my god is great

Matt Redman - You Never Let Go
From the album Passion 06: Everything Glorious

Even 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?

Chorus:
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

And I can see a light that is coming for 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

Chorus:

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

Chorus: (2x’s)

put it on repeat. sing it at the top of your lungs. love the sound of praise you offer because he deserves it.

is it shocking to realize "you can see god tonight... if you wanna"? do you believe it? can you fully wrap your mind around the fact that a god so great is so available so often, as in always. I often have to ask myself: Why are you fighting so hard for yourself? Is fighting for my happiness on Earth really more important when God has already prepared a home for me? Why do you spend so much time fighting for ourself when you should be fighting for yourself? It's a conviction i have recently been finding myself repeating in times of need. I have lately been so incontent with the typical life i lead and i forget god put me in this exact place for a very specific reason, to share his truth, not to endulge in the "good life". I am all about me. Shamelessly i ask god for whatever my heart desires. Gracefully he always gives it to me. I deserve none of what i have. Questioning god on his timing makes it all about me. why do i find myself always coming back to me? I am more into me. My god is too small. I have put him in a neatly labeleed box.... But my god is not time. He is the only constant, the great I AM. My god does not stop, will not stop. He does not die, is not born. My gos is neverending and allpowerful. My god overcomes.

And if my god is with me, Whom then shall I fear? Whom then shall I fear?
