2008 Just In Time

JUST IN TIME

Written by Mark Fielding Darden in 2008

Just in time? For who?

Some things come around at just the right time, and some things leave just at the right time. The trouble is trying to figure out whether the good times are coming or going... There is a lyric in this song that says we won't get our 'train ticket' until just before the 'train' leaves town. You were right, Corrie Ten Boom.

So, God makes us wait until he’s ready, not until we think we’re ready.

Other notes:
I would have the song just right and Chris would come up with another guitar idea. I'd try to nix it until he finally asked me one day... "Have I ever added a guitar part that you did not use?"

That was pretty profound. I let him do just about anything he wanted after that, especially since he was driving an hour both ways once or twice a week for a year or more for free, just because he loved me and my tunes.

We would play, get high, and laugh, laugh, laugh, even during the serious songs. Sometimes cry too. We were both going through divorces at the time. We were getting healed. We didn't have many options, but we had music, and we both believed that God would heal us.

He did.
