Oh No, You Never Let Go

For some reason, I have on several occasions gotten emotional during service.  I think it’s just a time when whatever message or song really just hits my heart/mind.  A few weeks ago, there was a lot of talk about burdens, and the message, the songs, and the prayers just hit me hard as my mind just filled with every single burden I had and I just started tearing.  I don’t think anyone saw me though cause I was trying to hold it in.  Well, maybe F did cause she was next to me.  Who knows…

Then today as we sang, “Oh No, You Never Let Go” by Matt Redman, as soon as the lines hit:

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm

Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

It was like bam, I felt like God was embracing me, holding me so tightly, reminding me that He is always there, “through the calm and through the storms”.  And started getting emotional again.  It was a really good reminder and experience that He never lets go in all circumstances.  Every high and low, calm and storms, He is there.  And I feel like at this point in my life, recently, even the things that shouldn’t be stressful for me, things that are supposed to be good, things that I enjoy, have created a lot of underlying stress for me.  And I was thinking that wow, nothing in life is really going well right now, because even the seemingly good things, aren’t deep down.  But God is reminding me that He is with me through it all and that He cares and hears me.

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

You keep on loving
And You never let go

Thanks for loving me and my brokenness.

One thought on “Oh No, You Never Let Go

  1. Wow, no, I didn’t know! But actually, I got really emotional in that service too, as soon as they started the worship music. I can’t really remember the last time I felt the tightness in my chest and the overall emotional movement, like I wanted to breakdown and cry from I can’t even exactly find the right word for, conviction perhaps? it was intense though. It’s sort of why I wanted to try going to the service in the mornings occasionally, before our normal service… because there’s something beautiful and very convicting there…
