So I just had a conversation with Duane and Emma about this song, and I said, but what about the people who DO break??
And they reminded me, that we must to turn our life over to God, we must let him help us, we need to not ‘try to do it all by ourselves’. When we do all the little things every day, pray, meditate, read from our scriptures, serve others, he will let us bend, so that we can grow stronger, but he will not let us break.
Still thinking about this one. I love the lyrics that are bolded below. Enjoy ‘He Said”
So your life feels like it don’t make sense
And you think to yourself, “I’m a good person,
So why do these things keep happening? “
Why you gotta deal with them
You may be knocked down now, but don’t forget
What He said, He said
“I won’t give you more
More than you can take
And I might let you bend
But I won’t let you break
And know, I’ll never, ever let you go”
Don’t you forget what He said
Don’t you forget what He said, He said
Who you are ain’t what you’re going through
So don’t let it get the best of you
‘Cause God knows everything you need
So you ain’t gotta worry
You may be knocked down now, but just believe what He said
He said “I won’t give you more
More than you can take
And I might let you bend
But I won’t let you break
And know I’ll never ever let you go”
Don’t you forget what He said
Don’t fear when you go through the fire
Hang On when it’s down to the wire
Stand tall and remember what He said
“I won’t give you more
More than you can take
And I might let you bend
But I won’t let you break”
“I won’t give you more
More than you can take
And I might let you bend
But I won’t let you break
And know I’ll never ever let you go”
Don’t you forget what he said
He said, what he said
Don’t you forget what he said
What he said
Sometimes it feels like breaking though – hey! So comforting to know that you'll pull through with Him. Thanks for your kind words. They mean a lot.
