Isaiah 43

My high school had this thing called Bible club and as nerdy as it sounds, it was amazing. It consisted of students thirsty for the Lord and desiring to worship Him in a close knit setting. We sang songs and encouraged one another with personal stories or testimonies as well as sought prayer when we simply did not know what to do. It was a mess at times but ultimately strived for one important goal: deep worship and fellowship. One song in particular brought me to tears every time I heard it. It comes from the scriptures of Isaiah 43 and reminds me of Gods unbelievable power and comfort throughout the storms of our lives. I easily get caught up in my own worries and wonder what in the world I am doing sometimes but the fact is... no matter where I run to I never leave His hands. 

I found a video of the song that has the lyrics as well as the same tune that we sang in Bible club! Of course, watching it does not compare to singing it with close friends in my Bible teacher's cozy living room, but I am still overwhelmed with emotion as I hear those words, "Do not fear: for I have redeemed you. I have called you by name, you are MINE."
