Good afternoon precious blog readers! Praying that you are doing well on this the last day of January, 2023. On Sunday at church we sang an awesome song. Don't Be Afraid. As we were singing it, I thought, "Wow, this could be our theme song right now with all that we have going on in our family. The words just completely felt like this song was meant just for us.
Don't Be Afraid lyrics:
1. When deep water curls around you and fear replaces faith.
When the floods would seem to overwhelm God's promises of grace .
When the fires seem overtaking and all seems torn and tossed.
Trust His Word. O truly listen, hear Him say, "All is NOT lost."
Chorus:
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I have redeemed you, you are mine; Don't be afraid.
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. You are a precious child to Me; DON'T BE AFRAID!
2. I am with you through the water.
I am with you through the flood.
They will NEVER overwhelm you.
I have bought you with my blood.
Even though you walk through fire.
I'LL GO WITH YOU ALL THE WAY!
I'M YOUR SAVIOR, TRULY LISTEN, HEAR ME SAY, THESE WORDS I SAY:
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I have redeemed you, you are mine; Don't be afraid.
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. You are a precious child to Me; DON'T BE AFRAID!
I especially LOVE this second verse. God is truly with us through the water, and with us through the flood. He promises they will NEVER overwhelm us because He has bought us with His blood. Even though we walk through fire, he is with us all the way. You see we are NOT promised that there won't be fire or floods, but God will NEVER leave us nor forsake us! For this promise, I am so very thankful!
