You Are Never Alone




This is part of a song by Colton Dixon; it's called "Never Gone". It's a wonderful song. And this particular quote is very, very true.

Think of the darkest time you went through in your life. Maybe a death, maybe just your own emotions taking a beating.

God was with you, even then. 

Even if you multiply those feelings of darkness by a thousand, a million, or even a billion... God will always be with you. He loves you, and He will always be by your side.

If you protest that no one could possibly love you that much... well... He did. Think about it - He sent his only Son to die.

Die for you.

It's a wonderful and somewhat shocking thing, isn't it? No one these days would expect anyone to die for them; everyone cares too much about their own lives, after all, and you're not worth it anyway, right?

Wrong.

You were worth so much that someone did die for you. He was beaten, scorned, and crucified... for you. At the end of His life, He was even cut off from His own Father, unable to communicate with Him... for you.

You are precious. Someone died for you. You are never alone.

The Light In You

Here is a poem I wrote... it needs some work, and I plan on turning it into a song, but I thought I'd post it here now regardless. :)

The Light In You

For all those who can't stop crying
For all those who have made mistakes
For all those whose family and friends keep lying
For all those who don't know how much more they can take...

You can do it, you can make it through
No matter what happens, you will survive
Even if you think there's nothing you can do
Just carry on, you will make it out alive.

When your heart is filled with lost hope
When everything that should be right is going wrong
When you don't believe that you can cope
When every night is dark and oh so long...

You can do it, you can make it through
No matter what happens, you will survive
Even if you think there's nothing you can do
Just carry on, you will make it out alive.

You're not as worthless as you say
You don't need to run and hide
You're bright as the light of day
You only need to look deep inside.

You can do it, you can make it through
No matter what happens, you will survive
Even if you think there's nothing you can do
Just carry on, you will make it out alive.

There is beauty and light all around
It's everywhere you look, it's everything you do
It's in the sky, it's in the wind's gentle sound
And if you look closely, it's in you too.

Set Me Free


Jesus Christ has the power to set you free from whatever pain, sorrow, or hardships that have you trapped in their grip. You have to give everything wholeheartedly up to Him, and let Him lend you the strength to fight.

Holding On - Jamie Grace


1 Chronicles 28:20 David also said to Solomon his son, "Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you until all the work for the service of the temple of the LORD is finished.
