You Will Always Be

I am really bad to purchase albums for one reason or another and give them a listen to and then forget about them. It's until days like today when I let my music play on shuffle that I hear something that makes me stop and wonder who is this and why have I never listened to it before.

"Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall
But You go on and on
Hard times come but You remain
The fortress through the storm

You will always be
Never failing King
Just and faithful, always able
You will always be

Years will come and days will go
But You will never fade
Things on earth will let me down
But You will never fail

My eyes may look away from You
But You will never leave
Times I've turned and run from You
Your love has stayed by me"
Kristian Stanfill


There are so many things in my life that are changing right now. Today marks the beginning of the last week of my time on staff at The Gallery Church. The Ramey family announced yesterday that they will be leaving New York to head back Northwest for the health of their family. I'm looking to find a job in the city. My first time really writing a resume and interviewing in the corporate world. Changes everywhere that I turn. But one thing remains the same, my God.

What a relief! I have been trying my best to cling to my sweet Jesus, as I affectionately like to call Him, with all of me. There is too much going on right now for me to do anything but cling to Him.

I sat here in the office starting to feel my shoulders touch my ears as I worried about not finding a job and having to leave New York before it was time to. And what if I wear the wrong thing to the interview that I am never going to get. And how will I say goodbye to all the people that I love and this city that has become my home. All my worries were and are pridefully wrapped up in me.

I am so thankful for the reminder that "You will always be". I will not let fear and worry win.
