    Lyrics:
    I will build a boat in the sand
    Where they say it never rains
    I will stand up in faith
    I’ll do anything it takes
    With Your wind in my sails
    Your love never fails or fades
    I’ll build a boat in the desert place
    And when the flood
    And the water starts to rise
    Yeah I’ll ride the storm
    Cuz I got you by my side
    With your wind in my sails
    Your love never fails or fades
    I’ll build a boat so let it rain
    I’ve been wandering through the desert
    Ain’t seen a cloud in forever
    Over me, but I believe
    The rain is coming
    I've been hanging on to high hopes
    Cuz you’re the one who’s making dry bones
    Come to life
    You’re the light
    I put my trust in
    Every word you say’s gonna come true
    You will lead me to
    the promised land
    Everything you said’s gonna happen
    Even though I haven’t seen it yet
    You’re the map, you’re my compass
    You help me navigate the current
    Under me, take the lead
    I surrender

    Gotta be honest... I'm not that religious but this will always be stuck in my head.
    Started a driving job last year for a small company. My boss is very religious and he gave me a Bible and bookmarked John for me. A few weeks later I started listening to Christian music...

      I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease in 2019, after a serious fall, resulting in 5 fractures and a concussion. My grandchildren prayed for me every single day and last year, my neuro test score actually improved. The Nueurologist said that has never happened before because Parkinson is a deteriorating disease and never improves. I told him, "This shows you what God can do." Thankfully, I remain stable, with no deterioration. I was a nurse and had to retire a few months early for fear of making a medical error and possibly hurting a patient. I do lots of word, matching and woodblock puzzles every day, which helps to preserve your brain cells by keeping them active. I also walk several times a day, take my meds (Carbidopa/Levadopa and Ropinarole) and try to drink lots of water. Stress causes my tremors to be worse, so I avoid being around negative people and loud, noisy places. I will pray for you and hope this gives you some encouragement. God can do anything, all you have to do is ask and then have faith. May God richly bless you and heal you.

      Actually the song is about Noah building the ark to save those who got on before the door was shut and flood came...only he and 7 family members survived.
      In the end times we are told it will be like the days of Noah, but this time Jesus will be the collective ark towards salvation.

    Got to meet him at resound festival. Was able to share my story with him. How God used his music and his ministry to speak to me in one of my darkest times. He was on a very strict schedule and was not taking pictures with anyone but there were a few fans that he told his manager to not let leave because he wanted to pray over them. Unfortunately I didn't get the msg before it was to late and I had already left. My sister had called to see if I was close enough ti come back. I wasn't but that's OK. He made him self late for his next stop because he felt called to pray with and over a few of the people he met that night. Thank you Colten for allowing God to work through you. May he bless you and your family in the next adventures you are on.

I feel like the world is crushing on me but I fight with every once of strength as I am certain we are never alone GOD is always with us.

    Thank you brother; through this song you're enhancing our FAITH to GOD. Like the FAITH of Noah when God asked him to build an ark for the saving of his household; animals ( despite the fact that they were in the desert.) Then....the flood arrived and destroyed the wicked and unbelievers. ( Genesis 7:1-16 )
    More blessings to you my brother.

    I've been wandering through the desert
    Ain't seen a cloud in forever
    Over me, but I believe
    The rain is coming
    I've been hangin on to high hopes
    'Cause, you're the one who's making dry bones
    Come to life, You're the light
    I put my trust in
    Every word you say's gonna come true
    You will lead me to the promised land
    Everything you said's gonna happen
    Even through I haven't seen it yet
    I will build a boat in the sand
    Where they say it never rains
    I will stand up in faith
    I'll do anything it takes
    With your wind in my sails
    Your love never fails or fades

    Your love never fails or fades
    I'll build a boat in the desert place
    And when the flood and the water starts to rise, yeah
    I'll ride the storm 'cause I got you by my side
    With your wind in my sails
    Your love never fails or fades
    I'll build a boat so let it rain
    You're the map, you're my compass
    You help me navigate the current
    Under me take the lead
    I surrender
    Every word you say's gonna come true
    You will lead me to the promised land
    Everything you said's gonna happen
    Even through I haven't seen it yet

    This reminds me of the Peru medical mission where we also operated a hospital boat to provide free care to patients along the Amazon River. Gosh setting up the hospital boat was hard work, and carrying all the equipment, that was the only part I didn't enjoy as much lol. We worked morning to night. I worked alongside the attendings and surgeons (we travelled together from the US) that summer break and gained a lot experience, including performing endoscopies and colonoscopies and interpreting x-rays and ultrasounds.
