Healing is in Your Hands

If you haven't heard the new passion CD yet, I would highly recommend it.
Passion: Awakening [Audio CD]

I have always been a huge fan of Christy Nockels, and once again her new song has quickly become the song that I play on repeat throughout my day. The song is called "Healing is in Your Hands". Reading the words is nothing like hearing the song, but for the sake of reference here they are.
Verse 1
No mountain
No valley
No gain or loss we know
Could keep us from Your love

Verse 2
No sickness
No secret
No chain is strong enough
To keep us from Your love
To keep us from Your love

Chorus
How high
How wide
No matter where I am Healing is in Your hands
How deep
How strong
Now by Your grace I stand Healing is in Your hands

Verse 3
Our present
Our future
Our past is in Your hands
We're covered by Your blood
We're covered by Your blood

Bridge
In all things we know that
We are more than conquerors
You keep us by Your love

I am so struck by this song and the many reminders of the God that we serve. How amazing that we serve a God that loves us so deeply and that we can never be separated from His love. No trajedy, no powers of men, nothing can take us from His love. In all things we are covered by His blood, and by His blood we have life.
My favorite part of the song is at the end when she sings "In all things, we know that we are more than conquerors, you keep us by Your love." Wow! I have so many times in my life that I can see I have been able to be a conqueror because of Christ keeping my by His love. There are also the times like right now that my heart is burdened for dear friends and family that have great prayer requests. Also, camp officially started yesterday, and my heart can easily feel overwhelmed and burden. But how great is it to know, we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS! So I hope wherever your heart is today you can be encouraged, knowing that we serve a great God, we are covered by His blood, and that in Him we can have victory and hope over this life and its trials.

  1. Hi Rachel-
    I just saw the shirt you made for Braner's and was wondering if it is too late to order some? We are adopting from Rwanda and would love to have those wonderful shirts to wear. Thanks so much!
