Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Is that possible? Can faith fall out of your pocket or get lost between the cushions on your couch?
Or do we choose to give up our faith in our decisions and actions? Either once and for all in a single moment? Or gradually over a period of time and then one day we wake up and feel we lost it somewhere along the way.
Don’t give up. Stand firm.
No weeping no hurt or pain
No suffering
You hold me now
You hold me now
No darkness no sick or lame
No hiding
You hold me now
You hold me now
For you today.

i hear you say “my love is over,
its underneath, it’s inside, it’s in between
the times you doubt me, when you can’t feel
the times that you’ve questioned ‘is this for real?’
the times you’ve broken, the times that you mend
the times you hate me and the times that you bend
well my love is over, it’s underneath
it’s inside, it’s in between,
these times you’re healing
and when your heart breaks
the times that you feel like you’ve fallen from grace
the times you’re hurting
the times that you heal
the times you go hungry and attempted to steal
in times of confusion and chaos and pain
im there in your sorrow under the weight of your shame
im there through your heartache
im there in the storm
my love i will keep you by my power alone
i dont care where you’ve fallen, where you have been
i’ll never forsake you
my love never ends, it never ends…

“What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ”
