Always been there

╭✿╯When I look back on all my posts over the many years (12 years to be exact) I reflect on how God has always been there.

It reminds me of the song "God has always stood by my side." My mum bought me a cassette with this song on it, by the Truthettes, on her travels to Israel & Jerusalem. My 2 favourite songs on this cassette were this one and "Peanut butter
 & jelly". Tearful memories... one of those pensive moods today. Sang this song with my mum and sis during an alter call & testimony time @ a church service in Matat, where dad was ministering that morning. 

Another memory...I remember my dad sitting on the couch in the lounge...in his favourite spot, and he'd sing quietly in the background, as the song played. He and mum would harmonise as the song played, while he sang with his eyes closed, and nodded at the powerful truths contained in the song. Mum would stop whatever she was doing to join him in song and worship and my sister and I would automatically follow suit. Sometimes dad would get up to fetch his harmonica and begin to play alongside the other instruments in the background. There would a peace, second to none, that would flood that room and we knew that God's presence was RIGHT THERE in our midst, "for where two or three are gathered together in His name, there He is in the midst of them" to bless. I don't open up too much on Fb, but just felt led to share this morning. It must be my pensive mood today and the memories this song has triggered...

This memory takes me waaay back to my primary school years. The mind is phenomenal. It can extract memories almost spontaneously & unaltered when triggered.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6DrOORLloo
