The day has begun

9/16/2014

The day has begun with prayer. The sins of yesterday confessed and forgiven. God blesses with each word of praise that comes from my lips. This day opens with darkness, but then the light begins to flow across His creation. Morning comes gentle and quiet seeping across the coolness of night. The sounds begin with chirps and breezes. As the earth opens her arms to receive the sun, God is present in each moment. The darkness is always defeated. The Lord is praised in each day. This day has begun. Oh glorious day. Oh, glorious Lord God.
Amen.

Peace in the Midst of Chaos

God is leading me on a new path where I am learning to trust Him more. He is always faithful. As I lift my foot, that's the first act of faith. As I start to put my foot down but there is no where safe for it to land, that's the second act of faith. Put my foot down on the path, not knowing what lies under my foot, now that's the third act of faith. Then just letting Him take control of everything for that moment and that moment only, that's where I am. Living on faith is really, really hard but so rewarding when my foot somehow lands on solid ground. He knows where the path leads, I don't need to know. No matter what lies ahead, He is with me to help me as I go forward.

Living on faith,

I Am A Survivor

Lord Jesus
You placed Your name
Upon my forehead
Your hand is always
Upon my head
Your name is
Upon my lips
Your arms encircle me
Continually

You place my feet
On the right path
You send
Your holy angels
To fight on my behalf
You hold back those who
Would destroy me
You are God

There is nothing to fear
Even if armies camp
All around me
And thieves break in to
Steal those who are
Precious to me
You, only You, are in the
Midst of my terror
You will lead me through
The wilderness

If all turns black
And dismal
Your voice will bring me
Comfort
If the world screams doom
And destruction
You promise to bring me
Peace and even
The elusive joy I
Miss in my inner being

When I remember…
When I remember
It’s Your name on
My forehead
Your Hand on my head
Your name on my lips
Your arms
Your guidance
Your protection
That brings light into
My world

When all around me
Seems to collapse in fear
I drop to my knees
Fix my eyes on You
My God
My Savior
My Holy Spirit
The only One who
Died for me
Rose from all that would
Destroy You and
You forever triumphed

Why did You do that
Act of love for me?
When things are easy
I forget You
I squander my time
Here on earth
Then when things are
Shattering all around me
I cry out to You

Why did You die for me?
One who abandons you so
Quickly and easily
You love me with a love
I will never comprehend
And the miracle is that You love me
even when I forget that I have
Your Name written
Indelibly upon my forehead and Your Hand
Is on my head
And I hear Your Name
Spoken with disrespect
Even when I don’t feel
Your commanding presence
When you enfold me in
Your arms

When I am deep in fear
I forget Your guidance
And Your army of angels
Encamped all around me
When I forget to seek Your Face
And ask for your guidance
Even when I forget all that…
You still love me
And you never
Abandon me

Although to the world it seems

I am alone
I am lost
I am destroyed
I am afraid
I am weak

But because of what You
Did for me on the cross
You are victorious over everything

Because of You
My dear loving
Victorious
Savior…

Because of You
And You alone

I AM A SURVIVOR!
