poem

YOU WERE THERE

Jesus take me in your arms and wipe away my tears

Hold me close and don't let go please - take away my fears.

You've known me now for a long long time
     Even though I didn't understand

You've been here all along Holding tight on to my hands.

You were with me when bad things were done

They tried to tear my soul apart!

You sent your angels to help me drawing me close to your heart.

Thank you Jesus for loving me
     when I really couldn't love myself at all

You loved the unlovable - And I finally heard your call.

You spoke in a quiet little voice
     telling me Jesus and God are one

to help me understand the past when all the evil was done.

Now you've continued the healing teaching me to learn to laugh

Lord give me your joy always comfort me with your rod and staff

Thank you Jesus for dying for me your love for me is true

You love us all equally and forever my love I give to you

ALABASTER
The room grew still as she made her way to Jesus
She stumbles through the tears that made her blind
She felt such pain, some spoke in anger
Heard folks whisper, there's no place here for her kind.
Still on she came, through the shame that flushed her face
Until at last she knelt before His feet. And though she spoke no words
Everything she said was heard, As she poured her love for the Master
>From her box of Alabaster.

CHORUS
And I've come to pour my praise on Him like oil from Mary's Alabaster Box
Don't be angry if I wash His feet with my tears and I dry them with my hair.
You weren't there the night He found me.
You did not feel what I felt when He wrapped His love all around me.
And you don't know the cost of the oil in my Alabaster Box.

VERSE 2
I can't forget the way life used to be. I was a prisoner to the sin that had me bound
I spent my days pouring my life without measure.
Into a little treasure box I thought I found. Until the day when Jesus came to me
And healed my soul with the wonder of His touch.
So now I'm giving back to Him all the praise He's worthy of .
I've been forgiven and that's why I love Him so much.

CHORUS
And I've come to pour my praise on Him like oil from Mary's Alabaster Box
Don't be angry if I wash His feet with my tears
And I dry them with my hair, my hair.
You weren't there the night Jesus found me. You did not feel what I felt
When He wrapped His love all around me. And you don't know the cost of the oil
Oh, you don't know the cost of my praise. You don't know the cost of the oil
In my Alabaster Box.

Your Tears

Your tears, they fall down like rain,
Every one you shed causes me pain.
You think I do not notice,
The tears in your eyes,
Just because I look away whenever you cry.
I notice every single time that you weep,
Especially when you bind your thoughts so deep,
I want to help you,
You know this is true,
I know you see me when I stare at you.
If it is comfort that you seek,
I'll be there for you always,
Every day, every week.
If you need help,
You can turn to me.
I won't go away,
That I can guarantee.


 

Blackness surrounds my soul
Turmoil wrestles my heart
Sadness engulfs my being
This heaviness tears me apart.

My mind tumbles with thoughts
Of leaving this all behind
Strength I do not have
To fight the enemy this time.

This cycle of spiritual death
When does it ever end?
I thought I finally conquered
Bound I am again.

This battle surrendered unwillingly
I've lost this fight once more
My spirit no longer ignited
The flames extinguished, Oh Lord.

Wearily I reach out to you, God
Despite the emptiness I feel
Darkness surrounds my life
My joy it managed to steal.

Lord, where do I go from here?
For I've failed you once again
I don't want to be a failure
And return to a life of sin.

Consume me! Holy Spirit
Bring light upon my soul
Pour your strength within me
And clothe me with your robe.

Shelter me from the enemy
To YOU I cry, My Lord.
Carry me through this battle
As you've done for me before.

Forgive me for my weakness
My faith has withered some
I love you with all my heart
Please help me overcome!

"Come to me in your weakness
For in your strength you die
My life I gave for you
To restore you back to life.

Rest in me, My daughter
Once AGAIN take hold of me!
Even through this battle
I will bring you victory.

A purpose I have given
The enemy knows the plan
I'll give you all the weapons
To fight and firmly stand.

This walk will not be easy
You need to seek MY face!
When your spirit becomes weary
Come, My Strength, embrace!"

Thank you Lord, for your faithfulness
Your mercies and your grace
Your love is never ending
In My weakness, YOUR hands, I place.

I really miss you, and think about you everyday


 

Though I don't write
or call you
as often as I would like to
I spend time every day
thinking about you
Sometimes it is
a memory of something we shared
Other times it is
an incident in my life
that I imagine myself
telling you about
No matter what it is
in my mind
I write and call you every day
and I miss you


 

I miss you, my friend


 

I really miss you
I have other friends
whom I talk to
but it's not
the same
You have such
a deep understanding
of who I am
I hardly have to
speak any words
and you know just
what I am saying
I really miss you
and I want to be sure
that you know
that no matter where I go
whom I meet
or what I do
I'll never find
as deep a friendship
with anyone as I
have with you

-Poem by Susan Polis Schutz

I miss you


 

You are there
and I am here
thinking about how much
I love you
thinking about how much
I respect you
thinking about how much
I miss you

You are there
and I am here
thinking about how much
I cannot wait
until we are together again
thinking about how
I will appreciate
more than ever
the time
we will spend together
I love you


 

SPEAK TO ME


 

i'm in a fix
need something quick
my mind is numb
my stomach sick
broken hearts
hopeless things
i've seen what defiance brings
cause the light of day
i've always known
is in my heart
i'm not alone
speak to me
tell me all the things i need to know
i want to hear you now
can you speak to me
i've opened up your word to free me
i want to hear you now
it's amazing
how i forget
can't live my life
for lack of it
but the light of day
i've always known
it's in my heart
i'm not alone
speak to me
tell me all the things i need to know
i want to hear you now
can you speak to me
i've opened up your word to free me
i want to hear you now
make your wisdom clear
the words i hold so dear
bring the light into my dark
i hide them inside my heart


 

Poem By Krista


 

I miss the way it used to be
When you were my best friend
Oh, you meant the world to me
It seemed my love would never end


 

With an undying thirst for holiness
I put my heart in your hands to mold
Now the desires removing less and less
This callous heart has gotten so cold


 

A fire was once burning in my soul
Now I have other things in your place
It seems now my heart has a hole
I used to wake up early and seek your face


 

Now with tears running down
I miss the time we've been apart
Sin is so wretched and caused me to drown
But now I'm ready to give you back my heart


 

Thank you Jesus, I missed you so
I'll never understand your grace for me
Now that I've got you, I won't let you go
You broke these chains and set me free


 

More of You and less of me is my desire
Now every part of the Word I will devour
So when people see me they'll see a fire
Jesus Christ in me, His resurrection power

Read Each One Carefully and Think About It a Second or Two


1. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, 
won't make you cry. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want 
them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all
they
have. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
3. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and 
touches your heart. 
 
 



 
 
4. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right 
beside them knowing you can't have them. 
 
 
 
 

 
 
5. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you
never know 
who is falling in love with your smile. 
 



6. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you 
may be the
world. 





 
 
7. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to 
aste their time on you. 




. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people
before 
meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person,
we 
ill know how to be grateful. 
 


by because it is over, smile because it happened. 
 





10. There's always going to be
people that hurt you so what 
you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful
about 
who you trust next time around.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
11. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before 
you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.
 
 
 
 
 
 
12. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least 
expect them to. 

13.Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll still land 
among the stars. 
 
14.Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs 
uilt the
ark;
professionals built the Titanic! 
 
15.When you were born, everyone around you was smiling and 
you were crying. Live your life so that when you die, you're 
wiling and everyone around you is crying! 
 REMEMBER: WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR A REASON. 

 

Happiness is only in your heart so Love yourself and you will 
always have Peace

The Lord is Good

ALL THE TIME. I love the Lord don't you? The past week has been a challenge for me because my emotions were all over the place but I depended on the Lord to get me through it all. This that and everything was in God's hands so I never worried about anything not happening. Yesteday was so fun I woke up at 1pm at Deannes I took a shower ate and at 330 I was gonna walk over but changed my mind because it was really nice outside so I went to pick up my nephew and neice Jerome and Kaylee and Shaylen came along. I pulled 3 of em on the sled. Good work out I guess I took them to macaulies hil from hutchison. I was so happy pulling them and going down the hill with jerome and kaylee. I was laughing hardd when jerome would take the sled and run fast and jump on the sled sliding down the hill by himself and kaylee would be terrified to go on unless i was with her. they are so much not alike. jerome is like me and kaylee is like my sister. lol. i pulled them up the hill alot too and that was even harder but good workout. I pulled jerome kaylee and shaylin on the sled all the way up town lol over the gravel on the road which make it harder. when i got up town i put kaylee on my shoulders and pulled jerome on the sled all the way to hutchison and they were sleeping. kaylee was leaning on my head and i held her up while she was sleeping. i dropped them off and headed back to across the bridge while i was walking i was really hungry after pulling them and i prayed for God to help me and i walked by deannes having a feeling to go there but had no reason so i remembered i forgot my toothbrush so i asked her for it and sherry asked me if i wanted to eat because there was lots of bbq wings rice and peas and i said really and she said yes and i said yes and ate it was really good then i said thx i walked to my moms  called john to pick me up on a skidoo and he dropped me off at mf pentecostal church for prayer meeting after that went home listened to preaching and played guiter while chatting online. Talked on the phone with margaret till 4am got woken up at 1015 changed my clothes brushed my hair brushed my teeth ate an apple and grabbed my bible ran to church and was early well right on time. Sunday school was so awesome I felt that God was answering my prayer and my prayers were answered. I played the drums and guitar which was awesome! God is using me. Prayer is powerful

God answers prayers

The Lord's voice

This will give you the chills........GOOD chills. 

A young man had been to Wednesday night Bible
   

Study.

The Pastor had shared about listening to God and obeying the

Lord's voice.

The young man couldn't help but wonder,

"Does God still speak

to people?"

After service he went out with some friends for coffee and

pie and they

discussed the

message.

Several different ones talked about how God had led them in

different

ways. 

    It was about ten

o'clock when the young man started driving

home.

Sitting in his car, he just began to pray, "God...If you

still speak to

people speak to me. I will listen. I will do my best to

obey."

As he drove down the main street of his town, he had the

strangest thought

to stop and buy a gallon of milk.

He shook his head and said out loud, "God is that you?" He

didn't get a

reply and started on toward home.

But again, the thought, buy a gallon of milk.

The young man thought about Samuel and how he didn't
   

recognize the voice

of God, and how little Samuel

ran to Eli.

"Okay, God, in case that is you, I will buy the milk." It

didn't seem like

too hard a test of obedience. He could always use the milk.

He stopped and

purchased the gallon of milk and started off toward home.

As he passed Seventh Street, he again felt the urge, "Turn

Down that

street."

This is crazy he thought and drove on past the intersection.

    Again, he felt that he should turn down Seventh Street.


At the next intersection, he turned back and headed down

Seventh.

Half jokingly, he said out loud, "Okay, God, I will".

He drove several blocks,??when suddenly, he felt like he

should stop. He

pulled over to the curb and??looked around. He was in semi

commercial area

of town. It wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst of neighborhoods either. The businesses were closed and??most of the houses

looked dark like

the people

were already in bed.
   
   

Again,he sensed something, "Go and give the milk to the

people in the

house across the street." The young man looked at the house.

It was dark

and it looked like the people were either gone or they were

already asleep. He started to open??the door and then sat back in the car seat.

"Lord, this is insane. Those people are asleep and if I wake

them up, they

are going to be mad and I will look stupid." Again, he felt

like he should

    go and give the milk.

Finally, he opened the door, "Okay God, if this is you, I will go to the door and I will give them the milk.

If you want me to look like a crazy person, okay.

I want to be obedient. I guess that will count for something but if they don't answer right away, I am out of here."

He walked across the street and rang the bell. He could hear

some noise

inside. A man's voice yelled out, "Who is it? What do you

want?" Then the

door opened before the young man could

get away.
   
   

The man was standing there in his jeans and T-shirt.

 He looked

like he just got out of bed. He had a strange look on his face and he didn't seem

too happy to have some stranger standing on his doorstep.

"What is it?"?

The young man thrust out the gallon of milk, "Here, I brought

this to 

 you." The man took the milk and rushed down a

hallway.

Then from down the hall came a woman carrying the milk toward the kitchen. The man was following

her holding a baby. The

baby was
   
   

crying. The man had

tears streaming down his face.

The man began speaking and half crying, "We were just praying.

We had some

big bills this month and we ran out of money. We didn't have

any milk for

our baby. I was just praying and asking God to show me how to

get some

milk."

His wife in the kitchen yelled out, "I ask him to send an

Angel with some.

Are you an Angel?"

The young man reached into his wallet and pulled out all the

    money he had

on him and put in the man's hand. He turned and walked back

toward his car

and the tears were streaming down his

face

 

He knew that God still answers prayers.

Letter to a friend

I just had to write to tell you how much I love you and care for you. Yesterday, I saw you walking and laughing with your friends; I hoped that soon you'd want Me to walk along with you, too. So, I painted you a sunset to close your day and whispered a cool breeze to refresh you.

I waited but you never called I just kept on loving you. As I watched you fall asleep last night, I wanted so much to touch you. I spilled moonlight onto your face- trickling down your cheeks as so many tears have. You didn't even think of me; I wanted so much to comfort you.

The next day I exploded a brilliant sunrise into a glorious morning for you. But you woke up late and rushed off to work- you didn't even notice. My sky became cloudy and My tears were the rain. I love you. Oh, if you'd only listen. I really love you. I try to say it in the quiet of the green meadow and in the blue sky. The wind whispers My love throughout the treetops and spills it into the vibrant colors of the flowers. I shout it to you in the thunder of the great waterfalls and compose love songs for bands to sing for you. I warm you with the clothing of My sunshine and perfume the air with nature's sweet scent. My love for you is deeper than the ocean and greater than any need in your heart. If you'd only realize how I care. I died just for you.

My Dad sends His love. I want you to meet Him. He cares, too. Fathers are just that way. So please call Me soon. No matter how long it takes, I'll wait because I love you.

Your Friend,
Jesus
