Not till everyone has heard!

Do not let us stop singing, praising, and telling about You Lord till the whole world hears. Let Your sleeping giant rise and catch the the demons off guard. May You be our battle cry Lord. Let us set the captives free.
Amen

A choice, a true friend

A girl is having trouble at home. Her parents verbally abuse her; she goes looking for the love she is not getting at home elsewhere. At school, the popular guy sees her weakness and makes his move. She falls for him and his talk about how he can give her what she wants. One of her friends sees the choice that she is making and warns her not to fall for this guy. He says that the guy is taking advantage of you. The girl yells at her friend saying, "You are wrong! What do you know about it anyway!?" The next day she comes to school saying that he hit her. The friend held out his hand saying, "You can still change your mind about this guy." However, the girl is to prideful to admit she is wrong and again yells at her friend, calling him names. A few days later she comes back to school saying she is pregnant. The friend is disappointed in her, yet he still holds out his hand saying, "God loves you. Change your way, this is not the right path." Again she says no. That night the popular guy calls the girl saying that he is through the relationship and over her. She goes to the friend crying saying I have been wrong and a fool. Instead of walking away and saying, "told you so!", he holds out his hand and says, "God loves you and forgives you. Your friends, your real friends care for you." That day she gave he life to God. He loved her like Jesus loved him. God's love can change more than just ourselves.

Imagine

I can only imagine a small part of what it will be like before you Lord.

Gods love is extravigant

Your love is extravagant. Your friendship, intimate. I dance to the rhythm of your grace. I am in the arms of Christ for his love has covered my sin. You have captured my heart. I have not known a love greater than yours, oh God.

The Voice of Truth

When we fail, the world will mock us, but the voice of truth will tell us something different. He says, "Keep going and never give up, for this is for My glory!" I pray that God gives me strength through my day even when I fail.

We can't do it on our own.

When we try to make the world our friend and do things on our own we will ultimately fail. We may succeed for a small amount of time but will fall. When say that we our a Christian and yet follow our own will. We drag God's name through the mud. Yet he is still there holding out his hand. All we have to do is let go.

What if we prayed?

What if His people prayed?  What if at school we prayed with our friends and not be afraid to show others that we love God.  What if instead of just praying about things that affect us we pray for others.  The simple yet, privileged gift to communicate with God can be a huge example.  I challenge you to try this and see the result you get.  If you already do this, then I say Amen. 

He is always there.

Even when we lose something or we are down he will whisper through the rain and say, "I am with you."
