For Him!
I wonder what today will bring
No matter! I know my heart will sing,
Because I know Jesus, King
And He's my all and everything!
He lifts me up and loves me dear
His care for me is oh so clear,
There is nothing for me to fear
He is always very near!
Now I move on through the day
Knowing He will pave the way,
Where I go and what I say
Is for Him, for this I pray!
The Lord is my strength and my
shield; my heart trusts in Him, and
I am helped. My heart leaps for joy
and I will give thanks to Him in song.
Psalm 28:7
SomeOne!
SomeOne cares
SomeOne died,
His love was great
For you and I,
Nothing stopped Him
Nothing could,
He knew He'd die
God said He would.
He could save us
He wanted to,
No gift is greater
For me and you.
His heavy load
Went to the cross,
Our sins on Him
Or we'd be lost.
No greater love
Or sacrifice,
Than from this One -
From Jesus Christ!
Once made perfect, Jesus
became the source of
eternal salvation for all
who obey Him. Hebrews 5:9
God, our Savior saved us, not
because of righteous things we
had done, but because of His
mercy. He saved us through
the washing of rebirth and
renewal by the Holy Spirit.
Titus 3:5
His Presence!
I see my Lord all around
When I rise or lay me down,
I know He's there by my side
Ever present He is my Guide.
Where can I go that He'll not be
No where at all - He stays with me,
He leads me gently by the hand
Directing me into His plan.
When I'm awake or when I sleep
I trust in Him my soul to keep,
I know He's there, I have no fear
I call His Name, I know He's here.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there Your hand will guide me,
Your right hand will hold me fast.
Psalm 139:9-10
The Lord replied, "My Presence will
go with you, and I will give you rest."
Exodus 33:14
God has said, "Never will I leave you;
never will I forsake you."
Hebrews 13:5
Joy!
Joy is in my heart
'Cause that's where Jesus lives,
The peace and hope I have in Him
Is because it's what He gives...
...But oh, so much more
And I know Him as my Lord
And that is why my heart is full
And what I'm living for!
I know no other reason
For why my heart does sing,
It goes beyond coincidence
It's because of Christ, my King.
You make me glad by Your deeds,
O Lord; I sing for joy at the works
of Your hands Psalm 92:4
Three Hearts!
Two people seeking acceptance and love
Wanting the will of the Father above,
But living their lives away from God's plan
And living in ways accepted by man.
Each coming back to the place they belong
With repentant hearts, each with a new song,
Giving their lives to God and each other
Exploring new life with love to discover.
Looking ahead to God's perfect will
Purpose and plans and dreams to fulfill,
Finding the one whose heart wants the same
To love and obey and praise God's Holy Name.
To make Him the focus and always a part
And give Him His place in both of their hearts.
Sharing their lives, rejoicing and free
Together with God they are now hearts of three.
As summer approaches and the wedding "season"
does, too, wouldn't it be nice for all marrieds to
"renew" their wedding vows? My husband and I
will celebrate our 44th anniversary this year. We
are so thankful that God has made us one in Christ♥
I love him, he loves me - We both love the Lord!
Best of all: He loves us:)
If I Could Pray…
one prayer today
Lord, it would be and I would say:
Please guide my loved ones as You will
Guard their hearts and bless them still;
Make them strong in their faith
And help them see their mistakes;
Give them tender love for all
And for their loved ones most of all;
Don't let the sun go down on them
With hurting hearts that need to mend;
Fill them with the desire that burns
For all of You they can learn;
Then give them peace and joy so great
With excited hearts as they wait;
For all You have in Your great plan
Hold them up and help them stand;
Bring them to that special place
Where joy is seen on each face;
Where Your love is deep within
And thankfulness and blessing win.
I pray this prayer because I know
In Jesus, You will make it so.
Amen.
Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12
God who began a good work in you
will carry it on to completion until
the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:6
God – He Is In Control!
God is in control
And lest we ever doubt it,
He lets us know in His Word
And tells us all about it.
He tells us that "I am"
He is creator over all,
He made a way because He can
To save us from our fall.
Man could never save himself
From sin that entered in,
So God sent Christ to die for us
And then He rose again.
He lives in us and goes with us
If we invite Him to,
He loves us so and helps us grow
He's there for me and you.
I heard what sounded like a
great multitude, like the roar of
rushing waters and like loud
peals of thunder, shouting:
For our Lord God Almighty reigns."
Revelation 19:6
His Plan Proceeds!
Whatever place God has you in
Be thankful to Him, please thank Him!
When you prayed and first believed
Your answered prayers were gifts received.
Now doubts abound and fears close in
But don't forget to still trust Him,
See the sunshine, not the rain
When circumstances cause you pain.
His plan proceeds, look to your heart
Yield all to Him for a fresh, new start.
May our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God
our Father, who loved us and by His grace
gave us eternal encouragement and good hope,
encourage your hearts and strengthen you in
every good deed and word. 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17
Those who plan what is good find love and
faithfulness. Proverbs 14:22
The cheerful heart has a continual feast.
Proverbs 15:15
The Word!
The Word of God is sharp
And gets to the heart of the matter,
We're taught the important things
And not just mindless chatter.
The message God conveys
Is one not to dismiss,
It's meant to ground us in His truth
We can depend on this!
Open the Word of God
Read with an open mind,
Check out the truth of Him
And leave deception behind.
All that we should know
Will deeply penetrate,
And sink into our heart
Why would we want to wait?
THE BIBLE - A LOVE LETTER FROM GOD❤
For the Word of God is living
and powerful, and sharper than
any two-edged sword, piercing
even to the division of soul and
spirit, and of joints and marrow,
and is a discerner of the thoughts
and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12
Hope!
What happens to hope
When things all go wrong,
When a heart is bereft
And just can't sing a song?
Can't give every burden
So hard to bear,
To God who's the Father
And the One to most care?
Just pray and ask Jesus
To draw you to Him,
He'll stretch out His arms
And hold you within.
"I know the plans I have for
you," declares the Lord, "plans
to prosper you and not to
harm you, plans to give you
hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11
May the God of hope fill you
with all joy and peace as you
trust in Him, so that you may
overflow with hope by the
power of the Holy Spirit.
Romans 15:13
