A Necessary Truth

Posted on 20:55 by Unknown
In the midst of the confusion, anger, sadness, questioning, and downright chaos that comes with events like those which took place today, I can't help but draw near to my God.

Rather than listen to Justin Timberlake or whatever random playlist that is generally blasting through my speakers, I wanted to be centered on Truth.  I turned off the music that was playing so I could pray and gain a little perspective.  Then, Timberlake took the back-burner to some Jesus tunes.

The first song that come on, through the shuffle option, was "You Are God" by Charlie Hall. Tears immediately started to flow and I couldn't help but put this song on repeat. It was a necessary truth. It is a necessary truth.


"You're closer than our troubles, more present than any danger... You are God."

In times like these, I have no other choice but than to remember that God is closer than our troubles and more present than any danger. He is God... And if He is for us, what what can stand against us? I hope and pray that we can all find a sense of peace in the midst of the present chaos, and that we may know and believe the truth that is so eloquently shared in Charlie's song.
