Never Separated !

Nothing in this life has ever come our way
That made God’s forever love toward us sway
He has promised his arms would always embrace
In the deepest , darkest valleys we would ever face

Neither the wars of man that burden this world
Nor the greatest injustice by people unfurled
Not the schemes of the devil have ever displaced
God’s love for us and his eternal Grace…
God has reached us with his eternal Grace….

God’s love extended us a place before his throne
Through the blood of Christ, for all sins to atone
Kneeling in prayer to lift our every concern and care
Will bring peace to our hearts beyond compare..

You see God is forever faithful to the promises of His Word
And that our humble prayers before him will always be heard, 
He will never forsake you or leave you in a place beyond his reach
And promises to guide you , your open heart to teach.

There is no depth that can be measured
That reflects how much we're treasured
God reaches us in the lowest of places 
Touches hearts , and brings joy to our faces.

There is no valley in which we trod
That isn’t filled with the grace of God
Nothing this life can ever bring
That can cause our hearts not to sing.

Keep Reaching Upward to the God who treasures every breath he’s given you…

Romans 8:35-39

35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?

36 As it is written, "For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered."

37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers,

39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The "Be" attitudes (part 1 of 4)

Jesus climbed up a very tall mount
Followed by people too many to count
To teach on heaven's code for living
It starts with a heart of simply believing

Living with your soul filled with humility
Serving others with your God given ability
Will open your eyes to see heaven on earth
While showing to people their God given worth

Knowing for what to weep and mourn
Reaching out with comfort to lift the forlorn
Will open up showers of grace from above
And render your heart with peace like a dove

Matthew 5:3-4KJV)
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. [4] Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

Faith and Courage

Faith and Courage

Faith is found in believing
In God who is forever true
Courageously trusting him
With all you say and do

There will be times that tempt you
To give in to your doubts and fears
Cry out to God who strengthens
And wipes away all tears

Don’t judge your life by circumstance
Because trials both come and go
Rather stand on God’s promises
And your Joy will overflow

Isaiah 41:10 (KJV)
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

The Cross of Calvary

The Cross of Calvary

When I look upon Calvary’s tree,
To see my Savior die for me
I scarce can keep my tears at bay
As God’s Grace washes my sins away

Christ came to earth from Heaven’s throne
And died that death all alone
To free us all from the curse of sin
And renew our spirit deep within

“Father Forgive them”  was his cry
As he hung on that cross in my place to die
And then with a whisper as loud as thunder
He said “It is Finished”… as I watched in wonder

Finished was the payment for my sin
I scarce had breath to take it in
Forgiven and Paid and Forever Free
God’s mercy displayed for all to see

Then conquering the death that paid for sin
The chords of death could not keep him in
Raising up from the pit of strife
My Savior arose and gave us life !

Now he’s gone back to heaven
To prepare us a place
Where we can be with him
And bask in his Grace.

Remembering Why He Came….
Happy Easter Week

Lonely Place

God called me to a lonely place
Where I could look upon his face
And pour out all my doubts and fear
To quiet my soul and be still to hear 

In that lonely place, I was not alone
But humbly kneeled before his Throne
Where he gave to me a peace within
My heart took wings, free from sin

In that lonely place, God's voice was clear
His perfect love drove away my fear
He set my eyes to things above
To embrace His eternal love

Now from that lonely place I come and go
To fill my cup to overflow
And fully live the life I've been given
Sharing the love of a Savior risen.

Looking upward to see inward to live outward.

Healing Grace....

God's healing grace has made me whole
Fully bound are the wounds of soul
It's brought me peace along my way
Heaven's healing grace is here to stay.....

Shedding light in the midst of the rain
God's healing grace has eased my pain
And given my heart the hope to see
The eternal love He placed on me

God's healing grace has made me whole
Fully bound are the wounds of soul
It's brought me peace along my way
Heaven's healing grace is here to stay

Forgiving my every sin and neglect
Lifting my life with dignity and respect
Drawing me close to walk by his side
In his presence to forever abide......
In his presence to forever abide.

Rev 22:1

And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness

When tough memories come flooding in
Battered by the consequence of sin
God's spirit will strengthen your heart
By offering forgiveness to allow a new start.
