Description
From Chapter 61, “Trust,” of It’s Impossible by J H McIntosh — Act III: Trust and Letting Go.
Aaron understands the love he has for Belle was a gift from a higher power. That's why he's able to sing: "If trust is built one breath at a time, I’ll wait right here, Your timing, not mine." Some will hear "Your" and think “Belle,” but Aaron is referring to his Creator. This song is a invitation to explore a love grounded in patience and presence, where strength is found in stillness rather than pursuit. It encourages embracing what we cannot control with a quiet confidence, trusting the natural unfolding of connection without force or expectation. It reminds us that true love creates a safe space for growth and freedom, teaching us to wait with open hearts.
Lyrics
I finally see what You’ve been showing me,
Love isn’t movement, it’s how still I can be.
I thought love meant I had to prove my place,
Earn every step, keep up the pace.
But now I know what You require,
A quieter heart, a holier fire.
I’ll live each day so she feels safe with me,
Not claimed, not chased, just free to be.
If trust is built one breath at a time,
I’ll wait right here, Your timing, not mine.
I didn’t arrive here the way I planned,
It took broken roads to understand.
What is, is… what You help me to see,
What ain’t, ain’t… what You’re shaping in me.
I’ll live each day so she feels safe with me,
Not claimed, not chased, just free to be.
If trust is built one breath at a time,
I’ll wait right here, Your timing, not mine.
Father, place my wanting far away,
Teach my body how my soul should stay.
Thank You for letting something deeper grow,
A love that kneels even before it knows.
I’ve seen a future I can’t force to hold,
Sunflowers bright, courage You made bold.
If that day comes, I’ll meet her there,
At the altar…that will always be my prayer.
I’ll live each day so she feels safe with me,
Not claimed, not chased, just free to be.
If trust is built one breath at a time,
I’ll wait right here, Your timing, not mine.
I wait on the Lord with my heart wide open,
Not passive faith, but trust never broken.
If trust is built one breath at a time,
I’ll stand right here… Your timing, not mine.
