The Potters Hand

To be Molded by our Creator
The One who is King of kings
There is none who is Greater
Where we are safe under His wings

Our lives are His clay to mold
Every part of us in His hands
In His grip His Love we behold
A relationship of love He commands

For us to know He is the Potter
And surrender by free will to be His clay
We are no longer lambs for the slaughter
Now Jesus is with us every moment we pray

His love will carry us through the pressure and pain
That the darkness has used to keep us bound
But it is His light that will forever reign
Now, as His beloved we await the trumpet sound

Jesus will pursue us until we are in His embrace
He is relentless to share his eternal Love
His desire is to give us His mercy and grace
This was the reason He chose to come down from above

One Love, One King, All Christ!

His Grace, Our Gift!

We walk daily covered by it
Most of us take it for granted
Something I hate to admit
But it is a gift that is implanted

The gift of Grace is bestowed upon us
Once we say and Believe in Him
Now with our loved ones we begin to discuss
That light in us will NEVER again dim

Jesus pursues us to give us Grace
God knew it was what we needed
Without it we are losing this life race
With it all of our doubts are conceded

As we receive this undeserved favor
Our desire to follow him should increase
With our free will we chose him as our savior
This gift shall bring you truly divine peace

Jesus says we are with Him always and forever
This, my friends, is no paradigm shift
NO, this is the true meaning of treasure
His Amazing Grace is our gift

One Love, One King, All Christ!

Listen to your Soul!

I met with a close friend this morning who has a lot of wisdom. His relationship with the Holy Spirit is amazing and to sit and chat with him this morning opened the eyes of my heart. This past year has been a heavy one with loss. I lost 5 people this past year who I did life with in certain seasons. These were people who owned a part of my heart. They were significant in my growth as a man and they were dear friends and family. I felt the sense of loss when I learned of each of their passings. I am joyful that all of them were believers and are in Heaven, even more reason that my HOPE is in Heaven being real!!

Even though I felt the loss I did not react the way I thought I should have. I believe I wanted to not “GO THERE” if you will. I am not fearful of crying but I do believe I was very fearful of the feeling of loss. I fought off my first friends loss, well the depth of what it really meant to me. Then before I knew it more people were gone. So, today as I shared my heart with my friend, he explained to me that our soul needs to know we can hear it. Our soul speaks to us and when it comes to losing people who are close to us, OUR SOUL needs to know that we hear it. When we don’t hear it and shut that off well we shut off hearing it all together. We go numb and as we live life we miss those opportunities to feel.

My Godmother played a significant part of my life when I was growing up. She showed me pure love and she always demonstrated that to me when I saw her. When I heard of her passing I felt the loss, but the grief was not settling in. Then 2 weeks later my other close friend was gone and it was a snowball effect of numbness. I felt the loss but not the grief and I now know that I was not listening to my soul. Each of my people that passed were close to me but left families behind that they were torn away from. I keep them in my prayers as I know what that grief feels like but because I know, I believe I was choosing, as I said earlier, to not “GO THERE!”

Well the Holy Spirit has been knocking and knocking, while I have just been listening to that knock and then another friend was tragically taken away. I needed to hear the news over the phone like 4 times to make sure I was hearing what I was hearing. Then God started to push that door open instead of knocking. He loves us so much that sometimes He just needs to bust the door down. I know I have a blessed life and continue to know that He Loves me so much. It was important for me to say this because He wants me to know its ok to GO THERE because He will be there with me.

So I am doing something personal between me and God for each of my loved ones that I have lossed and also getting back into the game of serving Jesus! My two Passions, my true passions in life is talking and sharing about Jesus and coaching. As I listen to my soul and allow the Holy Spirit to mend me, I want to share with you that Jesus’ love for us is something that is permanent. I can tell you as I pray for the loved ones of my friends and family that have moved on to Heaven, In my life as I stop and look at the big picture, I am LIVING THE DREAM!! A LIFE GUIDED BY AND FILLED WITH CHRIST! I pray for all of you that have dealt with loss that you would stop and take the time to listen to your soul and allow Jesus to meet with you and sit with you in that grief!

One Love, One King, All Christ!
