Comforting....
You Never Let GoEven though I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death,
Your perfect love is casting out fear.
And even when I´m caught in the middle
Of the storms of this life,I won´t turn back;
I know You are near.
And I will fear no evil,
For my God is with me.
And if my God is with me,Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?
O no, You never let go,
Through the calm and through the storm
O no, You never let go,In every high and every low
O no, You never let go, Lord You never let go of me.
And I can see a light that is comingfor the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare.
And there will be an end to these troubles,
But until that day comes,
We´ll live to know You here on the earth.
Yes, I can see a light that is coming
For the heart that holds on,
And there will be an end To these troubles,
But until that day comes,
Still I will praise You, Still I will praise You.

I've been listening to this song all week and thinking about the lyrics. Then last night I went to mannafest and they sang it in the praise and it was so amazing. It was like God was really reasuring me that its true. I find it so difficult to believe that even when I mess up God is still there and when I'm going through storms in life he is there being my life boat...even if I don't want to be saved at that time, which is what usually happens coz I don't think I'm worthy of being saved and that I brought on these storms myself. Which I guess is true sometimes. So I encourage you guys to listen and think about the lyrics of this song. Even if you don't really like Matt, but I think the lyrics of his songs are really powerful.
Today, I've had a lot thrown at me. In bible class one of our elders came to speak about the 2nd coming of Christ in. And it was tough stuff, and there are so many tricks we could fall into just like Adam and Eve did...so this makes me more determind to be stronger in my faith with God so I can stand this testing. My mum has been giving me a hard time recently and I just don't know what to do, how to help her etc and she doesn't seem to notice that she is making me even more stressed! And herself. Life is difficult. But I just have to remember this simple fact: I've choosen the good life not the easy life!
O, Rach and Rose, you guys didn't miss much at mannafest, of course the worship was fantastic as usual but loads of people where outraged with the talk. I shall explain when I see ya's!
