HERE I AM TO WORSHIP

 

Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes let me see
Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You
Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You’re my God
You’re altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Atogether wonderful to me
King of all days
Oh so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came to the earth You created
All for love’s sake became poor
I’ll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
Do you realize how amazing that is? God wants wants so much to have a relationship with us that He sent His Son to live among us, to teach, to suffer and then to die. Asking for His forgiveness for our sins and accepting Jesus Christ as your Savior is all that is needed to dwell with God for all eternity. YES!!!!!! He did that for you! No matter how messy your past! Ask Him now for this blessing. Don't know how? Email me at the address on the left. I would love to pray with you.


I just got home from our monthly communion service. A sweet time of worship, teaching and accepting the bread and grape juice as symbols of His body and blood. I love spending time with my church family. Feel so blessed that I am free to worship God freely.

Do you have a prayer request? If so, you may leave it here or email me. I WILL PRAY EVERYDAY for you until I here from you that the prayers are no longer needed.

 WORD OF GOD SPEAK

 

I'm finding myself at a loss for words

And the funny thing is it's okay

The last thing I need is to be heard

But to hear what You would say
Word of God speak

Would You pour down like rain

Washing my eyes to seeYour majesty
To be still and know

That You're in this place

Please let me stay and rest

In Your holinessWord of God speak
I'm finding myself in the midst of You

Beyond the music, beyond the noise

All that I need is to be with You

And in the quiet hear Your voice
Word of God speak

Would You pour down like rain

Washing my eyes to seeYour majesty
To be still and know

That You're in this place

Please let me stay and rest

In Your holiness

Word of God speak
Word of God speak

Would You pour down like rain

Washing my eyes to seeYour majesty
To be still and know

That You're in this place

Please let me stay and rest

In Your holiness

Word of God speak
I'm finding myself at a loss for words

And the funny thing is it's okay

Few songs move me like this song does. It is a song about prayer. Word of God Speak! Isn't that what we are all longing for? To hear from God and as the song says "stay and rest in Your holiness". My favorite thing to do is crawl up in God's lap, lay my head on His chest, tell Him about my day, about my prayer requests and then listen to Him. I love Him so much that I talk to Him all day. It ranges from small things; praising Him for the rain, beauty of a flower or the rain; or it may be something big like; pain relief, satan's attacks, work issues. God is in the small stuff and the big stuff. Try for one day to keep the lines of communication open all day. You don't have to start each time with a "Dear God" opening or close with "Amen". I start my day with prayer and throughout the day I just talk to Him as I would to someone in the room with me (sometimes out loud and sometimes in my head). Good luck.

 

If you have a prayer request either email me, at the address to the left, or click the prayer request icon above.

 

Dear Sweet Heavenly Father,

 

Give ears to hear Your voice and the patience to wait in the stillness.

Let us rest in Your holiness. Word of God speak.

 

Amen

Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour

 

 

As ear­nest Christ­ian pas­tor told of a young man about whom he had long felt much an­xi­e­ty, as he had seemed so un­con­cerned about his soul, and was, in re­al­i­ty, a real cause of dis­turb­ance and in­ter­rupt­ion in class­es for other young men. Meet­ing him one day, the lov­ing pas­tor sought once more to in­flu­ence him, urg­ing, “We want you for Christ and his ser­vice.” There was a cer­tain change in his man­ner which did not es­cape the eye of the pray­er­ful watch­er for souls, and—lack­ing time to do more—he seized the op­por­tun­i­ty to se­cure the pre­sence of his young friend at a Christ­ian En­dea­vor meet­ing soon to be held. True to his prom­ise he was there. When an op­por­tun­i­ty was giv­en for some of the young men to choose a song, it was seen that he was urg­ing his com­pan­ion to se­lect some par­tic­u­lar hymn. The other, yield­ing to his re­quest, asked if the hymn, “Pass me not, O gentle Sav­iour,” might be sung; and both young men joined in the sing­ing with ev­i­dent in­ter­est and heart­i­ness. Lat­er in the ev­en­ing it was re­quest­ed that all who were def­in­ite­ly on the Lord’s side would con­fess their al­le­giance by stand­ing. Where­up­on the one over whom the heart of the pas­tor was spe­cial­ly yearn­ing rose at once, and with de­ci­sion.
“Tell me about your con­ver­sion,” the thank­ful pas­tor re­quest­ed at the close of the meet­ing, when hands were clasped in glad, bro­ther­ly wel­come and re­cog­ni­tion.
“Oh, yes,” as­sent­ed the other. “It was all through that hymn we have just sung. I was work­ing on the canal at G–, and there was a meet­ing be­ing held at the Mar­in­er’s Cha­pel, near­by. The words float­ed out over the wa­ter, and from the tug where I was work­ing I could hear them plain­ly enough. When they were just go­ing to sing those lines—‘While on others Thou are call­ing, Do not pass me by!’ a great fear came over me, and I thought, ‘Oh, if the Lord were to pass me by, how ter­ri­ble it would be!’ Then and there, on the tug, I cried out, ‘O Lord, do not pass me by.’ And”—with a bright smile—“he didn’t pass me by. I am saved.’”

Pass me not, O gentle Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Refrain

Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Let me at Thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief,
Kneeling there in deep contrition;
Help my unbelief.

Refrain

Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.

Refrain

Thou the Spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me,
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in Heav’n but Thee?

Refrain
