Your hand, Lord, rests upon me,
To support and to maintain,
To love, encourage, and chastise.
However I may falter,
Your hand fulfills the promise
That I am not alone.

Are You Insecure?
Are you feeling useless?
Are you insecure?
Do you feel unworthy,
Insignificant, or used up?
Do you allow these feelings
To rob you of God’s abundance?
Struggling with such doubts and questions,
Do you feel unlovable?
Do you ever ask yourself,
“How can God forgive me?
How can He use me for His purpose?”
God’s desire is for your good,
To bless you in your living.
Love itself defines His being.
He will never cease to love,
For that would be a lie.
He can not love you more,
Nor will He love you less
Than sending Christ, His only Son
To die on Calvary’s cross.
Based not upon your worthiness
But on His own, unchanging self,
He always offers hope, and peace.
And His unconditional love.
His unquenchable mercy
Will always be available.
So, be transformed by His Holy love,
For nothing else can take His place.
Build relationship with God
Within your heart, your soul.
Believe God’s Word, not your feelings
And be certain of His love.
Let your faith free you from doubts,
Then, be fruitful unto Him.

In Balance
You calm me down when I’m upset;
You cheer me up when I’m downcast.
You keep me, Lord, in perfect balance.
When You are all and I am nil;
When I obey Your every wish,
Then, Lord, am I in perfect balance.
from Conversations With God, page 91

Your Church
May we, Your church,
Be a light into the darkness,
Be encouragement to others,
Be a guide into the Word.
But we, Your church,
Have become at one with darkness,
Need encouragement ourselves,
Need to delve into Your Word.
Lord, help Your church,
And renew in us our purpose;
In community to serve You,
To acknowledge You as Lord!

A New Story
Let’s tell a brand new story.
I’m all too familiar with the old,
The one where I betrayed you!
I recall the times I turned away,
Times I refused to listen.
Let’s shape a brand new story,
In which I’ll refuse to betray you!
With your help, I know we can,
For you, O Lord, can do anything--
If only I would listen!
