Held

If your speakers are on, you'd be hearing one of my favorite songs entitled HELD by Natalie Grant. The first time I heard this song, I couldn't help but cry.

It's a song composed by a Mom who lost her two month old baby because of sickness. The most painful part was that the baby died in her arms. She asked God why such thing happened and told God that it's unfair....

But in her loss, she experienced God holding her....Just listen to the song, read the lyrics and may you realize what God does in times of our loss, in times of our difficulties, in times of our troubles...

HELD

by Natalie Grant

Two months is too little.

They let him go.

They had no sudden healing.

To think that providence would

Take a child from his mother while she prays

Is appalling.

Who told us we’d be rescued?

What has changed and why should we be saved from nightmares?

We’re asking why this happens

To us who have died to live?

It’s unfair.

Chorus:

This is what it means to be held.

How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life

And you survive.

This is what it is to be loved.

And to know that the promise was

When everything fell we’d be held.

This hand is bitterness.

We want to taste it, let the hatred numb our sorrow.

The wise hands opens slowly to lillys of the valley and tomorrow.

(Chorus)

This is what it means to be held.

How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life

And you survive.

This is what it is to be loved.

And to know that the promise was

When everything fell we’d be held.

Bridge:

If hope is born of suffering.

If this is only the beginning.

Can we not wait for one hour watching for our Savior?

(Chorus)

This is what it means to be held.

How it feels when the sacred is torn from your life

And you survive.

This is what it is to be loved.

And to know that the promise was

When everything fell we’d be held.

God's promise to us is HE will always be there. He will never leave us nor forsake us. Just allow him to hold you and He will never let you go. That is how God love us so much that He even gave His only Son for us. That to those who believe, He will give eternal life.

Have a Blessed Weekend Everyone!
