Once again, our church family is experiencing the immense consequences and pain of sin; but our saving grace is, and has always been, our strong faith in a strong God.  The words of the song "Everything Falls" by the Christian band Fee has reminded me this week that we can confidently place our hurts in God's capable hands.  Here are the lyrics to that song, and I hope they bless you today:

You said you'd never leave or forsake me

When you said, this life is gonna shake me

And you said this world is gonna trouble my soul - This I know

When everything falls apart your arms hold me together

When everything falls apart you're the only hope for this heart

When everything falls apart and my strength is gone

I find you mighty and strong, you keep holding on

You keep holding on

When I see the darkness all around me

When I see the tragedy that has found me

I still believe your faithful arms will never let me go

And still I know

When everything falls apart your arms hold me together

When everything falls apart you're the only hope for this heart

When everything falls apart and my strength is gone

I find you mighty and strong, you keep holding on

You keep holding on

Sorrow will last for the night

But hope is rising with the sun, rising with the sun

There will be storms in this life

But I know You will overcome, you have overcome

When everything falls apart your arms hold me together

When everything falls apart you're the only hope for this heart

When everything falls apart and my strength is gone

I find you mighty and strong, you keep holding on

You keep holding on
