Complete Forgiveness

O Dear Lord,
You've led me to the quiet place
Where I can almost see your face
A dark and secret closet space

Here I meet you and I see
You'll love me to eternity
I don't feel compelled to be
anyone but just plain me

I come confessing my great sin
And the predicaments I'm in
Life is in a tailspin
Oh what a mess of things I've been

I need your absolution Lord
The price you paid I can't afford
Apart from you I am a loss
Your separating good from dross

Not me you see but look to Christ
The one, the only sacrifice
Amen, Amen I say no more
I close my eyes, swing wide the door

Come in Dear Lord and cover me
Then all my flaws are hid in Thee

Eternal Perspective

Thinking eternally...
Rev 3:12 "Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the New Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him my new name."
Rev 4: 2-7 "..a throne stood in heaven with one seated on the throne. And He who sat there had the appearance of Jasper and Carnelian, and around the throne was a rainbow, that had the appearance of an emarld. Around the throne were 24 thrones, and seated in he thrones, were 24 elders, clothes with white garments with golden crowns on their heads. From the throne came clashes of lightening and rumblings, and peals of thunder, and before the throne were burning seven torches of fire, which are the seven spirits of God. And before the throne, there was as it were a
sea of glass, like crystal.
1 Cor 2:9 "But as it is written, eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him."

Thank you that our treasures are hidden with you God and that noone can take them away. Grant us wisdom, Grant us courage, for the facing of this hour, for the facing of this hour.

In the Mighty name of Jesus,
Amen!

Strength to Pray

Heavenly Father,
Give me the strength to pray. Amen.

I will not turn from the right or to the left.
Only show me the way.
Light my path.
Your words are light.

Amen and Amen

God of grace, and God of glory, On Thy people pour thy power. Crown Thy ancient church's story. Bring her bud to glorious flower. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, For the facing of this hour For the facing of this hour.

Joshua 1:7  "Only be thou strong and couragous, that thou mayst observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper, whithersoever thou goest.

Follow Close

Follow close and cling so tight
Times will come with darkest night
When leaving gaps and traveling far
Will frighten you and seem bizarre.

I know the one who will not lie
He teaches truth
He is not sly
He will not ever lead astray
He ever always lights the way

This Jesus is the one I know
His Holy Bible told me so
His little child I will be
And love him to eternity

Who Am I?

I only know myself in You
My identity is tied
to the loving perfect one
who changed me from inside

His Spirit is within
My eternal friend
Never far His temple dwells
Within my very tissue cells

I am my Father's girl
And He is my whole world
I treasure who and what I am
bought with a price, his blood, His plan

I am fully known
And my life is not my own
I walk the path my Jesus trod
I am a child of Most High God

Hey Jeremiah, Need a Lift?

Jeremiah down the well.
Tossed in mud.
Deep and stuck.
All alone and out of luck.

Dark, alone that man of God.
Faithful to His call.
With ropes came Ebed-Melech.
God was in it all.

(Jeremiah 38:7-13)

Nothing happens in this life that gets past God. Patient endurance. That's where it's at. God has our front, back and middle. Even when it seems dim, His anchor holds within the veil. Jeremiah must have meditated a lot in his ministry. Trusted that in all the chaos, God reigned.

Keep us ever faithful till the end Lord.
In Jesus,
Amen
