for God will never leave or forsake you

Held by Natalie Grant

Two months is too little
They let him go
They had no sudden healing
To think that providence
Would take a child from his mother
While she prays, is appalling
Who told us we'd be rescued
What has changed and
Why should we be saved from nightmares
We're asking why this happens to us
Who have died to live, it's unfair

This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held

This hand is bitterness
We want to taste it and
Let the hatred numb our sorrows
The wise hand opens slowly
To lilies of the valley and tomorrow

This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held

If hope is born of suffering
If this is only the beginning
Can we not wait, for one hour
Watching for our savior

This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held
We'd be held

This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was when everything fell
We'd be held

This is what it means to be held.....

I pray for those who are suffering in Haiti right now, that they will find salvation in God's grace and mercy showered upon them. May all grief-stricken families be comforted, may the injured be healed and may all people of Haiti find the strength to survive and move on with their lives.

and God commanded...

Mark 16:15
And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation."

2 Timothy 4:2
Preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.

Awaken

Awaken my heart, awaken my soul
Awaken your power and take control
Awaken the passion to live for you, lord
Awaken me

Our Heart

hey everyone, here's a beautiful song for you:)


Our heart, our desire is to see the nations worship.
Our cry, our prayer is to sing your praise to the ends of the earth.
That with one mighty voice every tribe and tongue rejoices.
Our heart, our desire is to see the nations worship You.

Heavenly Father, Your mercy showers
Down upon all people, every race upon the earth.
May Your Spirit pierce the darkness, break the chains of death upon us.
Let us rise in honest worship to declare Your matchless worth

Our heart, our desire is to see the nations worship.
Our cry, our prayer is to sing your praise to the ends of the earth.
That with one mighty voice every tribe and tongue rejoices.
Our heart, our desire is to see the nations worship You.

Crossing The Line

time flies and yet another year has begun...

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!

Earlier this morning, my pastor gave us a rather interesting sermon, of which I felt lead by God to share it with you.

It's about crossing lines. Have you ever been in a situation during which you had wanted to do something but just did not have the courage to do so because you felt afraid and doubtful? I'm sure you have. I certainly have had many such experiences. In Matthew 14: 25-33, the Lord had stood on the sea and asked Peter to walk towards Him. So Peter did as he was told. He had managed to walk on water till his faith in the Lord dimmed when he saw the fierce winds and roaring seas. He began to drown.

We all must hold steadfast in our faith, for the Lord has told us to trust in Him and lean not unto our own understanding. The lines that you and I have to cross may make us look/feel out of ordinary...but does the Lord want us to be ordinary people? No!

The lines that we have to cross are unique to each individual. It can be as simple as learning to trust a friend or even having more faith in the Lord as we journey through our lives with him! or perhaps, it could be something that the Lord wants us to do for him.

A new year is about leaving the past behind, setting new goals and moving forward in our lives.

Everyone has new year resolutions...but have you ever been able to fulfil every single one? Is/are there any goals that you have tried to achieve but have never been able to do so after many years? You see, today i've learnt that these lines are our challenges set before us, challenges that we cannot run away from but simple have to learn how to overcome them and cross the lines. So i pray today, that our heavenly Father will give us the strength and courage to cross the lines set before us and that He will free us from all fear and doubt for he has not given us the spirit of fear! Amen!

So from today onwards, realise the lines that you have to cross, do not runaway from them but face them with new found courage and strength from the Lord.

The Lord has told us that nothing is impossible with Him!

God Bless and have a fruitful week ahead!
