in You

In Your hand Lord, there is life changing hope
In Your Word Lord, there is the truth that sets us free
In Your Spirit Lord, there are waters of abundant life
In Your life Lord, there is peace and joy abounding.

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
(Romans 15:13)

I am

I am the Lord your God
Who brought you out of sin
Who delivered you from the bonds of slavery
Who set you on high ground
Who made a way where there was no way
Who tore the veil and invited you into the most holy place
I am the Lord your God
Who gives you new life
Who offers you life abundant
Who longs for your presence
Who loves you with an everlasting love
I am the Lord your God
I am the Lord Jesus the Christ

First...

First, God loved us…
But we chose separation.
Then God gave us a promise fashioned by faith…
But we determined that we could not wait.
Then God acted upon His promise…
But it did not fit our understanding so we did not believe.
Then God, in His love for us, paid the ultimate price…
But we, in our disobedience, ignored His gift.
Then God said ‘it is finished’…
But we still wanted our own kingdoms.
Then God tore the veil from top to bottom to overcome the separation…
But we chose to ignore His redemptive work.
Then God removed the sting of death…
But we, in our pride, rejected the hope of new life.

God is still waiting,
His promise fulfilled,
His plan for our redemption complete,
His love calls us to His Son,
His Spirit draws us to His grace…
How then shall we respond to the greatest love of all?
