You Are God Alone

This has been one of my favorite songs for the last few months. And each time I hear it, I am brought to tears. Maybe it's because I used this song for a slideshow for the Foster Home when I was speaking at Church's this past spring. The lyrics are so very powerful. In the middle of tragedy or confusion, I so often try to rely on human hands, on myself, rather than on Him. When things go wrong and we don't understand? He is STILL God and He is STILL on the throne. 

"You Are God Alone" - Phillips, Craig, and Dean

You are not a god
Created by human hands
You are not a god
Dependent on any mortal man
You are not a god
In need of anything we can give
By Your plan, that's just the way it is

You are God alone
From before time began
You were on Your throne
Your are God alone
And right now
In the good times and bad
You are on Your throne
You are God alone

You're the only God
Whose power none can contend
You're the only God
Whose name and praise will never end
You're the only God
Who's worthy of everything we can give
You are God
And that's just the way it is

Unchangeable
Unshakable
Unstoppable
That's what You are

No Words

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they WILL be comforted."

Matthew 5:4

Due to the tragic news I received this morning regarding the sudden death of a dear friend's Dad, I am reminded how very precious life is. 

We can not take even one day for granted.

Praying for comfort and peace for  the whole family.

May God enfold them in His everlasting arms as they mourn the loss of their husband, father, soon-to-be grandfather, and friend. 

No words to describe the pain they must be going through.
