Never Let Go

So....this week my commute increased from 20 minutes to 40 minutes. I was not very happy about this in the beginning....I've known for a few months that the location of my work was changing. But...today, I had a revelation of sorts. I can pray! DUH! I can use those twenty extra minutes and focus on my ever growing prayer list. This morning I put in my copy of the David Crowder Band--Remedy. I love this CD...and so does my husband. We are both big David Crowder Band fans. That is why we were so excited to attend their concert in October of 2007. What a treat! Anyway, I digress...on my way to work I was enjoying the sunshine...thank you Jesus and worshipping with this CD. I just had to share this song with you all....I love it. Now, granted I have listened to this CD many, many times, but....sometimes the words will just begin to minister to you. I so love it when that happens. It happened to me this morning. So, while praying and worshipping with my eyes filled with tears (don't worry, they were open) my 40 minute commute was not wasted. Here are the lyrics:

"Never Let Go"
When clouds veil sun
And disaster comes
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul
When waters rise
And hope takes flight
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul

Ever faithful
Ever true
You I know
You never let go
You never let go
You never let go
You never let go

When clouds brought rain
And disaster came
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul
When waters rose
And hope had flown
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul

Oh, my soul

Oh, my soul
Overflows
Oh, what love, oh, what love
Oh, my soul
Fills hope
Perfect love that never lets go

Oh, what love, oh, what love
Oh, what love, oh, what love
In joy and pain
In sun and rain
You're the same
Oh, you never let go

It just became so evident to me that no matter what God is there. No matter what you have gone through or are going through HE NEVER LETS GO!! Isn't that so cool?? In joy and pain, sun and rain. I think we forget He's there when we're in the sun, but...oh boy, when the rain comes we cling to Him like never before. We need to remember he's there for us at ALL times.
