A Faith like Abraham's

How many times have we asked God for things we want and expect them to be delivered? We think, "God, if you love me so.. why don't good things happen? Why aren't my prayers answered? Why are all these crap coming my way now?"

Is it not incredibly self-centred and bratty of us to ask of that?

I pray for a transformation of heart and mind, so that I can ask God for what He wants of me. For Him to show me, go before me and soften the path, guide me as I follow His path for me obediently. So that I can surrender everything at His altar, so that I can enjoy His peace and love everyday while serving Him.

".. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen"

Hebrews 11:1

I pray for faith that we may stay on His path, for the patience to pull through the equipping that is to come. That we will be able to hear his confirmation so clearly, that we may go as soon as He calls us to.

I pray for a faith like Abraham's, who got out of his comfort zone and set up home in a foreign land just because God called him to.

"... for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and architect is God."

Hebrews 11:10

When your life goals are in line with God's plan for you, things will simply fall into place.

Love Song For A Saviour

In open fields of wild flowers
She breathes the air flies away
She thanks her Jesus for the daisies and the roses
In no simple language
Someday she'll understand the meaning of it all

He's more than the laughter
Or the stars in the heavens
As close as a heartbeat
Or a song on her lips
Someday she'll trust him
And learn how to see him
Someday he'll call her
And she will come running
Fall in his arms, the tears will fall down
And she'll pray

I want to fall in love with you

Sitting silent wearing sunday best
The sermon echoes through the walls
A great salvation through it
Goes to the people who stare into nowhere
Can't feel the chains on their souls

He's more than the laughter
Or the stars in the heavens
As close as a heartbeat
Or a song on her lips
Someday we'll trust him
And learn how to see him
Someday he'll call us
And we will come running
Fall in his arms
The tears will fall down and we'll pray

I want to fall in love with you

Seems to easy to call you savior
Not close enough to call you a god
So as I sit and think of
Words I can mention to show my devotion

I want to fall in love with you
