You Never Let Go...

What an amazing thought that is. It is such a comfort to know that God never lets go. In times when I feel like I'm losing my grip on Him, and no longer holding on with both hands, He NEVER lets go. When I feel like this world has it in for me, nothing is going right, it's just trial, after trial, after trial, He reminds me, I never let go. Or, when I am lonely, and don't have a friend in this world, I need to say to myself, "God, You never let go".

Here is David Crowder's song "You Never Let Go". It is such a wonderful song, and it paints such a beautiful picture of God's love for us. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCkELeTg4hA

That's My Brother?...


Up and at 'em bright and early
I'm all business in my suit
Yeah, I'm dressed up for success
From my head down to my boots


I don't do it for the money
There's bills that I can't pay
I don't do it for the glory
I just do it anyway


Providing for our future's my responsibility
Yeah I'm real good under pressure
Being all that I can be
I can't call in sick on Mondays
When the weekend's been too strong
I just work straight through the holidays
Sometimes all night long


You can bet that I stand ready
When the wolf growls at the door
Yeah I'm solid, yeah I'm steady
Hey I'm true down to the core


And I will always do my duty
No matter what the price
I've counted up the cost
I know the sacrifice
Oh and I don't wanna die for you
But if dying's asked of me
I'll bear that cross with honor
Cause freedom don't come free


I'm an American soldier
An American
Beside my brothers and my sisters
I will proudly take a stand
When liberty's in jeopardy
I'll always do what's right
I'm out here on the front line
Sleep in peace tonight
American soldier
I'm an American soldier

That is TOTALLY my brother. I love you Justin, and I miss you so much. I can't wait to see you!
