Father Lord, Are You SERIOUS?

This is my praise to you before the rain.
Yes, this is me, thanking you so sincerely cos I can hear the sound
Of the abundance of it.
In my spirit
I can feel it
In my soul
I can sense it
In my heart.
I can see it
Father Lord, Are you serious?
Of course you must be
For why else will you show me
So today, now, though its all just words.....
I praise and magnify your name.
You alone are worthy of my thanks and adoration
And I give it to you joyfully
Cos you are ALWAYS serious about your children
And I am so seriously glad that I am one of them!
Hallelujah!

Somehow Lord, I understand

Dear Heavenly Father
You know, I had such high hopes for 2010
I think I told you before that I had this tingly feeling you were up to something
In my mind I had cooked up all the possibilities.
Yes, God was going to do something special in my life.
The lives of my loved ones.

And indeed you were. Indeed you have
But NOT in anyway way shape or form is what you are doing
Close to what I was thinking. No, not in anyway
But you know what Lord?
Somehow, I get it.
Somehow, I understand

In the midst of the crunch, you gave me peace
In the face of the treachery, you preserved my heart's health
In the grips of the challenges, you give me strength
Yes, at the end of the day, you saved my face
At the end of the day, you opened my eyes
At the end of the day, you saved my life

Now tell me, are these not 'special things'?
If you can do these things for me, these things that money cannot buy, that man cannot give me
Then why should I worry about all those 'cheap' things I was cooking?
Forgive me Father, now I get it.
Yes now I understand.
And I thank you so much
I love you so much
I praise you with all my heart!
Please let my thanks be acceptable in your eyes and ears.

For Inner Peace, I Thank You Lord!

The wind is howling
The storm is raging
Yet in my heart, I have inner peace
Thank you Father, my Jehovah Shalom

The pot is empty
The vat is dry
Yet in my heart, I have inner peace
Thank your Jesus, my Prince of Peace

Life seems so uncertain
What next? What direction?
I don't need to know for sure
For the Holy Spirit, the one who will guide me
Into all things, He is in my heart
Giving me inner peace.

Father, I thank you. In the name of Jesus Christ
I thank you.

Lord, I Am Standing!

Father, Lord, thank you for this day
Thank you for just letting me be here
Thank you for taking care of all my needs
Thank you for letting me know that you are near.
Thank you for letting me know that I am yours.
Always.

Today has been a bit hard but through it all
I have encouraged myself with the knowledge of
Who you are to me
What you mean to me
Where you have taken me
Why I can stand so full of peace.

Yes, Lord today, I confirm to you that
I am standing on your promises
And I am not shaking.

Praise be to your name!
For grace to stand when the wind blows!
Thank you Lord. Thank you Jesus! Thank you Comforter and Encourager!
Thank you Divine Three in One!
