"I Won't Let Go" was written from a heart that was experiencing a lot of emotions brought on by the betrayal of someone I considered a mentor and friend. Because of the upheaval his actions caused in my life and ministry, my faith felt a little bit shaken. But after time in prayer and meditating on God's Word, I was reminded that I must always depend on God's unshakeable faithfulness and love -- not on the actions of others. Man will often let us down, but God's love endures forever. That's why I can say, "I Won't Let Go" of my faith in Him!

I Won't Let Go
When You Found Me
It's true! Jesus can save the worst of sinners -- I know, because I'm living proof! I was wasting away in my sin, and felt worthless, useless, ugly inside and out,, and so lost and alone. But then Jesus came along and found me at a very critical time. You see, I was ready to end it all because I honestly felt there was no hope left for me. But a Voice whispered to my heart and said, "Karen, you've tried everything to find love -- now won't you come to Me?" That night, I surrendered my life to Him, and I have never regretted it for a moment. He has given me beauty in place of ashes, and a joy that gives me strength!

There are times in every life when circumstances seem overwhelming. What do we do? Where can we go to overcome the darkness and find the strength to go on? Where can we find the answers to the questions that seem unanswerable? Sometimes there are no answers to be found, and that's when we have to rely on our faith in God. We must remember that our help can be found only in the Lord, for He alone has all the answers. In Psalm 121:1-2, the Psalmist writes: "I lift up my eyes to the hills -- where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth."
