By Your Side - Tenth Avenue North
I first heard this song last week on my way to church. The first few lines just grabbed my heart and echoed my thoughts and the things God has been whispering to me for many years.
Whole30 ~ I did it!!
So this past month I embarked upon an adventure: I have been been doing a body-reset program called "Whole30". The program is very intense, with straight-forward guidelines: basically you have NO sugar, No grains, and No dairy, for 30 days.
When I first realized what it was about and what you were suppose to do, I was like "NO WAY! I could not do that!" Yet, always the cheerleader for health and holistic living, I proclaimed to my friend who was saying she was going to do it, "I will do it with you to support you!"
September 30, after 10PM I ate my last 3 Tim-Tam cookies, fully dunked in a creamy cup of tea, saying a sweet farewell to sugar, grains and dairy-laden drinks for my next 30 days!!
And what an adventure it has been....
...The first 48 hours I experienced flu-like aches, crankiness, headaches, as my body screamed it's revolt to being cut off from all it's lovely indulgences and addictions. The physical side was not as hard as the psyc…

Why are you trying to earn grace
Why are you crying
Let me lift up your face
Just don't turn away
Why are you looking for love
Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell me where will you run
To where will you run
And I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you
Look at these hands and my side
They swallowed the grave on that night
When I drank the world's sin
So I could carry you in
And give you life
I want to give you life
(Chorus 2x)
Cause I, I love you
I want you to know
That I, I love you
I'll never let you go
EXCELLENT!! :) thanks!
