Hi Guys!
Was watching this movie just today, it's called The Guardian. It's about the United States Coast Guard and what they go through physically, mentally and emotionally.

What cut me the most about the show was the song at the credits. Just writing about it now I can feel like crying. Because it's so close to what we go through as christians. =)

There's one part in the show where 2 of the guys from the coast guard training school went to a bar that's meant for only Navy people. And they were talking about how the Navy only appreciates the coast guards when they're in need of rescue. And during other times, they're just not needed.

I guess that's how we feel sometimes as disciples, unsung heros. =) I know I feel that way.

The song is really meaningful and it totally depicts the life that we need to have as disciples.

It's called Never Let Go. In the movie, the main character Senior Chief Randall, has it as his moto to never let go. No matter how much he's hurting he will never let go of you. =) At the end of the movie they called him the Fisher of Man..... (go watch it, won't spoil it for you.)

Here's the song lyrics

Never Let Go - Brian Adams

Can you lay your life down, so a stranger can live?
Can you take what you need, but take less than you give?
Could you close every day, without the glory and fame?
Could you hold your head high, when no one knows your name?
That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say.

We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, cause you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Can you lose everything, you ever had planned?
Can you sit down again, and play another hand?
Could you risk everything, for the chance of being alone?
Under pressure find the grace, or would you come undone?
That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say?

We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, cause you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Never let go, Never let go, Never let go

Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

We say goodbye, but never let go.
We live, we die, 'but you can't save every soul.
Gotta take every chance to, show that you're the kinda man who;
Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Will never look back, never look down,
and never let go.

Never let go, Never let go, Never let go
