At Rest in Adonai

You are a rock.
Your word is true.
Your promises stand forever.
You have told me something, I hold it close to my heart.
I will see it come about, for you have spoken it.


You alone I will extol!
With my voice I will lift up thanksgiving to you,
For all that you have done for me!

Though the enemy encamps about my house;
I will not fear, for you watch over me.
To keep me safe and all that you have given me.
God is for me; who can be against me?

Away from me you evil oppressors!
There is no room in my life for you!
I am His alone; the one who bought me with his life!
The lover of my soul; away all else I say,away!

Swoop down at his command; hosts of heaven.
Charge the oppressor! Defeat the enemy!
Secure the home of his beloved  hand maiden!
Let the Glory of the Lord come down!

I love you LORD!

I Found Someone

I believe someone (or someones)  out there need to read this .

I Found Someone

I needed someone to hold me.

I found someone.

I needed someone to promise and change my world.

I found someone.

I needed someone to tell me they would never leave me.

I found someone.

I needed someone to tell me they loved me more then life itself.

I found someone.

I was so happy.

I found someone.

I wasn’t alone anymore.

I found someone.

No more cold and lonely nights. No more battles left to fight by myself.

I found someone.

I have finally run into the man of my dreams.

I found someone.

Then one day ~

I needed someone to listen,

I got a cold shoulder.

I needed a hug,

I got, “I don’t feel like it right now, go away.”

I said, “I will settle for just your soft touch.”

I got, “I don’t have the time right now.”

I said, “I love you still.”

One day ~

I needed a friend.

He didn’t want one.

I needed some time together.

He couldn’t make some.

I needed his blessing.

He gave me cruel words instead.

I said, “I forgive you.”

One day ~

I cried and cried and cried.

I needed someone.

I had given my heart to him.

But he was not there for me.

I cried and cried and cried.

I thought I had found someone.

“Oh Precious Lord! What have I done?”

Then one day ~

He found me

I needed someone to hold me.

He found me.

I needed someone to promise and change my world.

He found me and my world has never been the same since.

I needed someone to tell me they would never leave me.

He found me and has never left my side.

I needed someone to tell me they loved me more then life itself.

He found me and with his death proved it so.

I am so happy.

He found me.

I am not alone anymore.

He found me.

No more cold and lonely nights. No more battles left to fight by myself.

He found me.

I have finally run into the man of my dreams.

He found me.

Then one day ~

I needed someone to listen.

He was right there waiting for me to come to him.

I needed a hug.

His presence filled the air.

I said to him, “I will settle for just your soft touch.”

He said, “I want you to have much more.”

I said, “I love you.”

One day ~

I needed a friend.

He was a friend that stuck closer than a brother.

I needed some time together.

He said, “I’ve been waiting my love.”

I needed his blessing.

He reassured me that I already had it.

I said, “I love you. I’m so glad you found me.”

I found someone.

The man of my dreams,

His name is Jesus.

Isaiah 54:5” ….For your Maker is your husband…”

OURS IS NOT TO QUESTION WHY

Ours is not to question why

It is ours but to obey 

Obedience is far better than sacrifice

In the dessert I walk today

I trust alone in His unfailing love

Lead by the light of His word

Eyes fixed on the prize straight ahead

Ears only on HIS voice I have heard

I see the storm brewing in my path

I must continue on my plight

For I know what my Master has told me

And I walk by faith - not by sight

Everything in me wants to turn back

To escape this dessert I'm in

Lord please help me through this

Deliver me from all sin

Ours is not to question why

It is ours but to obey 

Obedience brings God's blessings

His hand of deliverance our way

The River of God

I want to live here

The river of God

flowing down from your sanctuary

where I find you on your throne. 

This is where you are worshiped - day and night without ceasing.

I see this river in my dreams

I stand while the river fills the lake around me.

I am led into the river, deeper  and deeper,

until I can not stand.

Surrounded by forests of lavish greenery all around me 

crystal shimmering clear water

I am suddenly at the foot of your throne

Holy fear is not adequate to describe how I feel  

Peace - like heavenly rain drops fall upon my soul

Healing melts away my pain

Completely immersed in your love 

All my sorrow washed away

In your arms - at rest

In the river of God
