There’s no space that His love can’t reach
There’s no place where we can’t’ find peace
There’s no end to amazing grace
Take me in with Your arms spread wide
Take me in like an orphan child
Never let go
Never leave my side
I am
Holding on to You
I am
Holding on to You
In the middle of the storm
I am holding on
I am
Love like this
Oh my God to find
I am overwhelmed
With a joy divine
Love like this sets our hearts on fire
This is my resurrection song
This is my hallelujah come
This is why it’s to You I run
There’s no space that His love can’t reach
There’s no place where we can’t find peace
There’s no end to amazing grace

Have you ever felt you would never be at peace? Have you ever felt like an orphan, all alone in this world? Yep, me too. More times than I would like to count.
I can be worse than a dog with a bone. Replaying events and conversations in my head… worrying and fretting. I am unable to still my mind. Peace is elusive. These verses reassure me:
Psalm 29:11(HCSB)
The Lord gives His people strength; the Lord blesses His people with peace.
Psalm 35:27 (NLT)
Great is the Lord, who delights in blessing his servant with peace!
John 14:27 (NLT)
I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give.
John 16:33 (NIV)
I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace.
In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.
And that is all the reassurance I need. There is no end to God’s amazing grace.
I posted this song on my FaceBook timeline last week. It resonates with me. As this song plays in my head I am reminded that there is no place, there is no space His love cannot reach.
Psalm 86:13(AMP) reaffirms this:
For great is Your mercy and loving-kindness toward me; and You have delivered me
from the depths of Sheol [from the exceeding depths of affliction].
If He can deliver me from my afflictions—from the very depths of Hell—His love can reach whatever mucky pit I am in. The only place you and I can find love like this is wrapped in God’s arms. His arms are always open wide just waiting for us to run to Him. I am overwhelmed with joy.
So I run to Him — daily. When things are good AND when things aren’t so good. I hold on to Him tightly, especially during the storms. He never lets go. He never leaves my side.
This is my resurrection song
This is my hallelujah come
This is why it’s to You I run
I am holding on to Him. What are you holding onto?
Thank you for this song and your words today, Cynda. There’s not a one of us who doesn’t go through storms in our lives, but when we hold onto Jesus, our Solid Rock, we will come through those storms. There may not be peace on the outside, but His peace can still be in our hearts.
I’m holding onto Jesus!
Thanks Clella. I love that even tho the storms rage around us, He keeps us calm & at peace
Holding on to Jesus is the only lifeline that is strong enough to hold us. He hold us with his right hand and never lets go. As much as our loved ones love us and attempt to lift us up, the weight is too much but Jesus is our everlasting hope of survival in a world filled with the weight of sin, trouble, pain, suffering, fear and more. Holding tight today and loving Him.
That is so true Sharon. Too often we place a burden on our loved ones that they are incapable of bearing. Only Jesus can lift that burden from our shoulders when we surrender it to Him. Glad you are holding on tight
Amen, Cynda, Clella, and Sharon! I love this song. It’s one of my favorites to sing along to!!!
Thanks!
