Sometimes, life seems tough. You just don’t want to go on. Everyone is counting on you. You are the strong one. But what about you? When do you get a chance to be the weak one? When do you allow someone else to take control? When do you rest?
When you realize you don’t have to be the strong one all the time. God is there for you. You’re not alone. Yah has you in the palm of His hands. Let Him help you. He wants you to rest in Him, trust in Him and realize He knows what He is doing. Lean on Him and just be held because your world isn’t falling apart. It’s falling into place.
Really listen to this song. Let the words sink in. God wants to be the one you run to, to hold you up, to protect you and to give you rest.

Just Be Held Lyrics
Hold it all together
Everybody needs you strong
But life hits you out of nowhere
And barely leaves you holding on
And when you’re tired of fighting
Chained by your control
There’s freedom in surrender
Lay it down and let it go
So when you’re on your knees and answers seem so far away
You’re not alone, stop holding on and just be held
Your world’s not falling apart, it’s falling into place
I’m on the throne, stop holding on and just be held
Just be held, just be held
If your eyes are on the storm
You’ll wonder if I love you still
But if your eyes are on the cross
You’ll know I always have and I always will
And not a tear is wasted
In time, you’ll understand
I’m painting beauty with the ashes
Your life is in My hands
Lift your hands, lift your eyes
In the storm is where you’ll find Me
And where you are, I’ll hold your heart
I’ll hold your heart
Come to Me, find your rest
In the arms of the God who won’t let go
