"I can't even walk without him holding my hand...." -That song kept running through my head all the way home tonight. I even need to call on him to just help me to get out of the bed in the morning! Pitiful you may think, but I don't ever want to move away from being in that position. What Grace! Precious grace!
The Lord be exaulted!
Praise You LORD!
For it is good to sing Your praises oh God!
For You are pleasant, and Your praise is beautiful.
You LORD build up Jerusalem;
You alone gather together the outcasts of Israel.
You heal the brokenhearted!
You bind up our wounds.
You count the number of the stars;
and call them all by name.
Great are You oh Lord, You are mighty in power!
Your understanding is infinite.
You lift up the humble;
You cast the wicked down to the ground.
I sing to You Lord in thanksgiving;
I sing praises in my heart to you God!
Who covers the heavens with clouds,
Who prepares rain for the earth,
Who makes grass to grow on the mountains.
You give to the beast its food,
And to the young ravens that cry.
You do not delight in the strength of the horse;
and take no pleasure in the legs of a man.
You LORD take pleasure in those who fear You,
In those who hope in Your mercy! Whoooohoooo!
i praise You LORD, O Jerusalem!
Praise the One True God, O Zion!
For He has strengthened the bars of your gates;
He has blessed your children within you.
You Lord,make peace in your borders,
And fill them with the finest wheat.
You send out Your command to the earth;
Your word runs very swiftly.
You give snow like wool;
You scatter the frost like ashes;
You cast out hail like morsels;
Who can stand before Your cold?
You send out Your word and melt them;
You causes the wind to blow, and the waters to flow.
You declared Your word to Jacob,
You've made known your statutes and judgments to Israel.
You have not dealt this with just any nation;
Your judgments, they had not known.
Soli Deo Gloria!!

Satisfied!
All my life I had a longing
For a drink from some clear spring,
That I hoped would quench the burning
Of the thirst I felt within.
Hallelujah! I have found Him
Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings,
Through His blood I now am saved.
Feeding on the husks around me,
Till my strength was almost gone,
Longed my soul for something better,
Only still to hunger on.
Poor I was, and sought for riches,
Something that would satisfy,
But the dust I gathered round me
Only mocked my soul’s sad cry.
Well of water, ever springing,
Bread of life so rich and free,
Untold wealth that never faileth,
My Redeemer is to me.
-Clara T. Williams, 1975
He satisfies my every longing! He drew and gloriously saved me! ME of all people! ME! Hallelujah that he doesn't leave me to myself...right where I thought I'd wanted to be left. He mercifully strove with me when all I wanted was to play like I knew him. I had NO clue what power was in his name, what glorious victories he had for me to be a part of. How excellent! How awesome my God truely is. Hallelujah! Soli Deo Gloria!

Praise you LORD. Praise you LORD from the heavens: praise you in the heights.
Praise you, all your angels: praise you, all your hosts.
Praise you, sun and moon: praise you, all the stars of light.
Praise you, the heavens of heavens, and the waters that be above the heavens.
Let them praise the name of you oh LORD: for you commanded, and they were created.
You hath also stablished them for ever and ever: you hath made a decree which shall not pass.
Praise you LORD from the earth, the dragons, and all deeps:
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling your word:
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
Let them praise your name oh LORD: for your name alone is excellent; your glory is above the earth and heaven.
You also exalteth the horn of your people, the praise of all your saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto you. Praise you LORD!!! AMEN!!!

Hosea 6&7...we can learn from the past...Listen America!
Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up. After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.
Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.
O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away.
Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth.
For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.
Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, and is polluted with blood.
And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.
I have seen an horrible thing in the house of Israel: there is the whoredom of Ephraim, Israel is defiled.
Also, O Judah, he hath set an harvest for thee, when I returned the captivity of my people.
Hosea 7
When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without.
And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face.
They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.
In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners.
For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not.
And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to the LORD their God, nor seek him for all this.
Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard.
Woe unto them! for they have fled from me: destruction unto them! because they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for corn and wine, and they rebel against me.
Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me.
They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.
O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away.
Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth.

Walking in the cool of the evening
The voive of the Lord could be heard
Trying to run from their rebellion
and hide from the presence of God
A covering had to be provided
And only one thing could atone
The life of another must be taken
For the blood, it had to flow
And now there's no more blood to be shed-
Just a sacrefice of praise-
Lifted to the One who gave His life for my debt to be paid
No more beasts to slay the Lamb of God died once for all
and His sacrefice will forever be enough.
On the day of atonement
The high preist would enter alone
Into the Holy of Holies
Trembling with godly fear and awe
Hoping the blood would be accepted
To cover all the sin that they had done
But the blood of bulls and goats could never take away their sin
They looked to the one who died to save all men
And now there's no more blood to be shed-
Just a sacrefice of praise-
Lifted to the One who gave His life for my debt to be paid
No more beasts to slay the Lamb of God died once for all
and His sacrefice will forever be enough.
Yes the blood he shed will forever be enough!
Amen!

AMEN!!!!
God is so Good!
I praise You LORD! I sing to You LORD a new song, and Your praise in the congregation of saints.
Let Israel rejoice in You that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in You oh mighty King!
Let them praise Your name in the dance: let them sing praises to You with the timbrel and harp.
For tYou LORD take pleasure in Your people: You will beautify the meek with salvation!
Let the saints be joyful in glory: let us sing aloud upon our beds.
Let the high praises of You oh God be in our mouth, and a two-edged sword in our hand;
To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;
To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all of us as Your saints. Praise You oh LORD!
AMEN!!!!

He is God
I love the Lord because he hears my voice. I love the Lord because he hears my prayer. I love the Lord because he hears my voice- turning his ear always to me. Turning his ear always to me!
Soli Deo Gloria!
Out of his GREAT LOVE he picked me up- Set my feet on a sturdy rock! Out of His GREAT LOVE I know the meaning of SALVATION out of His GREAT LOVE!
I had gone astray
I had lost my way
When I called upon His name.
Then he rescued me
And the song I sang,
What a Loving God is he.
Out of his GREAT LOVE he picked me up- Set my feet on a sturdy rock! Out of His GREAT LOVE I know the meaning of SALVATION out of His GREAT LOVE!
Now I shout his praise
Through all my days
For his endless mercy and grace.
There's no other one
Who has greater love.
Where Joy I'll ever say...
