You hold me now.

I really love this song. It so comforting to listen to in this time in my life. I realize how much God is in control and how He won't ever leave me. And that He is with me and helping me through this pain that i'm in because of my back. My dad kept on asking God why this had to happen to me. And God told my dad how this was an attack of the devil. And God is always re-assuring me of how he is providing for me, and helaing me. This song is one of the ways i realize this. The song is called You Hold Me Now, by Hillsong United.

On that day when I see
All that You have for me
When I see You face to face
There surrounded by Your grace

All my fears swept away
In the light of your embrace
When Your love is all I need
And forever I am free

Where the streets are made of gold
In Your presence here to hold
Let these songs of heaven rise to you alone

No weeping, no hurt or pain
No suffring You hold me now
You hold me now
No darkness no sick or lame,
No hiding You hold me now,
You hold me now

In this life i will stand
Through my joy and my pain
Knowing there's a greater day
There's a hope that never fails
When You're name is lifted high
And forever praises last
For the glory of Your Name
I'll be living for the day


Were the wars and violent cease
All creation lives in peace
Let the songs of heaven rise to you alone

No weeping, no hurt or pain
No suffering You hold me now
You hold me now
No darkness no sick or lame.
No hiding You hold me now,
You hold me now

For eternity
All my heart will give
All the glory to Your name

No weeping, no hurt or pain

No suffering You hold me now
You hold me now
No darkness no sick or lame,
No hiding You hold me now,
You hold me now.

..::From the Inside Out::..

For Kenya this year what Gavin Audagnotti is doing is he's letting each of the team members pick one song that is really close to their heart. Like, one of those songs to where when you turn it on you just feel deep in your heart that you need to worship, It speaks to you. He's doing this so that when we worship it won't be some random song that he picked, It'll bring us to that place with God. And my automatic choice was the song From the Inside Out by Hillsong United. When ever that song is on my iPod I just want to break myself down for God. I can't really explain it, But if any of y'all have ever been to Y.F.N. before you know what i mean. It's sort of like the feeling to where God consumes you so much that you don't know whether to sit, stand, jump around, be still, raise your arms, or just fall flat on your face!! You're so in love with god that you don't know really what to do. For me, that's how the song From the Inside Out is! I don't know what it is, but i love it!!
One thing that i find with music is that it can sound really amazing, But the lyrics are lacking. With that song though, it doesn't.

A thousand times i've failed, still your mercy remains. And should i stumble again, I'm caught in your grace. Your will above all else, still my purpose remains the art of loosing myself in bringing you praise. Everlasting your light will shine when all else fades. Never ending your glory goes beyond all fame. And the cry of my heart is to bring you praise. From the inside out Lord my soul cries out. My heart and my soul, i give you control. Consume me from the inside out Lord. Let justice and praise become my embrace, To love you from the inside out.

I think that every person needs something that speaks such truth into their life that they can't even find a loop-hole [for lack of a better word]. This world needs more Christians who are willing to desire such an intimacy with God. More christians who are willing to loose themself in praising God with a purity that surpasses all sin and doubt.
I had no idea what i was gonna blog about, and this is what came from typing out what was on my heart. So take that cookie and eat it!! :D
