No Retreat, No Surrender!
What Challenges Really Are!
Count Your Blessings | Sebastian Demrey & Jimmy Lahaie
I remember singing this hymn as a teenager with very few ‘cares’ and perhaps not really relating to the lyrics as I do now. With so many issues of life staring at us in the face, it is very easy to complain, worry and become hopeless. However, we must remind ourselves constantly that we do have many things to be thankful for. What you have in abundance is someone’s miracle!
Count Your Blessings!
When you are tempted to groan in complaint,
Count your blessings.
When you think you should be farther in life than you are,
Count your blessings.
When it seems what you have is small compared to your neighbour’s,
Count your blessings.
When life’s expectations are not met by your standards,
Count your blessings.
When you are surmounted with the cares of this world,
Count your blessings.
When what tomorrow holds fill your mind with worry,
Count your blessings.
Yes, if you can name your blessings,
Go ahead and name them.
Some people don’t have what you have,
What you have is their own answer to prayers,
That’s why you have to count your blessings.

Your Name | Paul Baloche
There is one name that is higher than any other name. Higher than the name of any sickness, problem, addiction or situation. That name is Jesus! At that name, the knees of any issue bow. This song is one I love and it speaks to me every single time I listen to it.
