There are always quotes, phrases, songs, and scenes
that still out in your mind. Some of
these keep ringing in our heads like one of those record players that gets
stuck. It plays over and over. Some of them are stupid or make little, but
others hold great power.
To be honest
one of the songs that has been running through my mind is Adele’s song Hello. Don’t shoot me, but I like Adele. Now, let me move on.
Another song
that has been running through my mind the last week is from Jeremy Camp titled Same Power. Here are some of the words:
…I can walk
Down this
dark and painful road
I can face
Every fear
of the unknown
I can hear
All God's
children singing out
We will not
be overtaken
We will not
be overcome
The same
power that rose Jesus from the grave
The same
power that commands the dead to wake
Lives in
us, lives in us
The same
power that moves mountains when He speaks
The same
power that can calm a raging sea
Lives in
us, lives in us
He lives in us, lives in us…
That is a song
about power, and it is also some powerful truth. I love the truth of the song because it is a
fact that the same power, strong and filling, lives in each person who seeks,
pursues and lives for God.
Here are a few
of the verses that have been on my mind the last few weeks, and I pray this
song and these verses that have run through my head will inspire you too.
John 13:35
NASB
"By
this
all
men
will know
that you are My disciples,
if
you have
love
for one
another."
John 1:14 NASB
And
the Word
became
flesh,
and dwelt
among
us, and we saw
His glory,
glory
as of the only
begotten
from the Father,
full
of grace
and truth.
Philippians 2:15
NASB
so
that you will prove
yourselves to be blameless
and innocent,
children
of God
above
reproach
in the midst
of a crooked
and perverse
generation,
among
whom
you appear
as lights
in the world,
Therefore,
put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in
the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm.
James 4:6 NASB
But
He gives
a greater
grace.
Therefore
it says,
"GOD
IS OPPOSED
TO THE PROUD,
BUT GIVES
GRACE
TO THE HUMBLE."
Matthew 23:11
NASB
That
is enough for today. Have an awesome
week!
People I am praying for:
Pray for Donna Pratt as she recovers
from surgery and waits for results.
Praise the Lord for tests results Josh Hill got during his cancer
battle, and pray for him as more treatments are happening this week. Pray for LD and Retha Oaks son Dean as he broke
his leg and has had surgery. Dean and
his family live in Russian, and it is tough being away from family.
