He found me broken, restless.
He found me dirty, not worthy, fading with every given day.
He found me through the dark, cold fog in depths of despair.
Ground that was once soil, now filled with mud from years of unceasing rain.
Kneeling down on one knee, He took my face in His hands and whispered, "Daughter, let me heal your wounds past, present, and future."
This time the rain wasn’t cold, wet, or unpleasant. It was warm and smelled of roses. It was a healing rain. A rain to wash away my brokenness, restlessness, dirt of my sins, unworthiness. Dark, cold fog lifted, seeing the once flooded ground now had spring flowers, smelling of sweet nectar.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, Oh LORD, my strength and my Redemeer
[]
For the words I display flowing from my heart shall not lead me astray...
For that of love I dwell with the Lord my King
Upon the silence of twilight eve. I rest near the sea and meditate on that of goodness, hope and faith forseen
For all strength received flows abundant from the Sea of Galilee in a simple psalms
Leading onward to my Redeemer my King
To live of joyous tear receiving a gift of life through scripture revered
A simple love song touching the heart leading onward to an unshakable foundation of Faith, Hope and Love
For the will of God be done
As I rise to a gracious plauteo of understanding, wisdom and strength
What
I'm listening
As she was singing
A song so healing
Taking away all traumas
She's a healer and a redeemer.
Her voice
So lovely
A rare tune
Without auto tuning
She gives
Absolute melodies.
Rhythm like never
So rare
Very harmonizing
Giving me
Butterflies in my Stomach.
Saviour
Almighty
Victorious
Invisible
Overcomer
Upholder
Redeemer
In life's relentless gale, I stand frail,
Each strike kindles a storm of wail.
Through sleepless nights, I roam in grief,
As love's illusion fades, like a withering leaf.
The peace of heaven, a distant dream,
In the clutches of despair, I silently scream.
For Thee, my soul aches to soar,
But deceit and mourning are my core.
Yet, in the abyss of surrender, I find a spark,
Your whispered words cut through the dark.
With arms wide to the dawning sky,
I seek redemption, my final cry.
Give me your troubled heart.
Give me your weary mind.
Give me your heavy load,
I’ll make it mine.
I know you don’t remember now
the time we used to spend.
Trust me child, you were here
and you’ll be back again.
Show me just a little faith,
let me take your hand.
Give me an open heart.
Give me your hand.
I am here guide you through
this dreary land.
Won’t you let me guide you through
this dreary land?
I know you don’t remember now
the time we used to spend.
Trust me child, you were here
and you’ll be back again.
Show me just a little faith,
let me take your hand.
Give me a little time,
I know it’s hard to find.
Just let it go, and let me know,
I’ll ease your mind.
I’ll lift you up. I’ll bring you home.
I’ll make you mine.
Yes, I’ll lift your spirit up.
I’ll make you mine.
I know you don’t remember now
the life we had before.
I paid the price.
I laid it down.
I opened up the door.
So take my hand,
I’ll lead you home,
where we lived before.
Just take my hand,
I’ll lead you here…
where we lived before.
God forgives those who come to follow Him
Desiring to be cleansed and freed from sin.
Since Adam and Eve ate from the wrong tree
Sin’s built into mankind naturally
An ongoing battle that's tough to fight
Until one decides to walk in the Light.
God’s the Father, our king and creator
Faith redeemer, daily bread relator
Wear His yoke upon you, thee of meek heart
Living to love is a sacred fine art.
Do not touch what us unclean, said the Lord
Turn from dark to light with righteous accord
With clean mind and a heart that's truly pure
We belong in God's safe harbour for sure.
Heaven on earth, created by God's hand
Could anything be as grand as this land
People that here on this planet do dwell
Care for all things glorious God made well.
Ascend the Lords mountain of divine grace
View splendour of earth’s illustrious place
Believers, the sons and daughters out there
Will rest one day in ethereal care.
Born in Adam's sin, same as all mankind,
I was lost and unaware of my plight.
My wayward heart was desperately blind,
Then You came into my darkest night,
And showered me with Your holy light.
My Redeemer, You found me in my despair,
From brokenness You healed and set me free.
You lavished me with love and showed you care,
By purchasing my freedom on Calvary.
You shed your blood to pay sin's price for me.
There is no way I could ever repay,
The price You paid to save my very soul.
All you ask is for me to follow Your way.
To share Your love and walk by faith my goal,
My Redeemer can truly make you whole.
ALL, HAVE SIMILAR ENDING
Old, white haired, teeth missing
And what's left are not too good,
Every part of the body hurts
At one time or the other.
So what do you do?
Visit the doctor? No.
Just take it to the Creator
and the Redeemer.
Who I know loves us,
More than men ever could.
He has all the answers,
He counts the hairs on my head,
And I lose them also.
That is what sin has done.
My sin? Yes, and no too,
Sins of my ancestors have
Enfeebled them and me.
The way out is not as
Many men plan or think.
We lost our way, His way.
Yes, the way He intended
Is not the way we are,
Too much of the time.
Can we find our way back?
Yes, we can, if we will change.
If we will heed His voice,
And His written word,
We can find our way back.
Out of of all the confusion,
And mess men have caused,
Listening to their own
Deranged thinking.
Pride and selfishness,
The cause in the beginning.
So let's turn around,
Back space and follow
Him who knows us,
And how we were made.
He can make us to be
What He intended for us,
In the beginning.
And, we can end up
With joy everlasting!

Who knows, but before twas given
Twas answered, your prayer's request.
Placed within them, on whom foresees
The end of all troubles, rest.
For mankind are sinners from birth
spiritually dead unable to choose
needing a saviour from iniquity
for only God can bring good news.
So God sent his begooten son
The crippled lad stood beneath the bell tower
Rang The bell with all his might
With each strike.
The ashes cleared up..
The rope was the way
The child, the saviour
the massiah, the redeemer.
Abide in His will so wondrous
spreading the Gospel of salvation
exalting the omnipotent Saviour.
They spent his spirit to dwell with us
To show us the path
Thee who died a death so we lived a life
Is between us, between you, between me.

Why have I never seen before
A sun that shines this bright?
Why have I never known before
This peace I feel at night?
For so many years
The days were gray,
And the nights as black as coal…
With an agony
That loomed inside,
Torturing my heart and soul.
There was something missing,
Or something lost…
Something that made me incomplete.
And with each new day,
That emptiness
Festered lies and evil deceit.
But You never fled,
Always by my side,
And one day I felt You there…
Asking if You would still walk with me,
In a silent moment of prayer…
Since that day,
The gray is gone,
And for what was missing from my soul…
I no longer feel the need to search,
For, through You,
I now am whole.
My Precious Redeemer
When I think of where my Lord has brought me
and the terrible darkness I recall,
then in thankfulness I sing out to Him
as on my face before Him I fall.
Oh, Lord my God, my Savior
You are so far above us all,
why You chose a wretch like me to serve You so great
so short I know I fall.
Yet, I know that You like to display Your mercy
Your kindness, and faithfulness to,
such a precious Redeemer My God whom I serve
Master what else can I do for You?
My heart is so full of love now
for a Wonderful Eternal God,
with these lips of clay I will praise Your name
remembering I’m just made out of the world’s sod.

Is any other season merrier,
or more wonderful than Yule?
Christ, the Child is our Redeemer:
shouldn't we believe He came to rule?
Let's greet Him with songs and drums!
Let's follow the drummer boy who hums!
Bite-Size Poem # 30 Poetry Contest
" And even we Christians, although we have the Holy Spirit within us as a foretaste of future glory, also groan to be released from pain and suffering. We, too, wait anxiously for that day when God will give us our full rights as His children, including the new bodies He has promised us—bodies that will never be sick again and will never die." Romans 8:23(The Living Bible)
I say that Jesus is my Redeemer
As I read this scripture it brings such joy and hope
Each day battling pain and internal turmoil
Emotional turmoil mostly of my own making
I know my body the earthen vessel decays more each day
I know through Him my spirit grows a little with each battle
He died that He might redeem me from sins grip
That horrible enemy that puts us down into a miry pit
I, like Job, know that " My Redeemer lives"
Someday on this earth He will stand
All things will be right again
Thank God for His Redemption
Thank You, My Redeemer, Thank You
