You'll Never Be Alone

I wasn't looking for a sign. We were busy getting a life started here and once again I'm reminded that the path we're on is bigger than just us. Let me give you a perfect example. I'm taking you back to this past Pentecost Sunday, May 15th. In traditional Christian circles, it's known as the beginning of the church. I had requested with my work that starting in June, I work a closing shift so that we could start looking for a church home. I was contacted May 14th, Saturday afternoon and told that my request was being honored and effective immediately. We chose a church close to our house. It was a preacher that Mark had met through his work. The church is a Nazarene church and I think we probably all went into the service with our own apprehensions. There was definitely a lot of emotion both expressed and withheld from our family but one of the things that definitely stood out to me was the proclamation of Pentecost Sunday. 

The message was what does this mean and what shall we do? One of the Bible verses the pastor spoke about said I'm sending you. One of the last services I listened to before we actually made the move was part of a series called Dangerous Prayers at Life.Church and in it we prayed to be broken, to ask to be sent where he needs us and that message spoke to me deeply. It scared me but it gave me conviction and furthered my believe that stepping out in faith was what we were meant to do. Now I don't know if this church will become a place we can start setting down roots or not. I do know it was another awakening, a good reminder that we are where we are supposed to be and also that we need to continue moving forward because there are greater things in store.

This post's song lyrics come from Capital Kings, "You'll Never Be Alone"

I'm the street lights that guide you home
I'll be the G.P.S when you've lost your phone
I'll be the song that's rockin' in your headphones
I'll show you the signs
To let you know
You'll never be alone

Hey

Let me start it off by sayin' this

You mean everything to me nothin' I wouldn't risk
Every single second and moment that passes by
I'm thinkin' about you and I really want you to know that

There's something more out there
Somethin' that will hold you very tight when you're scared
'Cause I know when times get tough and it starts to feel rough
It can feel like everythings crashin' down on ya

So when it seems like every road you're on has hit a dead end
There is hope
Let me show

I'm the street lights that guide you home
I'll be the G.P.S when you've lost your phone
I'll be the song that's rockin' in your headphones
I'll show you the signs
To let you know
You'll never be alone
You'll never be alone

Man
Crazy how you got this far
I'd be sittin' just wonderin' where to start
Last week you were sayin' that somethin' just ain't right
Layin' in your bed stayin' up all night

'Cause
This life is harder than it seems
But one thing I've learned is never stop chasin' your dreams
And if it, if it ever get's to hectic for you
Stop for a second and remember one thing.

So when it seems like every road you're on has hit a dead end
There is hope
Let me show

I'm the street lights that guide you home
I'll be the G.P.S when you've lost your phone
I'll be the song that's rockin' in your headphones
I'll show you the signs
To let you know
You'll never be alone
You'll never be alone

Sometimes life is an ocean
We're just trying to flow
We get caught in slow motion
From the undertow

Sometimes the path to choose
Is right in front of you
You just gotta let go

I'm the street lights that guide you home
I'll be the G.P.S when you've lost your phone
I'll be the song that's rockin' in your headphones
I'll show you the signs
To let you know

You'll never be alone
