A Place To Go

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My praise I lift unto the Lord,

Rejoicing in His grace,

For He, who formed the earth and sky,

Has made for me, a place.

 

My praise I lift unto the Lord,

Who called me by my name,

And, by His mercy, I’m redeemed

And washed free of my shame.

 

My praise I lift unto the Lord,

That all the world may know,

When I am called to leave this life,

I have a place to go.

 

John 14:2-3

In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

I Felt the Peace

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I felt a weight lift from my heart

When I let it all go.

I realized nothing mattered

Beyond what I now know.

 

The sun will rise, but also set,

And bad comes with the good,

But by faith we can walk through both

Still being who we should.

 

For, though our plans so often fail,

It’s His plan that’s in place,

And He has filled His plans for us

With His unending grace.

 

Now I’m at peace within each storm

Knowing, despite travail,

That nothing matters quite as much

As love that does not fail.

 

Psalm 117:2

For great is his steadfast love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord!

Mercy, Grace, and Prayer

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I’m working my way through the pain

And trying not to share.

As others carry their own grief,

They don’t need my despair.

 

As they lift burdens of worry,

What they need is my care

And not an extra dose of pain,

Because I’ve some to spare.

 

Oh Lord, help us to help others

Carry the pain they bear.

Even if all that we can give

Is mercy, grace, and prayer.

 

Hebrews 4:16

Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
