Are You Grieving Lord ?

What's Your grievance today, my Lord?
What is it that's breaking Your heart?
Is it poverty that's seen globally
Or is it injustice and inequality
Or the complacency of today's culture?

Or is it us, the Christians
who have let you down so badly?
We, who have become so busy running Your work
with our own plans and agenda
And having less or no time to sit with You
to know Your heart and to follow Your guidance.

You sent Your disciples, two by two
to cities and villages to preach
with no certainty of place to stay
no provision of cash or clothes to take
That was Your way
the Kingdom way of teaching
to trust and obey.

Are You saddened by the way we minister
the way we live and the choices we make
Have we put You aside and run to You only
when we are in trouble?
Have we lost our sight to see Your point of view
Have we lost the power to heal the sick and cast out the devil?
O Lord, have we lost the annointing of the Spirit
to be the light and salt of the earth?

Strike us Lord, if You need to
Strike us in Your mercy
Bring us back to the altar to repent
And to renew our committments and serve You the way You desire.
Empower us Lord, to walk in victory
And to be the Salt and Light to the world around us!

Holy and Beloved (Colossions 3:12)

What is this Lord?
What is this?
Apostle Paul called us,those who put their trust in You,
Holy and Beloved!
Yes, that's what He called us.

Oh, how wonderful that sounds
to be called, the elect of God
And how esteemed are we to be
called with such honor.

Yes, the honor comes with some demands
Demand to love and to forgive
Demand to bear with each other
and to put on the cloak of
humility, kindness and patience.

If prayer and praise become our daily offering
and the Word of God, our daily bread
Wisdom and knowledge would guide us through
And life no more becomes a battle ground to walk through.

Oh how wonderful to be called, the elect of God
How awesome would be to live Holy and loved
If you and I could live as Christ preached
why need preachers, and why need evangelinsts?
That's our call my friends, that's our service to the Lord
To live by faith and to witness in love and power!

In His Presence

In His presence, I stand awed
In His presence, I feel so secure
In His presence, I want nothing else
Oh,in His presence, I simply become a child

How foolish can I ever be
how wasted my life could be
if I choose not to be in His presence
but spent hours on other things
that prove to be worthless at the end.

Vanity, vanity, all is vanity
So, sang King Solomon, the wisest
who had it all for power, pleasure and treasure
Yet, contentment was out of his reach
until he came to his conclusion
It's only in our desire to seek God's presence
And in our delight to do His
fulfillment is guaranteed for sure.

Help Me to See with Your Perspective

Lord,

Help me to see things from Your point of view
Otherwise I'm prone to ask why, why and why?
I'll be blind for sure, if You don't give me the sight
Sight to see from Your perspective, not mine.

If I see as You do, I'll truly start to live
for I'll learn to see the silver lining even in the darkest hour
When everything else seems so hopeless
And victory seems far away
I would stand unmoved and fear no more.

That is the key to Abundant life
that's the secret to have Peace and Joy
If only I could see life from the Kingdom's point of view
And have the heart to love as You want me to love.
And Joy and Peace would sure to follow me around.

Lord, I'm Nothing Without You

Lord, I worth nothing without You
And I don't desire to be anything without you
Who I am and where I am today
I owe You to Your grace, my Lord.

Life could have taken a wrong turn for me
If You haven't showed up in my life
Still waters and green pasteurs You've taken me to at times
Dark valleys and dry deserts you allowed me to walk through other times
Yet, I could always sense Your presence near me
whispering a word of comfort or lending a hand for support

So, today, if I hear the thunder of troubles drawing near
Or thistles of worry keep me down
I tell myself to look back on the past and to remember
that You are in charge,and not me

Oh Lord, where I'd be today without You
And who I would have become if not for Your grace
So, I extol You for choosing me to be Your own
and showing me the way to the Father's throne.

What a Beautiful world, what an amzing love!

What a great Almighty God, the El Elyon
who He is, He was and who will be
in His mighty power, in His agape love
And in His justice and faithfulness.
I will magnify the Lord with thanksgiving
I will praise Him for who He is forever

In much love for us,who are mere human beings
He created such a beautiful world to live
with fruits and flowers of all kind and color
a vast blue sky above and an azur oceon around
with schools of fish and mighty sharks to rule the sea
Birds to sing and lions to roar
with sheeps to give wool
and cows to provide milk
herbs for cure and streams to quench thirst
Oh, how much love God must have had
When He made the world for you and me

Oh, what a beautiful world God made for us with so much care
And how thankful you and I need to be to such an awesome God
Yes, I will praise,
And I will thank
for the gift of this world and for the love of my God!
