IN TIMES LIKE THESE

A personal poem.

In times like these
I lose my footing
Reaching out to grasp Your hand
O, Lord in You my trust I'm putting

Guide me through these darken woods
Shine Your perfect light
Lead me to Your chosen path
That will make all things right

In times like these
I lay my head at Your feet
With rolling tears down my cheek
And I remember with You I'm complete

I hear Your voice
Sweetly, gently calling me
"You are my precious child
Be still in me"

In times like these
I battle my flesh
Being torn in half with nothing left
You fill my cup, I'm refreshed

You wrap Your arms around me
Feeling safe and secure
You are my Refuge
In You I will endure

In times like these
I look back at my past
Seeing all You brought me through
Learning Your love will always surpass

Your Love Never Fails

 Sometimes we need to feed our soul with music. This song is such a great reminder of what God's love is.  It never fails.  No matter what your facing His Love Never Fails! What a wonderful promise. Place that promise in your heart. Hold it tight. He'll never let you down. His Love never runs out. His Love is Perfect. God Bless You!  Jesus Culture - Your Love Never Fails Nothing can separate Even if I ran away Your love never fails I know I still make mistakes But You have new mercies for me everyday Your love never fails Chorus: You stay the same through the ages Your love never changes There may be pain in the night but joy comes in the morning  And when the oceans rage I don't have to be afraid Because I know that You love me Your love never fails Verse 2: The wind is strong and the water's deep But I'm not alone here in these open seas Cause Your love never fails The chasm is far too wide I never thought I'd reach the othe

Obedience brings Victory. And Victory is Life

I'm a big Star Trek fan. I've enjoyed almost ever incarnation of this Sci-Fi giant. Recently my husband and I have been watching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. One of the enemies for this particular series are the Jem'Hadar. These creatures are genetically engineered for battle and controlled through a drug called ketracel-white; which they require to function properly. Their mantra is "Obedience brings Victory. And Victory is Life." Every time they say this, I cringe. They are following orders from people who don't care for them and whose only goal is their own survival. I always felt it was such a terrible mantra. But today I had a revelation.  During today's sermon, my pastor was going over John 10, The Good Shepherd. One of his points was how do we ensure that we can hear our Good Shepherd's (Jesus) voice. We need to read His word, meditate in His word, memorize His word and obey  His word. Through obeying His word & voice we find life.

Heavenly Father (4/13/16)

Heavenly Father, Thank you for your wonderful love, grace and mercy. You have been my constant, my rock and my refugee. You have guided my path into directions I never would have thought to go. Lord, recently I have been questioning my desire to continue in the path I find myself. Is this restlessness from you? Is it God given? Do you have another path you want me to take? Father I ask for insight. Lord guide me. Father light the path you want me to take. Show me without a shadow of a doubt the directions/steps to take. Father, I rebuke any unnecessary fear that I may feel in whatever you ask me to do. If this fear is coming from the enemy, erase it and feel it withe courage and faith. Guard my heart and mind, Lord. Lord, I'm also asking for a miracle. Scott and I, for 10 years now, have this desire to have children. Lord bless us with a child. I'm being pushy now, Bless us with children! Lord, cover these children with your love, mercy and grace. Lord perform a MIRA
