NEW YEAR'S POEM


NEW VISION

See with new eyes
Hear with new ears
Heal broken hearts
With new love

Feel with new faith
Fight with new spirit
Hold frightened hearts
With new strength

Watch with new vision
Touch with compassion
Help desperate hearts
Find new direction

Shine with new light
Share with enthusiasm
Halt wayward hearts
With holiness

Reminds me of a song we once sang:

🎼Holiness unto Jesus

🎶Holiness that's what I long for
🎶Holiness that's what I need🎵
🎶Holiness🎶
That's what you want from me🎵

Time to start singing again! 🎤

Happy New Year, 2017!

LORD OF THE HEART

LORD OF MY HEART

Lord of our hearts,
Hold on to us, please;
Take our so-selfish art,
In exchange for your peace.

Lord of the heart,
Break us, if You must;
Conquer the rebel part,
That will not accept love.

Lord of the new heart,
Free us in Truth-born Faith;
Win this hopeless world war,
Please give us more holy grace.

Love us, dearest Lord Jesus,
Baptize us with who You are;
Our Great God and Friend,
You are Lord of the heart.

UNBROKEN

I've been there before,
In the Glory of the Lord;
The eyes of my heart,
Awakened!


I have raised holy hands,
To the Throne of the Lamb; 
My knees on holy ground,
Before Him!

I have seen a great light,
Split the shadow of night;
The tears of my heart,
Have fallen.

Just a heartbeat away,
There begins a new day: 
In the Presence of Jesus,
Unbroken!

"I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "to prosper you and not to harm." Jeremiah 29:11

KNOW THE HOLY


(1)  What comes to our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us. Low views of God destroy the gospel for all who hold them. A god begotten in the shadows of a fallen heart will quite naturally be no true likeness of the true God. - A. W. Tozer

WE ARE RISEN

We are RISEN
We are seated
In heavenly realms 
We are sealed,
We are set RIGHT;
In the unbreakable
Promises of GOD. 
We are REDEEMED,
We are saved forever;
By GRACE through
Faith in JESUS. 
We are rescued,
We are adopted in Christ;
We are given new hearts,
At the foot of The CROSS.

HELLO HEAVEN

This is love, not that we love God, but that
He loves us AND gave Himself to save us.

TRUE LOVE

Say so long to self,
True life is in Jesus.
Say goodbye to Hell,
Have faith in God's Son.

You were made for Heaven,
A place with your new name;
Decide if you'll survive or die,
God's will is for you to abide.

We were made for Heaven,
Heaven is our real Home;
Home is always calling us,
Back where we belong.

True love is in the giving,
Give and it will be given;
Put your faith in Jesus,
Say hello to Heaven.

NEW LIFE

NEW LIFE

We give God our shame,
Christ gives us His NAME;
We give Jesus our pain,
He gives us NEW LIFE!

We give God our drama,
He gives us His PEACE;
We give Christ our grief,
He gives us NEW LIFE!

We give God our heart,
He gives His PROMISE;
We give Jesus our strife,
He gives us NEW LIFE!

We give God our fears,
He gives us HIS GRACE;
We give Christ our death,
He gives us NEW LIFE!

We were buried with him by baptism into death,
in order that, just as Christ was raised from the
dead by the glory of the Father, we too
might walk in newness of life. ESV

START AGAIN

"It may startle us to learn that "following" is a New Testament word used to cover the idea of an established habit of obedience to the commandments of Christ." - A.W.TOZER
"You must be born again..."


START AGAIN

The time has come:
Take your focus off
the world; turn your
eyes toward Jesus,
and see again!

The time has come:
Take your focus off
more stuff; turn your
mind toward Heaven,
and think again!

The time has come:
Take your focus off
yourself; turn your
heart toward others,
and love again!

The time has come:
Invest your faith in
Jesus Christ; turn your
soul toward His Cross,
and start again!

START AGAIN

The time has come,
Take your focus off 
the world; Turn your
Eyes toward Jesus...
See again!

The time has come,
Take your focus off 
more stuff; Turn your
Mind toward Heaven...
Think again!

The time has come:
Invest your faith in
Jesus Christ; Turn your
Soul toward His Cross...
Start again!

The time has come,
Take your focus off
Yourself; Turn your
Heart toward others...
Love again!

Colossians 3:2 ► NIV, NLT, ESV

NIV: Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.

NLT: Think about the things of heaven, not the things of earth.

ESV: Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

John 3:3 "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again."

REMEMBER GOD: THROUGH CHRIST



REMEMBER GOD

When the world spins its weary webs,
And works its worst to confuse your head;
Remember God works all things for good
Through Christ who shed His blood for you.

When the devil lays down deadly deceit,

And sets the same old traps your heart won't see;
Remember God has made a way for you to win,
Through Christ who broke the power of sin.

When the news says life is out of control,
And sinners conspire to steal your soul;
Remember God our Father holds your place,
Through Christ who saved the world by grace.

When the storms of life are constant and fierce,
Come by faith to Christ whose strength stops fear;
Remember God gave this world His Love and Light,
So we'd live forever in Heaven with Him thru Christ.
