Songs

So I went running tonight after I thought the rain and lightening were over, well it turns out that I was wrong and so I got quite an experience. As I passed the football field I started running through the park and the song "You Never Let Go" by Matt Redman started playing on my iPod and I was inspired by these lyrics to sprint through the park and up the flights of stairs.

1. "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I’m caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won’t turn back
I know You are near"

I thought this part of the song was perfect timing since I was in a valley in the park, as well as there being rain and lightening all around me. Something about it just gave me pure joy as I ran through the park listening to it.

2. "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"

The chorus of the song also was great timing since like the hilly nature of this campus (surprising for Kansas), my emotions have been at highs and lows. While I am extremely excited for this summer and the opportunities, it is also daunting. My first few days were a little rough, but I am reaching the inflexion point in my emotions and I am excited to start synthesizing. Like the beginning of the song says, "And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?..."
