Times and times again, I felt lost, disappointed, hurt and all the negative emotions that you can think of. And times and times again, I keep reminding myself that the Lord will always be by my side and watch over me. Everything has been taken care of, that is the purpose the Lord died on the cross and the reason that he rose from the dead. So I thought i'd share this song - Be not afraid.

Yup, we shouldn't feel afraid when faced with challenges in our daily life, because we have Him.

You shall cross the barren desert,
but you shall not die of thirst.
You shall wander far in safety,
though you do not know the way.

You shall speak your words in foreign lands,
and all will understand,
You shall see the face of God and live.

Be not afraid,
I go before you always,
Come follow Me,
and I shall give you rest.

If you pass through raging waters
in the sea, you shall not drown.
If you walk amidst the burning flames,
you shall not be harmed.

If you stand before the pow’r of hell
and death is at your side,
know that I am with you, through it all

Be not afraid,
I go before you always,
Come follow Me,
and I shall give you rest.

Blessed are your poor,
for the Kingdom shall be theirs.
Blest are you that weep and mourn,
for one day you shall laugh.

And if wicked men insult and hate you, all because of Me,
blessed, blessed are you!

Be not afraid,
I go before you always,
Come follow Me,
and I shall give you rest.

Trust in Him and He'll show you the way
