You Never Let Go

This has been a difficult few weeks. For those who don't know, my Mom went to be with the Lord a couple of weeks ago. I heard a Pentecotal preacher say: "you never get over losing your Mom." That comment has been with me for over ten years.

Even with all that I have experienced I was reminded and encouraged by a Matt Redman's song entitled "You Never Let Go." The song was released last year, but I want to remind you of these words.

You Never Let Go

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.

And I will fear no evil,
For my God is with me.
And if my God is with me,
Whom then shall I fear? Whom then shall I fear?

O no, You never let go,
Through the calm and through the storm
O no, You never let go,
In every high and every low
O no, You never let go, Lord You never let go of me.


And I can see a light that is coming
for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare.
And there will be an end to these troubles,
But until that day comes,
We´ll live to know You here on the earth.

Yes, I can see a light that is coming
For the heart that holds on,
And there will be an end
To these troubles,
But until that day comes,
Still I will praise You,
Still I will praise You.

Baylor Bears

The Baylor men's basketball team will be in the NCAA tournament for the first time in twenty years. Though I was dissappointed in their play last week in the Big 12 tournament, I will be cheering for the Bears this week.

The Baylor women's basketball team will also be participating in the NCAA Women's tournament. This is the fifth straight year that the women's team has made this tourament. They have been to the tourament seven times under Coach Kim Mulkey.

To my knowledge, which is limited, I believe that this will be the only time in the school's history that the men's and women's basketball teams will be playing in their respective tournaments. Finally, Baylor fans are having something to cheer about. Now if only the teams will make a good showing in the tournament, and end the losing streak for both teams.
