Thankful

I just stumbled on this song and it takes me back to where i used to be, so now i'm in one of my thankful moments. Love it! I can relate to every single word on this song. Wow! Have you ever looked back to who you used to be or where you used to be? Try it, it'll humble you. I'm listening to this song and i'm thinking, "Man, i've come a long way!" I thank God for his amazing grace on my life. I don't think there's anyone/thing that can ever separate me from God. He's been too faithful. As messed up and undeserving of his love as i was, he totally cleaned me up. I like how people look at me now and go on and on about my happy and easy-going nature. I was not always this way. I know this is a bit personal, but like i always say "Ain't no shame in my game". My testimony is my ministry. The only way i keep myself grounded is by remembering where i used to be. For a long time, i wondered what my purpose in life was. I was totally lost. My life was meaningless. I even questioned why i was born. It seemed liked i was always fighting for my life. But thank God for that day that i walked into RHFAN (my old church). I remember coming out to the altar and just crying my eyes out. I had been through enough; i was ready for God to take control. I was done fighting. I was done being a shadow of myself. All i can say is that I've never been the same since that day. So, i made a promise to God, never to forget how he saved me. He's also given me an assignment to draw the troubled to him. That i will definitely do, by his grace.











  • Lyrics:

  • Through all lord that I have gone through
  • Lord it was you
  • Chorus: Through all lord that I have gone through
  • Lord it was you x2
  • It was You , It was You that now pulling me through
  • It was you, Lord it was You pulling me through
  • when I stumbled, when I cried when it felt like I wanted to die
  • when my friends turned and they walked away
  • you were right here right here to stay
  • It was You It was You pulling me through
  • It was you, Lord it was You pulling me through
  • Yes, when I stumbled, when I cried when it felt like I wanted to die
  • When my friends turned and they walked away
  • You were right here, right here to stay
  • It was you, Lord it was You
  • He'll never walk out on you
  • No never, no never (lead x2 chorus x4)
  • I'm a witness that He'll never, no never x2




  • I'm also thankful for the most supportive and loving family. My uncle and I this past weekend

    1. Ak, pretty new to your blog, and i ended up spending the better part of work hours to go through your blog; and all i could do was smile. Your story is amazing, and you really make Christianity FUN (it sure is tho)......... Really would say "well done in the reading of the bible chapter by chapter, book by book, verse by verse. God knows av so tried it but end up stopping!!!!!!!!!Pray HE helps me tho as i feel it would be really nice to cover the bible in a year!!!!!!! Before i go on blabbing, the video on this post seems to be unavailable again, and the lyrics sound like something i would love. Keep winning, Keep Shinning, and even if i never get to see your face, by HIS grace and mercy, we would see in our Father's House!!!!!!

      1. Wow, i'm short of words. Thank you so much! I am so deeply touched by your kind words. I would have to attribute my success with reading the Bible chapter by chapter partly to the Bible i'm using(NLT Life Application Study Bible)It breaks everything down and uses our day-to-day English. Trust me, prior to getting it, i failed with each attempt to cover the Bible as well till i just gave up. You should try it out :)

        But really, thank you so much for reading. Hopefully i do get to meet you someday, as you seem like a really lovely person. If not, like you said, we'll rock it out together in our father's house!!! Hey! :)

        Oh, that song is titled, "Pulling me through" by Todd Dulaney. I'm sure you'll love it :)

        Thanks so much and take great care!
