TSMSS - Lord, I come to You...

(**The Lord nudged me awake this morning to add this to TSMSS. Perhaps someone there needs to hear this today. So please pop by Amy's blog, host of TSMSS to hear more songs that minister.)

Lord I come to You
Let my heart be changed, renewed
Flowing from the grace
That I’ve found in You
Lord I’ve come to know
The weaknesses I see in me
Will be stripped away
By the power of Your love

~ chorus ~
Hold me close
Let Your love surround me
Bring me near
Draw me to Your side
And as I wait
I’ll rise up like the eagle
And I will soar with You
Your Spirit leads me on
In the power of Your love

Lord unveil my eyes
Let me see You face to face
The knowledge of Your love
As You live in me
Lord renew my mind
As Your will unfolds in my life
In living every day
By the power of Your love

(repeat chorus twice)

And I will soar with You
Your Spirit leads me on
In the power of Your love
(repeat)
(Lyrics: Geoff Bullock, Darlene Zschech))

Like a Crashing Wave...Holy Love, flow in me...

**reposting

As we were singing Holy Love this morning at church, I was acutely aware of the oceans of fear that surrounds us this day. Satan is grinning. It is washing over us, seeping into the unprotected zones, the parts of us that we control.

(Any time Satan comes with fearful thoughts in any area that we have relinquished control to God, we can simply point him to Jesus, say, man, tell it to Him, He's in total control here...(-;)

Then up pop things we cannot control:

Betrayal in relationships

Illness,

loss of jobs,

financial distress...

just to name a few...

so, it is time, like Mary, seated at Jesus' feet,

to drink in all He had to say;

like Esther, who put on her royal robes,

to face Xerxes at the risk of death.

He extended the royal sceptre,

she had to reach out and touch it to be safe.

Go to Jesus, pour out your heart, surrender...

Reach out, sing this song, read the Scripture, claim it,

and let His holy love come crashing like a wave,

washing all that fear away...

wiping Satan's grin away...

1 John 4:18 (Amplified Bible)
18There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love's complete perfection].

Holy Love

(Andy Park)

Many waters cannot quench your love

Rivers cannot overwhelm it

Oceans of fear cannot conceal

Your love for me

Many waters cannot quench Your love

Rivers cannot overwhelm it

Oceans of fear cannot conceal

Your love for me

Your love for me

Holy love, flow in me

Fill me up like the deepest sea

Like a crashing wave pouring over me

Holy love flow in me

Many sorrows cannot quench Your love

Darkness cannot overwhelm it

I will not fear,

Your love is here to comfort me

Many sorrows cannot quench Your love

Darkness cannot overwhelm it

I will not fear,

Your love is here to comfort me

You comfort me

(Bridge)

When I find you I find healing

When I find you I find peace

And I know that there’s no river so wide

No mountain so high,

no ocean so deep

That You can’t part the sea

TSMSS - Come As You Are

This song really ministered to me today. Pray you are blessed as well.
Drop by Amy's blog to hear more songs that minister on TSMSS (Then Sings My Soul Saturday).

Come As You Are  (Pocket Full of Rocks)

He's not mad at you

He's not disappointed

His grace is greater still,

than all of your wrong choices

He is full of mercy and he is ever kind

Hear his invitation, His arms are open wide

You can come as you are,

with all your broken pieces

And all your shameful scars

The pain you hold in your heart,

bring it all to Jesus

You can come as you are

Louder than the voice that whispers your unworthy

Hear the sound of love,

that tells a different story

Shattering your darkness and pushing through the lies

How tenderly he calls you,

His arms are open wide

You can come as you are,

with all your broken pieces

And all your shameful scars

The pain you hold in your heart,

bring it all to Jesus

You can come as you are

You can come as you are

You can come as you are with all your broken pieces

And all your shameful scars

The pain you hold in your heart,

bring it all to Jesus

You can come as you are

I Am Willing, Lord

God first brought this song to me many years ago when my heart was broken. It was a time in my life I will always cherish as a time of wonderful intimacy with my God as He poured Himself into my pain. Today, He brought this song back to me and I sing it back to Him.



"I am willing, Lord, to be just exactly what You want me to be...please don't ever stop working with me, till You see I can be all You want me to be..."
I dedicate this to my mother on her birthday today. Because of her love and faithfulness, I am here today with a strong foundation that will not allow me to move away from God even when He appears absent. Instead, I am drawn to Him as the only Hope. Thank you, Mom. You are indeed a treasure and I miss you so far away.
"Father, please give Mom a special touch of Your goodness today. Let her know how special she is and pour unexpected blessings into her life even now. Thank You."
