Jesus I Believe Big Daddy Weave

Going through a trial can feel overwhelming at times. Yet we’ve got to remember that God will always be with us, in the fiery furnace or through the valley of Shadow you’re never alone. Lean on Him. Cry out to Him, we have a God who knows exactly what we feel, the sorrow, pain, confusion, and yet He is always for us. Always with us. Standing on His promises are never easy. Our Sunday School Bible stories made it look so simple to trust Him through the circumstances, opposition, and enemy but it FAITH isn’t for quitters. Faith endures. His with you, the author and finisher of your faith is with you. Don’t give in, don’t give up. Lean on Him, cling to Him, You’ll make it! – Pastor Chris

Big Daddy Weave

I wanna walk with You Jesus
Feel your presence
And know You’re near
I wanna see You Jesus
Move in power
And cast out fear

I need to hear You now
I need to know it’s You
I’m standing on your promises
I know your Word is true
You’re bigger what I see
It’s You and in exchange for me
‘Cause even the impossible can be reality

Jesus I believe

I wanna say what You’re saying
Speaking life to what is dead

And I wanna cling to You Jesus
Uh, hanging on your every breath

I need to hear You now
I need to know it’s You
I’m standing on your promises
I know your Words are true
You’re bigger what I see
That it’s You in exchange for me
‘Cause even the impossible is your reality

So let your kingdom come
And let your will be done

Just like it is in heaven

And let your will be done
Right here on earth
Just like it is in heaven

“Our response to the LORD when bad things happen is EVERYTHING!” IF your hope is based upon the outcome, there is nothing supernatural about that. But when you can HOPE in the face of the most terrible things that have every happened to you- that is not NATURAL. There’s something greater at work there or rather I should say, SOMEONE GREATER at work there.

Jack Buck & John O’Leary

Do More For Others

“In life my friends it is very seldom that what we see coming is what burns us.” – John O’Leary. Great mentoring, great leadership, great love is always, not sometimes, always about coming down. It’s about meeting people where they are in their struggles, in their challenges, in their adversity.”

What Jack Buck does, “He takes it home, he cries, he prays, he reflects on just one question. “What more can I do?” He kept on visiting.

Well Done Good and Faithful

By Andrew Peterson and appears on the EP Resurrection Letters: Prologue

Why has my God, my soul forsook, nor will a smile afford
Thus David once in anguish spoke and thus our dying Lord
Oh, it’s your chief delight to dwell among your praising saints
And yet your hear us groan as well and pity our complaints

Our fathers trusted in your name and great deliverance found
But he’s a worm despised of men who trot him to the ground
Men shake their heads and pass him by and laugh his soul to scorn
“In vain he trusts in God,” they cry, neglected and forlorn

But you are he who formed his flesh by your own mighty word
And since he hung upon the breast his hope was in the Lord
Why would his father hide his face when foes stand threatening ’round
In his dark hour of deep distress and not a helper found

Why, oh why, my God?
Why, oh why, my God?

For the joy set before him he endured
And is seated at the right hand of the throne
Well done, good and faithful, well done
Well done, good and faithful one

Behold your dear one left alone with the cruel and the proud
As mighty bulls so fierce and strong, as lions roaring loud
For mirth and hell and sorrows meet to multiply the pain
They nail his hands, they pierce his feet and mock him yet again

Yet if your sovereign hand let loose a rage in earth and hell
Why would my Heavenly father bruise the son he loved so well?
He prayed in dark Gethsemane, “Withhold this bitter cup”
But he resigned his will to thee and drank the sorrows up

Our savior cried with David’s grief, “In groans I waste my breath
Thy hand has brought me down beneath the bitter dust of death”
And then he gave his spirit up to trust it in your hand
His dying flesh reposed in hope, to rise at your command

Why, oh why, my God?
Why, oh why, my God?

For the joy set before him he endured
And is seated at the right hand of the throne
Well done, good and faithful, well done
Well done, good and faithful, well done
Well done good and faithful one

Songs For A Grieving Heart

Andrew Peterson 
“Always Good”

Do You remember how Mary was grieving?
How You wept and she fell at Your feet?
If it’s true that You know what I’m feeling
Could it be that You’re weeping with me?

Arise, o Lord, and save me
There’s nowhere else to go

You’re always good, always good
Somehow this sorrow is shaping my heart like it should
And You’re always good, always good

Well it’s so hard to know what You’re doing
Why won’t You tell it all plain?
But You said You’d come back on the third day
And Peter missed it again and again

So maybe the answer surrounds us
But we don’t have eyes to see

That You’re always good, always good
This heartache is moving me closer than joy ever could
And You’re always good

My God, my God, be near me
There’s nowhere else to go
And Lord, if You can hear me
Please help Your child to know

That You’re always good, always good
As we try to believe what is not meant to be understood
Will You help us to trust Your intentions for us are still good
‘Cause You laid down Your life
And You suffered like I never could

You’re always good, always good
You’re always good, always good

You’ll Find Your Way by Andrew Peterson

When I look at you, boy
I can see the road that lies ahead
I can see the love and the sorrow

Bright fields of joy
Dark nights awake in a stormy bed
I want to go with you, but I can’t follow

So keep to the old roads
Keep to the old roads
And you’ll find your way

Your first kiss, your first crush
The first time you know you’re not enough
The first time there’s no one there to hold you

The first time you pack it all up
And drive alone across America
Please remember the words that I told you

Keep to the old roads
Keep to the old roads
And you’ll find your way
You’ll find your way

If love is what you’re looking for
The old roads lead to an open door
And you’ll find your way
You’ll find your way
Back home

 

And I know you’ll be scared when you take up that cross
And I know it’ll hurt, ’cause I know what it costs
And I love you so much and it’s so hard to watch
But you’re gonna grow up and you’re gonna get lost
Just go back, go back

Go back, go back to the ancient paths
Lash your heart to the ancient mast
And hold on, boy, whatever you do
To the hope that’s taken hold of you
And you’ll find your way
You’ll find your way
If love is what you’re looking for
The old roads lead to an open door
And you’ll find your way
You’ll find your way
Back home

Get Alone With The Bible

You’ve got to read the Bible for yourself. Don’t simply let someone else tell you what it says. Pick it up and read it for yourself. I have found that a guide helps you to navigate confusing, customs, cultures, and nuances. But nothing is more powerful than reading and listening to the scriptures for yourself. Ask God to show you His Word and here’s a great starting place. http://www.readscripture.org
