More than life-Hillsong
Stand by everything You said
Stand by the promises we made
Let go of everything I 've done
I'll run into Your open arms
And all I know
I love You more than life
I love You more than life
Fall back on everything You've done
Fall back on everlasting arms
When all the world is swept away
You are all the things I need
You're the air I breathe
How can it be
You were the one on the cross
Lifted for all our shame?
How can it be
The scars in Your hands are for me?
You are the king of all
This song brings back so many great memories of when my faith was newly growing and budding. Just being prepped...to get ready for the trials I would later face. And I just love how in love with God I was then and how much my walk has come since that time...
The words in this song just...gosh..are so sobering. I do..I love Him more than life. And although my actions might not always show it.. due to my lack of getting in my word daily or pressing in more and more..but..I do..I love Him. Jesus is the best thing that ever, ever happened to me. I don't deserve anything He gives me...and yet, here I am. Alive and breathing.
I just wanna sing this song all day...I feel God's arms around me...love it...
(Here are a few more songs from this album that I loved:)
I wrote the back in April on my other (now retired) blog Not Broken (PCOS/Infertility/Life) and I heard this song just now on my Pandora "worship" station...I so needed this reminder...it softened my heart to the things God is doing in my life right now and the place I am now in. I know I have to find joy in everything..even some of THE most heartbreaking parts.
I definately have my moments of weakness...a few have come quite recently..but I still have hope. I still have faith and I still put my trust in the hands of my Saviour, Jesus Christ. God, be my strength...
If you want me to-Ginny Owens...
The pathway is broken/ And the signs are unclear /And I don't know the reason why/ You brought me here/ But just because You love me /the way that You do I'm gonna walk through the valley/ If You want me to
No I'm not who I was /When I took my first step/ And I'm clinging to the promise/ You're not through with me yet /So if all of these trials bring me closer to /You Then I will go through the fire /If You want me to
It may not be the way I would have chosen /When You lead me through a world that's not my home /But You never said it would be easy /You only said I'll never go alone/ So when the whole world turns against me /And I'm all by myself And I can't hear You answer my cries for help/ I'll remember the suffering Your love put You through /And I will go through the darkness/ If You want me to
When I cross over Jordan, I'm gonna sing, gonna shout /Gonna look into your eyes and see you never let me down /So take me on the pathway that leads me home to you /And I will walk through the valley if you want me to /Yes, I will walk through the valley if you want me to
.......
"Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."
Psalm 23:4 "These trials are only to test your faith.. It's (faith) being tested as fire tests and purifies gold...." 1 Peter 1:7
..mama finished reading Heaven is For Real last night...
It's such a good book..loved the chapter "two sisters". I love how it describes their angel baby as happy and adopted by God (The Father)...and that she cannot wait for her mommy and daddy to get there. I never ever doubted that angel babies like you went to Heaven, that's just something I know. But I did realize that..there..you have such fullness, just like I prayed you would and wrote to you when we wrote our letters to you on that balloon.
There in Heaven with our Savior...you have everything you will ever need. There you will never experience pain. There you will never cry in sadness or hurt. There you will never feel alone or unloved or be dissapointed, discouraged or upset.
There you have love, true joy...peace, comfort...rest, smiles and every good thing. I thank God as I remember the pregnancy, as I remember you and your little heart beating inside me...I thank God that you can be with Him, experiencing all He ever had for you..and you are safe and happy and loved and cared for..
If you are not in my arms..there is no place I would rather you be than Jesus'..resting and thinking of us..singing and worshipping our God. I miss you every.single.day. but know that we are doing good my little love..our hearts are full and glad in Jesus name...we are happy...God is with us too...
I think of you often..I can't wait to see your sweet little face one day..I bet you have my smile and your daddy's eyes...I pray for you still. And I know there in heaven...you can't wait to see us..but you have everything you need...my heart smiles in that..all of me finds comfort and assurance in that simple fact..that there, you have everything you will ever need...
I love you...I love you..I love you...I will know your face when I get there one day...my baby..♥

My Beloved-Kari Jobe
You're My Beloved
You're My Bride
To sing over you is My delight
Come away with Me My love
Under My mercy
Come and wait
Till we are standing face to face
I see no stain on you
My child
You're Beautiful to Me
So Beautiful to Me
I sing over you My song of peace
Cast all your care down at My feet
Come and find your rest in Me
I'll breathe My life inside of you
I'll bear you up on eagle's wings
And hide you in the shadow of My strength
I'll take you to My quiet waters
I'll restore your soul
Come rest in Me and be made whole
You're My beloved
You're My Bride
To sing over you is my delight
Come away with me my love
I am in love with this song...it's so peaceful and loving and comforting (I know, that's a lot of 'and's') :)
But it is...take a listen to it and just allow our loving Heavenly Father to wrap you in His arms...You are His Beloved...He sings over you with joy and love...there is NO stain on you..be it from sin, pain or struggle...He see's you as his perfect and wonderful creation, His child...receive His love and mercy upon you life..allow Him to be close to you in whatever time you are going through. He is with you when you rejoice and especially when you are mourning or struggling. He never EVER leaves you...I want you to know how much He loves and cares for you. How much you are on His heart and mind...and He is always with you...just allow this to speak to your heart...to sing to your heart...to come and sit with you..and just be with you... You are HIS beloved....
Sometimes there are just these songs that so grip every tiny part of me. And this is one of them. My Pandora 'worship' station gives a random mix of worship..all great..But this song..did it. It moved me..the words are so true, the song is beautiful..I could just picture people at the alter just laying it all down and really receiving what God has for them through and with this song..
Meredith Andrews-The River
Everyone is broken and in need of a savior
So He came and was broken for the marker,
for the shamed
Still our eyes are blinded by the culture,
by the lies
We cant see that were filthy, we're fallen
and so dry
But He invites us
Can you hear Him say
He invites us hear Him call your name
Welcome to the river come drink come away come find your very life
Welcome to the river of God where your brokeness is washed away
Everywhere is the sorrow
and the pain of empty living
You can see it, look in their eyes
all the hopelessness of the world But look closer He is right there
in the midst of every fear Living water is the offer
Restoration is the call
and He invites us
Can you hear Him say
He invites us
hear Him call your name
Welcome to the river
Come drink come away come find your very life Welcome to the river of God
Where your brokeness is washed away
Welcome to the river
Come drink come away come find your very life
Welcome to the river of God
Where your brokeness is washed away
find your healing
find your freedom
in the river of God
find your healing
find your freedom
in the river of God
your healing here
your freedom here
in the river of God
your healing here
your freedom here
in the river of God
Welcome to the river
Come drink come away come find your very life
Welcome to the river of God
Where your brokeness is washed away
..washed away
Everyone is broken and in need of a savior
As you listen (video below, just the song), I pray it touches your heart..sometimes we just need that reminder that God is there to wash us clean. We can go to him, he has already invited us to meet with Him and be Saved, refreshed and renewed...gosh I just love how only Jesus can do that...God you are so good! ....I love it...
