THE LORD PROVIDES

2012-02-16T14:34:00.000+07:00

The Lord provides the strength we need
To follow and obey His will;
So we don’t need to be afraid
That what He asks we can’t fulfill

TROUBLE AHEAD

2012-02-03T14:38:00.000+07:00

In this world of sin and trouble
Where so many ills are known,
If I shun the ways of evil,
I am kept by Him alone

I SEARCHED...

2012-01-28T19:49:00.000+07:00

I searched with all my heart to know
If God was really there;
He graciously revealed Himself,
His mercy, love, and care

THE CREATURES OF NATURE

2012-01-26T19:40:00.000+07:00

O Lord, we can see all around us each day
The wisdom the creatures of nature display;
O help us to learn from Your marvelous world
The wonder and beauty Your hands have unfurled.

OUR TIME

2012-01-25T11:15:00.000+07:00

We’re all accountable to God
For how we use our time each day;
Are moments chosen carefully,
Or wasted mindlessly away?

RESPONDS TO HIM

2012-01-17T08:50:00.000+07:00

For many, love is just a word,
A passing phase, a brief emotion;
But love that honors our Lord
Responds to Him with deep devotion

WHY NOT KNOW?

2012-01-11T14:53:00.000+07:00

Not so in haste, my heart!
Have faith in God, and wait;
Although He seems to linger long
He never comes too late.

OBEY HIS WORD

2012-01-05T10:18:00.000+07:00

Lord, help us to obey Your Word,
To heed Your still small voice;
And may we not be swayed by men,
But make Your will our choice

He promised

2011-12-28T09:58:00.000+07:00

Press on in your service for Lord,
Spurred on by your love for the Lord;
He promised that if you are faithful,
One day you’ll receive your reward

JOY AND PEACE

2011-12-24T12:00:00.000+07:00

Oh, what joy and peace we forfeit,
When forgiveness we withhold;
Fellowship with God is broken,
And the heart grows hard and cold.

THE VALLEY OF SORROW

2011-12-20T09:10:00.000+07:00

I have been through the valley of weeping,
The valley of sorrow and pain;
But the God of all comfort was with me,
At hand to uphold and sustain.

AS YOU HAVE LOVED ME, LORD..

2011-12-17T09:08:00.000+07:00

As You have loved me, let me love
Lost souls in darkness dwelling;
To draw the needy ones to You,
Lord, give a zeal compelling!

IN GOOD TIMES AND BAD

2011-12-14T12:01:00.000+07:00

” Father, our days are filled with pleasures and struggles.
We would like for life just to have the joys, but we know
that’s not realistic in this sinful world. Help us to wait
patiently for You to bring us Home

WE CAN’T ESCAPE

2011-12-11T14:23:00.000+07:00

We cannot hide from God
No matter how we try
For He knows all we think and do
We can’t escape His eye

WE ARE DEPENDENT ON HIM

2011-12-03T06:05:00.000+07:00

We are dependent on the Lord
Who showers us with blessing;
He gives us everything we need—
Without Him we are nothing.

The pure and the noble

2011-11-27T11:05:00.000+07:00

Lord, help us to think of the right and the true,
The pure and the noble—it all points to You;
For if we consider what’s worthy of praise,
We’ll then want to live for You all of our days

GUARD WELL YOUR LIFE

2011-11-24T12:19:00.000+07:00

O child of God, guard well your life
From anything that stains the heart;
Forsake those things that soil the mind—
Your Father wants you set apart.

TRUST HIM ALL THE TIME

2011-11-20T14:19:00.000+07:00

Lord, help us trust You all the time
Regardless of what comes our way,
Accepting from Your goodness that
You always have the final say.

THE HOLINESS

2011-11-14T11:58:00.000+07:00

The holiness of God demands
A heart that’s pure within,
Yet grace unites with holiness
To purge the heart from sin

GIFTS OF HIS MARVELOUS LOVE

2011-11-11T09:55:00.000+07:00

We’re loaded with benefits daily,
Sent down from the Father above;
His mercies and blessings abounding
Are gifts of His marvelous love.

THE GIFTS

2011-11-09T10:07:00.000+07:00

The gifts we offer to the Lord
Are by His standards measured;
Our sacrifice and lives of praise—
Such gifts are highly treasured

HIS GRACE

2011-11-02T15:51:00.000+07:00

I am unworthy to take of His grace,
Wonderful grace so free;
Yet Jesus suffered and died in my place
Even for a soul like me

THE POWER IN WORDS

2011-10-29T21:34:00.000+07:00

The power in words can build up or tear down—
Create a big smile or produce a sad frown;
So in all your contacts with people each day,
Be sure to encourage in all that you say.

FORGIVE ME, LORD....FOR PREJUDICE

2011-10-24T13:35:00.000+07:00

If you show partiality, you commit sin. —James 2:9

His face was grimy, his hair long and dirty. Beer stained his clothing and perfumed the air around him. When he stepped into the church building, the Sunday worshipers ignored him. They were stunned when the man approached the pulpit, took off his wig, and began preaching. That’s when they realized he was their pastor.

I don’t know about you, but I tend to be friendly and shake hands with the people I know and those who pre-sent themselves well.

James issued a serious warning for people like me. He said, “If you show partiality, you commit sin” (2:9). Favoritism based on appearance or economic status has no place in God’s family. In fact, it means we have “become judges with evil thoughts” (v.4).

Fortunately, we can guard against preferential treatment by loving our neighbor as ourselves—no matter who our neighbor may be. Reaching out to the homeless man, the hungry woman, or the heartbroken teen means we “fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture”

Forgive me, Lord, for prejudice—
Remove its subtle lie;
Oh, fill my heart with Your great love
That sent Your Son to die

GOD’S FAITHFULLNESS

2011-10-22T13:02:00.000+07:00

God’s faithfulness we’ve known throughout the years,
His oneness with us in our joys and tears;
So many times the Lord has helped us through,
Has answered prayer and given strength anew.
