His Strength is Perfect

It's done, it's over, there's nothing else to do but wait and pray! Lastly I have been reading Beth Moore's "So Long, Insecurity," and even through that God has spoken to me and brought His sweet peace down like a flood.

Here are some of the verses that were/are such a comfort to me: "The Lord gives His people stength; the Lord grants His people security." Psalms 29:11, NET; "...if God is for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:31; "Do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to perservere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what He has promised." Hebrews 10:35-26, and; "...(You may be) struck down, but (you are) not destroyed" 2 Cor. 4:9.

There's such a sweet reasuring beauty to all of these verses! None of these verses mean that if I follow God's will for my life that I will have everything I want; they mean that He will lead me through this and my reward is something far greater that my earthly wants, it means the gift of eternal life with Him!

Thank you Lord for being me strength, my security, my cheerleader, my provider, my comforter, my all in all! Thank you for this trail you have brought my way! Or is it really a trail Lord? Let me rephrase that, thank you for Your direct to Your perfect will! Lord, through this I have come to rely on You as my sourse of everything, thank you! Lord, You are all that I need and I praise You in the mist of it all! Father, I pray that my mind, ears, spirit will be open to Your will and Your will alone; lead me where you want me to go! In Your Name, Amen!

His Strength is Perfect

I can do all things
Through Christ who gives me strength,
But sometimes I wonder what He can do through me;
No great success to show, No glory on my own,
Yet in my weakness He is there to let me know . . .

CHORUS
His strength is perfect when our strength is gone;
He’ll carry us when we can’t carry on.
Raised in His power, the weak become strong;
His strength is perfect, His strength is perfect.

We can only know
The power that He holds
When we truly see how deep our weakness goes;
His strength in us begins
Where ours comes to an end.
He hears our humble cry and proves again . . .

(chorus)

He's All I Need!!

Today was the last post planning day, the last day that I was at the school I love, the last day that I had a job. With all of those last stared the first of many other thing, the first day that I have no other alternative other than complete faith in God's will and plan for my life, the first day to step out in faith and say okay God I believe You are leading me I will follow your will (The first day in 9 months I have had to use a PC, I have become a die hard Mac girl!)

He's All I Need!

He's all I need
He's all I need
Jesus is all I need
He satisfies
My needs supply
Jesus is all I need

Jesus is everything I need
Jesus, Jesus
Jesus is life and breath to me
Jesus my Lord
His name is Jesus my Lord

He's all I need
He's all I need

Lord, thank you for the peace that You flooded me with today, thank you for allowing me the opportunity to share Your peace with others! Thank you for supplying me with understanding just when I need it! Thank you for loving me enough to lead me through this trial! Lord, You are everything I need, You are more than enough for me! Thank you for this blessing and I pray that I will be a good steward of Your will! I love you, In Jesus name AMEN!

Today's Heart Cry!

Today I have no words, but just a heart cry.


A Miracle Today

Lord, you see the puzzle not the piece
You see the forest not the trees
You know what's best for me
Lord, you have bottled my tears
You see my questions & my fears
And the way it has to be.

I know that there are others more deserving than I.
I know that I'm not worthy but You listen when I cry.
So if this cross is mine to bear, I'll praise You anyway.
Lord, I could sure use a miracle today.

You are faithful more than words
You feed the lilies & the birds
You catch the sparrow when it falls.
You know exactly where I am
So I'm not questioning Your plan
There's a reason for it all.

After the Rain

Lord, I need a miracle today.
Please just let one pass my way,
 I believe in You.

Help me overcome this fear inside, 
this pains to much for me to hide.
Lord see me through,
I need a miracle from you.

God is Enough

"God is enough,
God i enough, He is good,
He will take care of us,
He will satisfy us,
He will get us through this,
He is our treasure, "Whom have I in Heaven but YOU? And on Earth there is nothing that I desire besides You!"
My flesh, heart, and my strength my fail
But You are the strength of my heart and my portion forever!"
~John Piper

"God is most glorifies in you,
when you are most satisfied in Him,
in the midst of loss not prosperity."
~John Piper

If You Want Me To

In March I started to blog as a way to express my feelings about this path that God has taken me on and through it all I have been at complete peace, because I knew I was/am walking center in His will. That doesn't mean that I don't have times to utter sadness about leaving and I don't question why this has to be, but like the song says, "I'm gonna walk through the valley, if You want me to." In just a few days my time as a teacher will be up, I don't know if this is a permanent closure or if its just for a season. I don't know what my next job will be or were it will be. I don't know about finances. Wouldn't it be easy if God had road signs saying, "Trisha your next turn will be here and you destination will be this?" With all of the things that I don't know this is one thing that I do know, I am making the choice to believe that God will lead me to His perfect will, God has/is/will ALWAYS be in control of my life and nothing that is happening is apart from His will.


"If You Want Me To"

The pathway is broken
And the signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why You brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to

Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet
So if all of these trials bring me closer to You
Then I will go through the fire
If You want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When You lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'll never go alone (yeah oh oh)

So when the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the sufferin' Your love put You through
And I will go through the valley
If You want me to

When I cross over Jordan, I'm gonna sing, gonna shout
Gonna look into your eyes and see you never let me down
So take me on the pathway that leads me home to you
And I will walk through the valley if you want me to

Yes, I will walk through the valley if you want me to

My Prayer

Sometimes there are no words to say to express my heart, but my prayer is that through all of this I will serve my Lord and let His perfect will be done in my life!

With Al My Heart

In this quiet place with You
I bow before Your throne
I bare the deepest part of me
To You and You alone
I keep no secrets for there is
No thought You have not known
I bring my best and all the rest
To You and lay them down

Chorus:
With all my heart
I want to love You Lord
And live my life
Each day to know You more
All that is in me
Is Your completely
I'll serve You only
With all my heart

Verse 2:
You faithfully supply all my needs
According to Your plan
So help me, Lord to seek Your face
Before I seek Your hand
And trust You know what's best for me
When I don't understand
Then follow in obedience In every circumstance

Chorus till fade:
With all my heart
I want to love You Lord
And live my life
Each day to know You more
All that is in me
Is Your completely
I'll serve You only
With all my heart
