You Are Loved (Don't Give Up)

Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
When your heart's heavy I
I will lift it for you

Don't give up
Because you want to be heard
If silence keeps you I
I will break it for you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you

Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up

Because you are loved

Don't give up
It's just the hurt that you hide
When you're lost inside I
I'll be there to find you

Don't give up
Because you want to burn bright
If darkness blinds you I
I will shine to guide you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you

Everybody needs to be loved
Don't give up

Because...you are loved

Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world

Don't give up
Everyone needs to be loved

You are loved

The Lord has been showing me how much I really need Him these last few weeks. This is the song that is a constant reminder, when I feel like the whole world seems against me that there is still some one who loves me for who i am. The Lord has been very merciful and gracious to me over these past few years and for that i am thankful. I hope this song touches your heart as it did mine.

Favorite Song

The Prayer

I pray you’ll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don’t know

Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we’ll be safe

I pray we’ll find your light

And hold it in our hearts
When stars go out each night

Let this be our prayer
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace

Give us faith so we’ll safe
We ask that life be kind
And watch us from above
We hope each soul will find
Another soul to love

Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Just like every child

Needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we’ll be safe

I'm not sure why, but this song has been a favorite of mine for a few years now.
Josh Groban and Charlotte Church sang it together a few years ago and I've liked it ever since.
Some would call this song a romantic song but for me this song is more a encouraging song rather than a romantic song.
Read this song again and anywhere you see the word you capitalize the "Y" and now the song means something different, the You now refers to God and for me this song tells of how God is watching us and wants us to rest in Him.

Last Visitation for Bus 1

This week is the last week for me on Bus 1. Though I am sad to be leaving, I know God has a reason for it. I started working on Bus 1 after being asked in the beginning of last semester to help on the Bus for 1 week. I fell in love with the kids and haven't been able to leave. The Lord has taught me many thinks in the way of my bus kids. I am constantly reminded how blessed I am to have grown up in a Christian Home and able to go to church every Sunday. The Lord has taught me to have a lot of patience. I am not a patient person by nature so this semester while working with the kids that Lord has shown me how to be patient and why to be patient. I am going to miss seeing them on the Bus every week,but at least I can see them in Church. Have a Happy Valentine's Day.
