The Thunderous Voice of God ~
If you could hear God’s voice,
you’d hear the power and the might
behind each word and syllable
making the universe take on flight.
You would hear Him tell the sun,
it was time to shine and rise
you could listen as He ordered it
to dip into the darkening skies.
You would hear Him tell the seasons,
what time to start and when to cease
you could listen as they obeyed Him
without rebellion but in peace.
You would hear Him tell the rain,
when it was time to turn to snow
you could listen to their respect for Him
as each little flake His voice knows.
If you could hear God’s voice,
you would know He was in control
not just of the universe . . .
but, of every single heart and soul!
~~~~~~~~~
“God thundereth marvellously
with his voice;
great things doeth he,
which we cannot comprehend.
For he saith to the snow,
Be thou on the earth;
likewise to the small rain,
and to the great rain
of his strength.”

When I am Strong ~
Lord, when I’m strong,
my faith is weak
and Your will
I do not seek.
For, on my own,
I think I can do it
and I make no time
to wait and sit.
I believe I know,
what I’m to do
so I rush off Lord
without You.
But, when I am weak,
my faith is strong
and I seek Your face
all day long.
For, when I admit,
alone, I can’t do it
it’s when I’m lead
by Your Spirit!

“For when I am weak,
then am I strong.”

Sometimes We Soar ~
Sometimes we soar like eagles,
sometimes we flutter about
sometimes our faith is strong
sometimes we are full of doubt.
Sometimes we reach the mountain,
sometimes in the valley we stay
sometimes to the truth we cling
sometimes to the way we stray.
Sometimes we have victory,
sometimes into sin we fall
sometimes we weather the storm
sometimes we sink in the squall.
Sometimes we stay the course,
sometimes we get off track
sometimes we win the battle
sometimes we fall to the attack.
Sometimes we have strength,
sometimes we feel weak and faint
sometimes we sit and wait
sometimes we have no restraint.
Sometimes we walk by faith,
sometimes we lose our direction
sometimes we try to be faultless
but only Jesus brings perfection!
~~~~~~~~~~~
“But they that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings
as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary;
and they shall walk, and not faint.”

Spiritual Fatigue ~
When discouragement comes,
knocking on your door
you can be sure of this . . .
it’ll knock you to the floor.
It wants to pull the rug,
out from what you believe
discouragement knows . . .
it brings spiritual fatigue.
Discouragement is aware,
of each move you make
it wants to stop the steps
of faith that you take.
It wants to rob the hope,
that lives inside of you
discouragement will distort
what you know to be true.
Discouragement will cause,
spiritual wear and tear . . .
so when it comes knocking
give Jesus, its burden to bear!

for he careth for you.”

The Grace to Be Meek ~
When you’re feeling faint,
when you’re feeling weary
when your burdens are . . .
too much for you to carry.
That’s when you need to go,
to the Lord for His power
He will supply you with . . .
fresh energy for each hour.
When you’re feeling frail,
when you’re feeling defeated
when life has left you . . .
feeling spiritually depleted.
That’s when you need to go,
to the Lord in earnest prayer
His strength you will find . . .
is waiting for you there.
When you need to feel strong,
instead of feeling weak
that’s when you need . . .
God’s grace to make you meek!

Isaiah 40:29
“He giveth power to the faint;
and to them that have no might
he increaseth strength.”

To Be That Deer ~
Lord, may I be that deer,
that pants after You
may Your living waters
in my life, keep running true.
May I thirst after You,
more and more each day
may I find Your mercies
as I go along my way.
May I long to seek You,
to know Your perfect will
may You be the strength
keeping me calm and still.
May I sip from the brook,
flowing with eternal grace
may it be Your undying love
my heart, cries to embrace.
Lord, may my life reflect,
my desire to be near
may my soul pant . . .
after You, like that deer!
~~~~~~~~
Psalm 42:1-2
King James Version
“As the hart panteth
after the water brooks,
so panteth my soul after thee,
O God.
My soul thirsteth for God,
for the living God:
when shall I come
and appear before God?”

The Reason for My Hope
I believe in God,
in all of His glorious creation
I believe He made the heavens
and the earth's foundation.I believe that man,
came from but dust
I believe it's God's image
He puts into all of us.I believe that Satan,
is the cause for our fallen state
I believe it's still his lies
he uses on us to trap and bait.I believe that man's heart,
has always been cold and callous
I believe it's full of deceit
filled with ungodly malice.I believe in Jesus,
God's only begotten Son
I believe He died and rose again
for the sins of everyone.I believe in redemption,
from our wicked, evil ways
I believe it's the blood of the Lamb
that washes our sins away.I believe in God's love,
I believe in His grace
I believe one day
God's judgement all will face.I believe in Heaven,
I also believe in hell . . .
I believe for eternity it's where
the unsaved will dwell.I believe in the hope,
Jesus imparts in me
I believe all can be saved
if these truth they'd just see!~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peter 3:15
King James Version"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts:
and be ready always to give an answer to
every man that asketh you a reason of the hope
that is in you with meekness and fear:"Copyright 2014

I will not be shaken,
nothing can rattle me
not even my own death
will take me, Lord from Thee.I will not tremble,
I have nothing to fear
even if I'm all alone
God is always near.I will not waiver,
on my Rock, I will stand
if I was to stumble
in His grace I will land.I will not be moved,
nothing can take away
the love I have for Jesus
from His ways I'll not stray.I will not be shaken,
nothing will take from me
the peace, faith and hope
I have dear Lord, in Thee!~~~~~~~

from him cometh my salvation.

he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved."King James Version
