Hold On


Doesn't it sometimes feel like you're barely hanging on through this rocky life?  That you're not quite sure how you can possibly keep going?  

We've all been there.  Sometimes we're overwhelmed by work, relationships, financial obligations, family drama, or classes.  Other days we're up against a crazy combination of those.  Thankfully, we have a Father who loves us more than we can imagine and who will hold onto us through it all. 

"The LORD will keep you from all harm—
   he will watch over your life;
the LORD will watch over your coming and going
   both now and forevermore."
-Psalm 121: 7-8

I can't express this any better than Mark Schultz, so I'll leave it up to him with He Will Carry Me.

If you're wondering if you can keep going right now, I encourage you to hold on.  He will carry you.

HE WILL CARRY ME

I call, You hear me
I’ve lost it all
And it’s more than I can bear
I feel so empty
You’re strong
I’m weary
I’m holdin’ on
But I feel like givin’ in
But still You’re with me

And even though I’m walkin’ through
The valley of the shadow
I will hold tight to the hand of Him
Whose love will comfort me
And when all hope is gone
And I’ve been wounded in the battle
He is all the strength that I will
Ever need
And He will carry me

I know I’m broken
But You alone
Can mend this heart of mine
You’re always with me
(chorus)

And even though I feel so lonely
Like I’ve never been before
You never said it would be easy
But You said you’d see me through
The storm
(chorus)
