Abundant Life
For as the rain comes downAnd, from heaven, the snow.They do not return there,But soak the earth below.The earth brings forth and buds,That may then bring seeds,To the planter who sowsAnd bread to meet our needs.So shall My word go forth.It shall not return void,But it shall accomplishWhatever I deployed.It shall prosper and thriveThat’s how…

Behold, My Servant prospers. He’ll be high and lifted up. Greatly exalted and praised, But made low by His Father’s cup. Just as men were astonished, His appearance marred and maimed. More than all the sons of men, For He was beaten and shamed. He shall sprinkle on nations, His offering given to all. Kings…

Never Forgotten
God never promised the absence of storms in our life, but He does promise to walk with us through them. How long, O Lord? Will You forget me? Will You hide Your face For eternity? How long, O Lord? I wrestle with thoughts, With sorrow in heart, With enemies fought. O Lord, my God Look…
