Never Once

You know what y'all?  I don't really have a ton to say right now.  I can't think of a catchy title or profound thought, but because I have not posted in a while I wanted to give you something.

Sometimes, we get stuck in one place, and we find it hard to look back on all that God has done for us.  It is so easy to lose sight of God's promise that He will be with us.  We are not on this journey alone.  He is constantly giving grace and in Him we will overcome the world.  I know that, at least for me, it is easier to know overall that He is with me, but to forget that even in the "small" things or the little decisions He is just as present.  We have Him to trust in, why would we think that we need something else?

I'm not a contemporary music person, but I heard two of my friends sing this song and it was a good reminder for me.  Never once have we ever walked alone.

Never Once

Standing on this mountaintop 

Looking just how far we've come 

Knowing that for every step 

You were with us 

Kneeling on this battle ground 

Seeing just how much You've done 

Knowing every victory 

Is Your power in us 

Scars and struggles on the way 

But with joy our hearts can say 

Yes, our hearts can say 

Never once did we ever walk alone 

Never once did You leave us on our own 

You are faithful, God, You are faithful 

Carried by Your constant grace

Held within Your perfect peace

Never once, no, we never walk alone 

Every step we are breathing in Your grace 

Evermore we'll be breathing out Your praise 

You are faithful, God, You are faithful 

You are faithful, God, You are faithful

Matt Redman

*If your music preferences are much like mine then you might not like the style of the song much. It is contemporary and thus had quite a bit of repetition, so I took some out.*
