Our Father God! How Awesome is Your Name!


 “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, 
I will be exalted in the earth.” 
 Psalm 46:10

OUR FATHER GOD

How AWESOME is Your Name!

We praise you for the beautiful world that you have created, and we are humbled that everything we have is from you.  We acknowledge that you have been with us and brought us through many challenges, and we are on our knees throughout the world asking for your strength during this pandemic.  Only You can heal, only You can give us comfort.
ONLY YOU CAN GIVE US SALVATION THROUGH JESUS CHRIST.
Please open our eyes to who you are.  Help us to cease striving to do life without you as our first priority every morning and throughout our days.  
Yes, we are fearful during this time of uncertainty with the Covid 19 pandemic all around us.  Please quiet our anxiety and wake up and recognize that you are with us.
  Always.
We know that you are our refuge and our strength  Give us peaceful assurance that we have nothing to fear or worry about because you are with us.  Please fight the spread of the virus Father.  Give us comfort in the chaos and peace in the midst of our struggle.  
Most of all, help us rely on You to be Our Strength.
Help us to get out of your way, to step back, to open our eyes, and to acknowledge who you are and what you can do.  
Help us to be patient, to be still, and to let you guide us through this time while drawing people to know the Lord Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
In your precious son''s name I pray.
AMEN

Rejoice Always, Pray Continually, Give Thanks in All Circumstances!

           1 Thessalonians 5:16–18

"Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 

Yes, especially now, I thank you God for all of my blessings...my challenges as well as my successes because they brought me closer to you.  I raise my hands in praise and rejoice that you sent Jesus Christ to be my Savior.  I pray that you will continue to guide and bless me and my family now and at the hour of our deaths.  All that matters is doing well.  You love me, You forgive me, You are with me.  Always.  

"Where Flowers Bloom so does Hope." Lady Bird Johnson

Looking for signs of hope during the current Covoid-19 Pandemic.  The sky is blue, the sun is shining, Spring is happening right in front of my eyes.  Every day that I walk out in the garden and see new little spring beauties revealing themselves, I know that God is with us.  Always.
