The Great I AM......

Time and time again throughout the Bible. God says I AM the God who saved you,
I AM the God who brought you out of....

Do we as Gods people need reminding of what God has done for us just like God did in the Bible.
Below are some direct quotes from the bible as well as a few additional ones I have included.

I AM your shield
I AM God Almighty
I AM who I AM
I AM God
I AM the Lord your God
I AM the first, and I AM the last
I AM your husband

These others refer to Jesus in the NT
I AM with you always
I AM the bread of life
I AM the light of the world
I AM the gate for the sheep
I AM God's son
I AM the ressurection and the life
I AM the way, truth and the life
I AM the Father and he is in me.

I AM the God who has blessed you
I AM the God who rescued you
I AM the God who has forgiven you

God is worthy to be praised.....
What would God say to you to remind you of what he has done for you?
What would cause you to lift his name and praise him?

Safe in my arms.....


Safe in my arms

I will never leave you
I will never forsake you
I will stay here always
You are safe in my arms
I will carry you
When times are tough
When it’s all too much
You are safe in my arms
I will protect you
Side by side we go
We face things together
You are safe in my arms
I will be everywhere
When you are up, most of all when you are not
When there is on one else to care
You are safe in my arms
I am in you, with you
And around you always
I will never leave you
You are safe in my arms

Forever
I have a plan, a perfect plan
For you and me for all eternity
It’s so exciting, it’s amazing
What you and I could do
Your gave your life to me
And I will use it to the full
Just stay with me
And stick close by
I will see you through
I see you now
You have come so far
Walk with me and talk with me
We have so far yet to go
Don’t look back, no regrets
Just learn and live each day
Open your ears and hear me speak to you
I have a plan, a perfect plan
For you and me for all eternity
It’s so exciting, it’s amazing
What you and I could do

Your Call

I hear your call
I hear your voice
It says draw near to me
Come to me and find rest

I hear your call
I hear your voice
It says stand up and move
Speak to them about me
I hear your call
I hear your voice
It says to love them all
As I have loved you

I hear your call
I hear your voice
It says don’t worry
I am with you
I hear your call
I hear your voice
It says pain will come
Things will be hard
I hear your call
I hear your voice
It says follow me
Do my will today

I hear your call
I hear your voice
It says be my hands
And be my feet

I hear your call
I hear your voice
It says I will speak
To them through you

I hear your call
I hear your voice
Do you obey or turn away?

Expand me


Expand me

Like a balloon, you fill me up
With your spirit, your love
As I grow and get bigger with you
Continue to fill me up till I overflow
Expand my vision
Expand my skills
Expand my heart
Expand my hands
So I can serve you
Like a balloon I grow and grow with you
I give my fear to you, whatever’s next
What can I do
Expand me
Don’t let me pop
just keep expanding me
I live to serve you

My daily prayer......
Face full
Shine on me Lord a new way on this day
Grant me blessings as I go your way
Guide me on the path so I don’t stray
Keep me on the straight and narrow always
Reveal yourself to me O Lord I pray
Show your face; walk with me all the way
Give me a face full of your glory on this day
So people look at me and see you always

Darkness

For all those people that need encouraging to keep going, to persevere through the bad or dark times, Keep going.

Darkness
As I walk this road, a long and windy road
Darkness sets in and the light diminishes
Like a candle being extinguished
or a torch slowly fading as the darkness overwhelms it
Fear plays on my mind as my eyes see things in the shadows
My mind casts back to why I started this journey
And the fears disappear
Things seemed so right back there
In the light, but now doubt plagues me

Did I do the right thing?
Was this really want God intended for me?
I must keep walking this road
Confusion sets in, I lose my bearings
Which way have I come?
What challenges am I yet to face
I cling onto the vision that sets me on this road

No one else is on the road
No guidance, no comfort
Just loneliness in the darkness
Faith tells me God is with me
On this road, that pushes me forward
Into the blackness
I know God is there,
but he remains silent in my prayers

We walk on together, in silence but persistent
One day this darkness will vanish
The light will penetrate and chase the darkness away
Like walking out or a dark tunnel into the blinding light
That day, that hope keeps me going
Encourages me to push through the darkness along this road
However long it may be I will keep going
I won’t quit, I just want to do it.
