The Father’s Touch

January 24, 2015

*

What do I yearn for
Where does my heart go when still
I will seek your face
When you appear I’ll see your face
I have set my heart on you

*

My weaknesses still cry out
The sadness-es all around
So many lost in nothing
My inner soul weeps

*

The little sparrow
Finds a place to rest and sleep
God knows what is happening
I’ll praise His greatness
Enter into communion
With my Father who loves me

*

You’re my sun and shield
Light to find my way today
Protection from enemies
Angels to attend
To all those who will trust you
Who seek you with all their heart

*

Your power’s displayed
You do the impossible
When you are trusted
You surprise with your answer
Light comes, love’s demonstrated

*

Trust takes away fear
Anxieties are dispelled
I’m surprised by joy
Your living presence reveals
A Father in touch with you

*

There is no trouble
That he does not understand
And promises to take action
Of all the voices
I can choose who I will trust
A gift from the Father’s touch

*

I have fallen many times
Failed to trust, done it my way
Suffered the consequences
Felt desperation

*

I arise with His Spirit
Renewed by Eternal Love
Accepted, forgiveness given
Live today in peace

*

Reflections after reading Psalm 24, 54, 84, 114 and Proverbs 24. Sarah Young speaks to the promises in the pain in her book “Jesus Calling.”

Dreams and Angels

January 11, 2014

~

What do you do with your dreams

Have you seen your dreams come true

God spoke to men in their dreams

I’ll reflect on that

~

Two groups heard an angel

They both came as a warning

Evil’s on the horizon

The Magi and Joseph

~

What’s been your experience

We choose not to talk about

Dreams that  cause us to wonder

I think we should listen

~

I hear the warning

Make plans to escape the test

Pay attention now

What’s happening around me

Who can interpret these dreams

~

First, I ask God to help me

He promises to give wisdom

I have his divine nature

His clear promises

~

We escape the corruption

When we ask him to come near

Focus on the promises

Reflect on His love

~

The angels will come

And minister to our hearts

That’s why he sent them to us

I’ll train to listen

~

Read out loud and reflect on Matthew 2.

~

“Are not the angels all (servants) ministering spirits, sent out in the service (of God for the assistance) of those who are to inherit salvation?”   Hebrews 1: 14 (Amp)  Salvation is His healing Presence.

~

“His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.  Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption of this dark world caused by evil desires.”  Peter – II Peter 1: 3-4

~

“Devote yourselves to prayer; being watchful and thankful.”

Paul – Colossians 4: 2

~

“Let be and be still, and know — recognize and understand — that I am God.  I will be exalted among the nations!  I will be exalted in the earth.”  David  Psalm 46: 10 (Amp)
