For Such A Time As This

When times are tough and life is hard God knows our deepest need
He finds a way to come to us when we are on our knees
Our prayers reach up to heaven and reach His waiting ears
Then He comes like lightning and settles all our fears

I may be in a battle, but God will break on through
I may be deep in trouble, but His word is always true
He’ll bring someone along in the times we least expect
A soothing voice to calm my heart when I simply cannot rest

Who knows if we are not here for such a times as this?
To fill a space inside our hearts that we had surely missed
I’m not sure what His plan is but I thank Him night and day
That we have found each other as we walked along the way

I know that God is with me and I know He cares for you
I know He guides my life to courses always true
I know That all He does will turn out for my good
So, it must be that that I was sent to be a friend to you

I do not know your story.  I do not know your pain
I only know that Jesus cares to lift you up again
He wants to bring you out of a dark and lonely place
So you will rise to new life with a smile on your face

Take joy that Jesus saw you and used a simple game
He heard your prayers in silence and answered in His way
Don’t worry for tomorrow.  Don’t fret for what’s to come
Just place your life in His hands.  The battle has been won
Effective Prayer

Help Me

 Lord I need your mercy
 For the sins I do
 Help me know your love, Lord
 Help me follow you
  
 Lord I need forgiveness
 For my thoughts today
 Help me cleanse my mind, Lord
 Help me find my way
  
 Lord I need your healing
 For my aches and pains
 Help me to believe, Lord
 Help me breathe again
  
 Lord I need compassion
 For all who are in need
 Help me to reach out, Lord
 Help me do good deeds
  
 Lord I need deliverance
 From the mess I’m in
 Help me see your grace, Lord
 Help me rise within 

It’s All Good

 When I come up against an ocean of fear
 And doubt surrounds me like the enemy
 There is nowhere to turn for escape
 There is nowhere to hide
 Defeat seems imminent
 I hear you say
 It’s all good
  
 When the trials are hotter than I can stand
 And the lion is waiting in his den
 There is no hope for relief
 There is nowhere to run
 Death is right around the corner
 I hear you say
 It’s all good
  
 I turned the sea to dry land
 I turned air into manna
 I turned water into wine
 I turned bones into flesh
 I turned walls into rubble
 I turned death to life
 I turned all these things before
 I can turn them again
  
 So when all seems lost
 And there’s nothing left to do
 Turn to Jesus
 Turn to prayer                       
 Turn to peace
 Turn to joy
 Turn to hope
 Because in the end
 No matter what it looks like now
 No matter how bad it might seem
 No matter what you think
 God says it’s all good
