It's A New Year!

Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old.  Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? Isaiah 43:18-19 (NKJV)

A New Year With The Lord
- M.S.Lowndes
A new year is about to unfold
With new opportunities to explore
Doors will open for new experiences
New adventures with the Lord

Remember not the former things
The things of this past year
The Lord will do new things in us
Much more than we are aware

For He will make a way for us
As we put our trust in Him
And He will guide our every step
By His presence we have within

What God has placed within our hearts
We find we'll be able to do
If we look for the opportunities
We'll see the door to go through

We mustn't let anything hold us back
But rise up and take our place
And be all that God wants us to be
With a fresh touch of His grace!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Every now and then, we may have situations in our lives look as though it can't possibly get any worse. Even in those most difficult moments, we are to still find the positive and be thankful.

Be joyful always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18




Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you  need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT)

You always have something to be thankful for.

Stay Connected

Stay Connected

Sometimes we can feel so very distant
Disconnected from the source
That gives us power to live this life
And keeps us on the right course

And even when we come to worship
We don’t always feel He’s near
Sometimes it’s hard to really believe
That His presence is even there

Maybe it’s sin that keeps us away
Then maybe it’s something else
We don’t always know the reasons why
We well up with so much doubt

We end up feeling –‘what is the point
And why do we carry on’?
The love, the joy and peace we had
Has withered away and gone

Maybe these times we go through in life
God has allowed, to prune us back
So more growth can come into our lives
Bringing faith where we had lacked

It’s so important to stay connected
No matter what we go through
For if we give up and not finish the race
We may lose eternity too!
