(from the perspective of the heart of God through Christ)
I knew what I was getting into
When I called YOU...
...and I like you
I knew what I was getting into when I said your name
...but I said it just the same
I still want you
Even Elijah had a nature like yours
All my friends had a nature like yours
What makes men great is humility
and faith
I knew what I was getting into
and I still chose you
...more than tolerate you
I know where this thing
it is going
You're just at the beginning
and I can see the end of the story
all that fighting and breaking
is working in you humility
...it is like gold
and I am not surprised
I am not repulsed
...when you realized your weakness
you're the one that was shocked
...but I still wanted you
You're more than a project just to make Me look good.
It's more than mercy
It's more than pity
I see something more in you
I see something you can't see in yourself
I knew what I was getting into
...when I beckoned you.
And I don't regret it at all.
And I don't regret it at all.

Psalm 16
Oh, Preserver of my soul, keep me.
Overseer of my life, keep me.
Let me not be put to shame.
I look to You
Lift my eyes up to You.
Overseer of my life, keep me.
Let me not be put to shame.
I look to You
Lift my eyes up to You.

Not Human Reasoning, but True Love: John 15
Matthew 16 I ask You, Spirit of the Living God, to reveal what flesh and blood simply cannot.
Love in form I know not of.
Nothing like this has been displayed on earth by any other.
John 15
As the Father love Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. ...the words of Christ Jesus.
Chorus by Misty Edwards and team at 6 p.m. today:
Who can comprehend
The way we are loved
Who can comprehend
Like the Father loves the Son
I want to enter in
To divine love
Abide in My love
My beloved
Spirit of God,
I pray that You would reveal what flesh and blood cannot
Reveal love to a generation that is living devoid of true love.
Wandering
Searching
Deperate
Hurting
...many unaware of their own depravity
...not asking for You
...not looking for anything outside of themselves
Wandering
Searching
Desperate
Hurting
I ask You, Spirit of the Living God, to reveal what flesh and blood cannot.
Reveal what my words cannot.
Love in form I know not of.
Nothing like this has been displayed on earth by any other.
John 15
As the Father love Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. ...the words of Christ Jesus.

My Blog Doesn't Look Cool... ... Hmmmm
I want to learn more about this blogging stuff. I am just really slow and inconsistent.
Let it be known.
Whelp...that's it for now...
Go outside, it's too nice to be staring at a computer screen!

I Am Never Alone ... Psalm 23 ...
... ... ... ...
Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I won't be afraid.
For You are with me.
Lord, You're my light
Lord, You're my salvation
I will not be afraid
My eyes are on You, Lord
This world is not my home
I'm simply passing through
Though I walk
Through the valley
You are for me
You are with me
Upholding me
Transforming me
So I will not
Will not give up
My soul You keep
In this I am confident
In You I am confident
Though a thousand fall at my left
Ten thousand at my right
You are with me
The Lord of Hosts is with me
He is for me
He is with me
I have a God who fights for me
I have a God who is with me
He avenges me
The Lord of Hosts
It is God who avenges me
My times are in His hands
The enemy can't take away His plan
The eyes of the Lord are on me
That is enough for me
He sees everything
That is enough for me
He knows everything
In this I will be confident
His presence is with me
His plans are good
His eyes are ever on me
This is my confession
This is my testimony
Be still my soul
Be still and know
Jesus has a plan for me
What God has planned for me
The enemy cannot stop
God has all authority
He has all power
His name is Jesus
He is the Lord of Hosts
Be still my soul
Be still and know
Everything is in Your hands
Greater is He that is in me
Everything is in Your hands
Greater is He who lives in me
Be still my soul
Be still and know
His name is Yaweh
He is alive
His name is Yaweh
Jealousy is in His heart
His name is Yaweh
He is alive
His name is Yaweh
My name is written in His heart
He has not forgotten
He has never forsaken
I am not forgotten
I am not forsaken
... ... ... ...
Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I won't be afraid.
For You are with me.
Lord, You're my light
Lord, You're my salvation
I will not be afraid
My eyes are on You, Lord
This world is not my home
I'm simply passing through
Though I walk
Through the valley
You are for me
You are with me
Upholding me
Transforming me
So I will not
Will not give up
My soul You keep
In this I am confident
In You I am confident
Though a thousand fall at my left
Ten thousand at my right

The Lord of Hosts is with me
He is for me

"My Hope" by Tim Wanstall, Matt Redman, Robert Marvin
This is one of my favorite songs!!
Simple sounds of keys & cello.
(verse words, public domain; written by Edward Mote, circa 1834, first appeared in Mote's Hymns of Praise, 1836)
love this song:
My hope is built
On nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
I dare not trust
The sweetest frame
But wholly lean
On Jesus' Name
When the mountains are falling
When the waters are rising
I shall be safe in You
Though the nations are quaking
Every kingdom be shaken
Still I will rest in You
When darkness seems
To hide Your face
I rest on Your
Unchanging grace
In every high
And stormy gale
My anchor holds
Within the veil
Simple sounds of keys & cello.
