I’m Looking for Jesus

I’m looking for Jesus wherever I go
In Him I am sure that all blessings will flow
His power is greater.
His love is divine
I’m looking for Jesus all of the time

I’m looking for Jesus beside me each day
I know He’ll be with me to show me the way
His joy overwhelms me
His peace calms my soul
I’m looking for Jesus for he gives me hope

CHORUS
Oh what a sight to see
My Savior beside me
Oh what a pleasure. Oh what a thrill
Jesus is all I need

I’m looking for Jesus to show me the Light
Each day that passes He shows me what’s right
I love Him with all of my heart and my mind
I’m looking for Jesus my strength all the time

CHORUS

BRIDGE

I know He’s not far away (4 times)
I know He’s right here to stay (4 times)

CHORUS

That’s What I’ll Do

Whatever it takes to draw closer to you
That’s what I’ll do, lord
That’s what I’ll do

Whatever it takes to hear your sweet voice
That’s what I’ll do, Lord
That’s what I’ll do

CHORUS
Wherever you call me. Wherever you lead
Through ever trial I know you’ll succeed
There’s never a time when you can’t meet my need
I will follow you, Lord. That’s what I’ll do

Whatever it takes to do what you ask
That’s what I’ll do Lord
That’s what I’ll do

CHORUS

BRIDGE
No matter the cost. No matter the pain
No matter the trials I know you’ll remain
No matter how hard the enemy fights
In your will my heart will find great delight

CHORUS

God Is Determined

God is determined to bless me
In ways that I can’t comprehend
I am determined to praise Him
I’ll give Him the best that I can

God is determined to heal me
He’ll take away all my pain
I am determined to love Him
I’ll worship again and again

God is determined to save me
From all of my troubles and storms
I am determined to fall down
I’ll take in the health that he forms

God is determined to guide me
Through all of the valleys I face
I am determined to follow
I’ll trust in His wonderful grace

God is determined to know me
He’ll speak to me every day
I am determined to know Him
I’ll hear His sweet voice and I’ll say

Jesus I love you with all of my heart
I love you with all of my mind
All of my soul I give to you
For you are my strength all the time

Your Gentle Voice

I’ve come to listen, Lord, to hear you speak
For your truth is what I seek

I long to hear your gentle voice
Come to me now and I’ll rejoice

For you speak life into my soul
You speak hope and make me whole

You speak wisdom so I might learn
You speak glory for which I yearn

You speak peace to calm my storms
You speak joy/ My heart you warm

Lord give me life today I ask
To hear your voice is my only task

Into Your Hands

Into your hand I commit my mind
Help me to think only on you
Help me to set my eyes on you
Help me to value my time

Into your hands I commit my strength
Help me to walk only with you
Help me to do the best I can do
Help me to redeem my time

Into your hands I commit my heart
Help me to turn only to you
Help me to walk away from my sin
Help me to savor my time

Into your hands I commit my life
Help me to know I am yours
You purchased me by the blood on the cross
Help me give you all my time

Who do I think I am? Am I someone extra special who is allowed the liberty to do whatever I want with my time? That’s the way the world looks at time. They look at it as their own possession, to be used and wasted on their own pursuits. Some serve God with a bit of their time, using the rest to make their own dreams and passions a reality. Some do not know God and they take time to do whatever their heart desires. Most people use their time on what they want, not considering what God wants them to do.

I don’t want to be in that crowd. I want to do what God wants me to do. To use every minutes for His glory. Maybe it’s business I need to do. Am I seeking His plan for my day or am I aimlessly walking through my plan for the day. In my devotions and writing, am I seeking His counsel or just trusting my own ability? Am I exercises for the right reasons? Is God in the center and not of to the side somewhere?

I am done wasting time. Time is on of the most precious gifts God has given us, and we should give it all back top Him. Doing our best all the time because He is right there with us. He knows when I waste even a minute. He knows what I should be doing next and whispers in my ear all the time to guide me through this life. I need to listen better!. I need to give my life into His hand so He can hold onto my right hand!

Psalm 73:23
Nevertheless, I am continually with thee, thou that holdest me by my right hand

Behold

Behold the little babe
Lying in the hay
Shepherds gather ‘round
Bringing Him their praise

Behold the Son of Man
Teaching in the street
Healing all who come
Friend to all he meets

Behold the Lamb of God
Hung upon a tree
Beaten, bruised and tortured
All to set me free

Behold the Resurrection
Rising from the grave
Victory over death
Praise His Holy name

Behold the King of Kings’
Sitting on the throne
He’s the Lord of Lords
Worship Him Alone

His Abiding Love

I sit here and I tremble at a world out of control
I wonder what will happen as we travel down the road
Will the chaos just increase or will it come to rest
Regardless of what happens I know God will do His best/

You see I do not have to fear what man can do to me
All I need to do is be what God wants me to be
If I follow in His ways and always do His will
I will find my soul will rest when I will just be still

For in that time of stillness He gently speaks to me
He opens up my eyes so that I can clearly see
That all this world can offer will never quite compare
To the peace that He can give me in these times of great despair

Do not think upon what the enemy may do
Set your mind on Jesus for His promises are true
This world will one day fall away and darkness fill the sky
My trust will be in Jesus and He will be my guide

He’ll guide me safely through the storms that will soon come my way
He’ll guide me through the wilderness and strengthen me each day
He’ll walk with me and talk with me and give me peace of mind
While all the while He’ll help me to be gentle and be kind

You see, no greater force is there than His abiding love
Against all of the evil of this world it is enough
So get down on your knees and say a prayer tonight
Lord fill my heart with all that is pure and good and right

Send me out into this world that is growing ever dark
Make me sound the trumpet loud, let me be the spark
The fire of the Holy Ghost is needed everywhere
Help me be the light that will shine and fill the air

The Only Way

I can’t imagine what I’d do without you
Your Spirit guides me every single day
Not a soul goes by that I don’t talk about you
For all must know that you’re the only way

CHORUS
The only way
The only way
Jesus you are the only way
Because one day
We’ll be swept away
All must know that you’re the only way

Lord, help to reveal my testimony
The story of my life can touch the heart
You brought me out of darkness into glory
You brought me out of sin into the light

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Now I must pray every day
I must witness to all who come my way
Jesus you receive my praise
Let my voice exalt your name

CHORUS

You Found Me

When I was lost and all alone
You found me
When my strength was almost gone
You found me
When I just could not go on
You found me and set me free

Free from the darkness in my life
Free from the fear that ate me alive
Free so my soul could now survive
You found me and set me free

Thank you Lord for not giving up
Thank you for showing me you are enough
Thank you for your amazing love
Thank you for finding me

God and God Alone

I will bow before your throne
You are God and God alone
With my hands uplifted high
I testify

You have been good to me. So good to me
You have been good to me everyday
You have been faithful, Lord. Faithful to me

You have shown mercy, Lord, everyday
