This is where you will find Me
as you seek me with all Your heart.
I am in You and you are in Me.
Your were My heart from the very start
You are Mine, We are intertwined
You were created in My image
I Am so , so you could be
Perfectly united that’s , My plan
I have given You My heart
Do you understand ?
You are living in a world
that never seems to stop,
But you and I we live hand in hand
You and I share the same heart
You and I we'll never depart.
You were My heart from the very start.
You are Mine, We are intertwined
My beloved I loved you in the begining
I know one day very soon
you will stop and rest from all your spinning
and when you take time and quite your heart
And say to Me Daddy God I need more of You
I will say I Am here, I'm waiting on You
So my beloved child I Am deep deep deep
within your heart, you my beloved I will never depart.
I say to you I love you child ,come rest a while
I Am waiting for you to want my love to grow in you even more
There is so much I want to give you
But first you must stop and listen
come to Me and only me, I will tell you everything
Be quite my dear one and simply listen,
There's a deeper place in Me you will be
You must first want to arrive and recieve
everything that is placed in Me, for you to see.
So I ask you this my child, be quite be still and listen.
If you want Me I Am here .

I am in You and you are in Me.
You must first want to arrive and recieve.

Words were given to Michelle Combs
Inspired from The One Who live in me
The Holy Spirit

We all must learn to yawp.
we MUST awaken the passion,

I Am


I Am

I AM the Maker of the Heavens
I AM the Bright and Morning Star
I AM the Breath of all Creation
Who always was
And is to come

I AM the One who walked on water
I AM the One who calmed the seas
I AM the Miracles and Wonders
So come and see
And follow Me
You will know

chorus:
I AM the Fount of Living Water
The Risen Son of Man
The Healer of the Broken
And when you cry
I AM your Savior and Redeemer
Who bore the sins of man
The Author and Perfecter
Beginning and the End
I AM

I AM the Spirit deep inside you
I AM the Word upon your heart
I AM the One who even knew you
Before your birth
Before you were

chorus

Bridge:
Before the Earth (I AM)
The universe (I AM)
In every heart (I AM)
Oh, where you are (I AM)
The Lord of Lords (I AM)
The King of Kings (I AM)
The Holy Lamb (I AM)
Above all things

chorus:
Yes, I AM Almighty God, your Father
The Risen Son of Man
The Healer of the Broken
And when you cry
I AM Your Savior and Redeemer
Who bore the sins of man
The Author and Perfecter
Beginning and the End
I AM

Testify To Love


Testify To Love

All the colors of the rainbow
All of voices of the wind
Every dream that reaches out
That reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story
Every star in every sky
Every corner of creation lives to testify

For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a whitness in the silences when words are not enough
With every breath I take I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love

From the mountains to the valleys
From the rivers to the sea
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to kingdom come
All the Hope in every heart will speak what love has done.

~Avalon

Remember Me


Remember Me

Remember me
In a Bible cracked and faded by the years
Remember me
In a santuary filled with silent prayers

CHORUS:
And age to age
And heart to heart
Bound by grace and peace
Child of wonder, Child of God
I'll remember you
Remember Me

Remember me
When the color of the sunset fills the sky
Remember me
When you pray and the tears of joy
fall from your eyes

CHORUS

Remember me
When the children leave
their Sunday school with smiles
Remember me
When they're old enough to teach
Old enough to preach
Old enough to leave

CHORUS

Age to age and heart to heart
Child of wonder child of God

Remember me

Age to age and heart to heart
Child of wonder child of God

Originally Posted by brinny View Post
I almost died. It was the winter of 2002. Thought I’d surely die from the coughing. Had to sleep sitting up. The sickness jolted me from my fury with God.

Yes I said it. I was furious with God. I hated Him and I told Him so. I had lost my job, I was in serious debt, I was alone, I didn’t know how I was gonna pay the mortgage. What would happen if I lost my house. No, I’m not going with family….I’d rather die first….

Then I got sick. I got sicker. I couldn’t eat or drink without spasms of coughing that literally took my breath away. Jarring me out of my rage with God was fear. Was I going to die? Like this? I was just going to lay here helpless until the inevitable happened? Was this it?

To distract myself I turned on the tv. Every morning I warched these programs that hammered on about God's mercy, grace, and His love for us. The one I became riveted to was about children and their needs for clean water, food, and medical supplies. They were dying. Somehow, it touched me. I cared more about those children living than about my outrage with God and my own fear of dying.

God can be aggravating that way. He rips my job and all its underpinnings from me, my independence, my 'identity', my self-sufficiency, shakes me and scares me to my very core with illness, and then wallops me in my brokenness with a heaping helping of heart-wrenching 'caring' about these children.

He knocks me flat to get my attention. And He did. He reminds me that He's bigger than me. And He is. He revealed to me that I have a future and a hope. And I do.

I didn't die. He showed me how to really live.
Amen brinny!! There are many things that come along in our pilgrimage here. Things that knock us off our feet and that we don't understand. But, it's like you said just now in this post, when we think we become
self-sufficient God will allow us to be knocked off our feet long enough
to remember our need of Him...God bless dear one
