
   From the song ...

   When you've shed so many tears
   Until you
   Just can't cry no more
   When your confidence is gone
   And of yourself you're not very sure
   Lyrics

5. Listen with Your Heart - CeCe Winans (Compare prices)

   And when this world has got your mind confused

   The strength you need lies deep, lies deep in you
   Lyrics

6. On My Own - BarlowGirl (Compare prices) | (Purchase/Download)
   From the song ...

   Always thought that I would be strong enough
   What made all of them fall couldn't take me down
   Yeah, did I think that I was above it all?
   I have learned that pride comes before the fall
   Lyrics

8. When All That's Left Is To Believe - Clay Crosse (Compare prices)

   But You said it would set me free
   Somewhere in the pain
   You must have a plan for me

9. Back To Me - Building 429 (Compare prices) | (Purchase/Download)
   From the song ...

   Ice melts to reveal a frozen soul
   And the water rises to new suffocating heights
   And it feels like you’re drowning in desperation
   Cause everything that lit up your life has been covered in the darkness
   Lyrics

10. Mistakes - Kutless (Compare prices) | (Purchase/Download)

    See all the things I’ve tried
    Looking for a truth inside
    But only finding pain
