You Are His Delight
February 1, 2015

What’s it take for man to see
A God who delights in him
Who’s smiling with arms outstretched
For those who fear Him
*
Fear means one who stands in awe
Of love that’s demonstrated
Love and forgiveness lavished
On those who’ll receive
*
Believing is the key
Knowledge is available
For those who will search
Who will hunger for the truth
Who long to know what is real
*
God never forsakes
Those who seek with their whole heart
That is a promise
This revelation is true
It has been tried and tested
*

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.”
I Believe

“I believe in
Christ,
like I believe
the
sun
not because
I can see it,
but by it
I can see
everything”
C. S. Lewis

Understanding leads to life
Knowledge will help get you there
Seeking with all of your heart
Will let the light come
Proverbs 21:16
*
I know what to seek
It is righteousness and love
It leads to prosperity
With life and honor
Relationships will flourish
Real friendships are developed
Proverbs 21:21
*
The word righteousness is not self-righteousness but it is the commitment to the best interest of the other person and justice for all.The book of Proverbs has fathered me giving counsel and insight into love, money, sex and power.
