Love will carry you...

Am I at the point of no improvement? 
What of the death I still dwell in?
I try to excel, but I feel no movement. 
Can I be free of this unreleasable sin?
Never underestimate my Jesus,
You're telling me that there's no hope, I'm telling you you're wrong.
Never underestimate my Jesus,
When the world around you crumbles, He will be strong. 


Gah, life can be so difficult sometimes, as I've been finishing up this quarter at college especially. So many things have been afflicting me on all sides, and then in my scripture reading today I found this...

Yet He is my strength and my salvation, and my defense, therefore I shall not be moved. ~Psalm 62:2

 The Lord is my strength and salvation, what am I concerned with down here? Cannot the God of all creation conquer it? Of course he can!

Silly me...everything that has been happening in my life, everything I've been upset or worried over, it all counts as nothing in comparison to the importance of Christ. Absolutely nothing.

Behold the fowls of the heaven, for they sow not, neither reap, nor carry into the barns, yet your heavenly father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? ~Matthew 6:26


This principle is one that I keep having to learn, and I write it here for everyone to see:

A life spent worrying over the things of this world is a wasted life, for you cannot glorify God when you are concentrated on yourself.  Don't waste your life, live for God, and for him alone. 


He will take care of you, He will take care of me, and I don't want to waste one more minute, one more second worrying, I want all of my time to be spent glorifying Him.

Lift me up Lord, turn my ashes into flames that burn for you.



I searched for love,
When the night came,
And it closed in.
I was alone,
But you found me,
Where I was hiding. 
Now i'll never ever be the same,
It was the sweetest voice that called my name, 
Saying, you're not alone,
For I am here. 
Let me wipe away your every fear.
My love, I've never left your side,
I have seen you through the darkest night.
I'm the one who's loved you all your life
Faithful and True, forever.
My love will carry you.
