Last month, I chaperoned our two teenaged children, Journey and Harvest, to their first youth conference hosted by Youth Specialties. The theme of the conference couldn’t be more appropriate and timely — Fearless!
God is a safe place to hide,
ready to help when we need Him.
We stand fearless at the cliff-edge of doom,
courageous in seastorm and earthquake,
before the rush and roar of oceans,
the tremors that shift mountains.
Psalm 46:1-2 The Message
For All Seasons Band led the time of worship at the youth conference. Journey and I both became fans of this band early this year and to see and hear them lead worship up close was such a treat! This line on one of their songs, Bigger Than, captures the truth that has anchored my heart steadily as I navigated my way through a fearsome diagnosis the past three months.
You are the God who always sees us,
even in bare and desperate seasons;
no matter what the circumstance,
You are the Rock on which I stand.
even in bare and desperate seasons;
no matter what the circumstance,
You are the Rock on which I stand.
