Theme Song Thursday

"Healer"

You hold my very moment
You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire
And heal all my disease
I trust in You, I trust in You

I believe You're my healer
I believe You are all I need
I believe

And I believe You're my portion
I believe You're more than enough for me
Jesus You're all I need

You hold my very moment
You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire
And heal all my disease
I trust in You, Lord I trust in You

I believe You're my healer
I believe You are all I need
Oh, I believe

I believe You're my portion
I believe You're more than enough for me
Jesus You're all I need

Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible
Nothing is impossible for You
You hold my world in Your hands

Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible
Nothing is impossible for You
You hold my world in Your hands

I believe You're my healer
I believe You are all I need
Oh, yes You are, yes You are

And I believe You're my portion
Lord I believe You're more than enough for me
Jesus You're all I need
More than enough for me
Jesus You're all I need

You're my healer

Choose Presence

Pray continually. —1 Thessalonians 5:17

Up to this time you have not asked a [single] thing in My Name [as presenting all that I am]; but now ask and keep on asking and you will receive, so that your joy (gladness, delight) may be full and complete. —John 16:24 amp

In my weakness, You are strong. You are my strength.  I realize my need for you more when things are hard, sad, scary.  No amount of me can help me in those times. Thank you for Your Presence that brings righteousness, peace and joy.  I cannot fix or change this painful situation.  Only You can make it happen.  May the meditations of my heart be pleasing to You, and therefore true.  There is always hope, always redemption and restoration available.  I trust You.  Help me to learn to trust again.  I/we need Your wisdom to guide us in how to walk, so that my joy may be full and complete.

I choose to focus on You so that my emptiness will be filled with Your Presence and not my problems.  Thank-you that You are always with me.  I will continue to ask and to hope-- continually expect good in every area of my life.  This is in Your hands, God.

Change is Good and Hard

 BLEH -- Ok, now that that's out of the way, I can agree with my title.

 Love it that the weather has warmed and the snow pack is melting.  Love it that I can change the background of my blog and feel the freshness of spring.  Love it that God is always at work, doing new things, making all things new and providing us with new opportunities.

 And yet, the "warmer" temperatures and melting snow pack bring severe weather and flooding.  Changing my blog's background looks great (in my opinion) with the recent posts that show on the home page, but is not as attractive on some of the older posts.  New things, renewed things and new opportunities free me from my ruts, but jolt me out of my comfort zone and cause me to have to make new decisions and take new action. 

 It's been a long, frustrating morning here in our home school; math, the usual suspect, has bruised us again.  Tears and frustrated words have flowed, and we have decisions to make that are difficult and grievous.  Yet once again I sing:

You can have it all, Lord, every part of my world.  Take this life and breathe on this heart that is now Yours!"
 What good/hard changes are happening in your world?

Theme Song Thursday

You hide, I want to find you
Go, and I will follow you
I want to be where you are
As You move, I’m right beside you, love
Oh, I’m running after you
I want to be where You are

Chorus:
I’m Chasing You, I’m so in love
Captivated, I just can’t get enough
I’ll spend my days, Running after Your heart

Your heart, Your heart, Whoa
I’m Chasing You, with all my love
Captivated, I just cant get enough
I’ll spend my days, Running after Your heart
Your heart, Your heart, Whoa

Verse 2:
Heart, You’ve won me heart and soul
And where You lead I’ll go
I want to be where You are
From the moment I rise to the moment I sleep
My affection is for you, and even as I dream
I want to know you, I’m after Your heart

Bridge:
This life, this love, was always meant to be
A wild, crazy adventure discovering
The thrill, the rush, the more of You I see
The more it leaves me wanting
You’re everything
You’re everything

Theme Song Thursday

{until recently, snowbound and without internet service}

There's nothing worth more
That could ever come close
Nothing can compare
You're our living Hope
Your presence Lord


I've tasted and seen
Of the sweetest of love
When my heart becomes free
And my shame is undone
Your presence Lord

Chorus:
Holy Spirit You are welcome here
Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere
Your glory God is what our hearts long for
To be overcome by Your presence Lord.

Bridge:
Let us become more aware of Your presence
Let us experience the glory of Your goodness
