RIGHTEOUS GLORY

Jesus is the only Righteous One
Through our faith this we must confess
So that our souls would not be orphaned
He was crucified in weakness

Our weakness is born into our flesh
Conviction disciplines the soul
Through Christ our souls are refreshed
Breaking the bondage, making us whole

Living for Jesus means to die
Die to all Earthly things
Live to Glorify the Most High
Our Righteous, Crucified, Faithful King

Give when you have nothing
Pour out when you are blessed
A song of deliverance you should sing
For you are free and no longer oppressed

Bleed in prayer for the nations
The weak, the orphan, the lost, the poor
Reveal your obedient Heart for coming generations
Pray for our persecution to increase evermore

Trust that your strength comes from above
From our Saviors lips he says do not worry
Suffer and persevere for His love
And like Jesus you will experience Righteous Glory

Family Ties

+++++My sister and her family left today to go back to Trinidad. I have such a great time with my nephews and just seeing my sister makes me so happy. I am so thankful that God provided her with a good husband who takes care of her and his kids. There is always a longing that comes when my sister leaves me. Its really a weird feeling and I know we all experience it. Its that feeling of like please don’t go. This is even knowing you will see them again relatively soon. However, that feeling sinks into your chest and just sits there. It will not be the same without my nephews here and they only spent a few days with me. I bring this up because we are connected to Christ in the same way. The difference is that he has that longing for us. He is constantly telling us he loves us and that he won’t leave us. He sits and longs for us to draw near to him. Jesus is always pleading with us to please don’t go. I pray that I can long after him in the same way. I want to feel like I am going to miss him so badly it hurts. This is something that you are use to when someone you love leaves, you hurt, whether its simply a trip back home or as devastating as a trip home to be with Jesus. We are allowed to grieve and when those we love leave it is supposed to hurt. It is in that pain where Christ comes and finds us and embraces us. His love endures forever and we must confide in that truth. So yes I will miss my sister, my nephews, and my brother-in-law, but through Christ Jesus he will meet me where I hurt. Thank you for being my Papa and for adopting me into your Holy Mighty Family! Selah

god’s time not mine

It wasn’t even a thought
I knew you would be around
But a life lesson I was taught
As you were sought after by Heavens Hound

This seems like a dream
I wish it would just have ended
My heart started to scream
Because to Heaven your soul had ascended

Jesus said” come be with me”
It’s my time to be with you
No more pain Adele you are free
Tell me daughter do you like the view

Oh, parts of me wish you were here
To be with me and hold my hand
Like when you sat on my bed when I was in fear
Teaching your son how to take a stand

I pray I can love as well as you
That my heart will pour out
Those that love like this are few
To tell people the truth and what they are really about

I just don’t understand Lord
You took her from me so early in my life
Will you remove from my grieving Heart this sword?
She didn’t even get to see my wife

The place, the time, and the way
I know it’s in your plan
It’s Peace not understanding why I pray
Our fate has been chosen by you since before man

I know in Heaven she is at peace
For that I am greatly overjoyed
It has caused my Faith to seriously increase
Knowing this is done, in His time, has filled the void.

Thank you Papa for the truth of Paradise
To know I will again one day feel her touch
For now my Faith will have to suffice
Oh Lord, I miss her so very much!
