"The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing."
Zephaniah 3:17
"Why feed a child who will likely die of malaria, cholera, or dysentery before her fifth birthday? Why educated a deaf child in a place like Gaza, roiling with violence and despair? Why give a loan to a widown in Zambia dying from AIDS or bring clean water to a Congolese war zone?...Our God is a God of the lost cause, the mustard seed, the lost sheep, and the widow's mite. He values each life, regardless of circumstances, as 'precious in his sight.' "
Rich Stearns, President of World Vision
"I lay myself at Your feet
Asking You won't You meet
Won't You meet me
I cannot do it on my own
I cannot do it all alone
Here I am, oh, tonight
With my arms open wide
Won't You come inside
Won't You come inside, God
Come and fill this heart of mine
I'm in need of You
Of Your touch, of Your life, of Your love
I need You
I need You"
Shawn McDonald - Here I Am
Am I being faithful to the God of mercy, grace, love and hope?
Why is it so hard to be still?
Holy Spirit, fill her with your touch. Pull her from her apathy towards your healing and forgiveness. Turn her focus from her boyfriend to you. Teach her how to balance those relationships. Give me the words and actions to not be a stumbling block. And most of all, Holy Spirit, bring her back to the God she knows.
