Reach for the Stars


Reach for the Stars:

"When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained, What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?" (Psalms 8:3-4)

He is come, for the Lord God Almighty One took on the role of a Child - a Servant even unto the sentence of sin's death price. And here He comes now...

"I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star... And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely." (Revelation 22:16, 17)

A starry night's jubilee burns bright; the Saviour, our long awaited Christ. Oh Holy Messiah, You are a shining Star in this world so strayed far. We yearn for You... Up 'till Your debut, the hope we sought 'twas skew. Then You came down, so gentle and mild, for all mankind now reconciled.

The glorious night You came down and touched our broken state, Your restoring glory illumined our fallen fate. How gloriously You've healed our hurting hearts.

Now we raise our hands as we praise Thee, joyful and triumphant, our hope for all eternity. Our hearts shall forever reach up toward Thee... You shine brighter than all other stars in the sky. You're our desire, the Light that radiates our life now and forevermore... Hallelujah! What a Merry Christmas indeed!

Faith That He is Near Always

   One, of many things, for which I am very  grateful, is that the Lord is always near me. He is never far away. I can call on Him through prayer, and He will always listen. He genuinely cares for what I am worried about. No prayer is too small or unimportant, because we are God's children and He loves us all.    Call upon the Lord in times of need, and in times of joyfulness. He wants to commune with us. He desires our yearning for His presence. When we're longing for that "something more" He is the One that can satisfy. He is gentle and loving. He wants to be with you more than you can even imagine.    "The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth." ( Psalm 145:18 ) It pleases Him when we reach out to Him in desperation. Because He is The Creator of all things that exist, when He is our passionate desire, When He is the One thing we need , that's when we are complete. That is when we have peace, joy, and abundant life.

The Beauty and Wonder of Grace

The Beauty and Wonder of Grace: "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9) "And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins" (Ephesians 2:1) Before I came to You, I was lost and empty. Before Your miraculous mercy remade me, I was drowning in sinful darkness. You came to me in all my filthy shame, and Your grace has made me alive - anew. "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17) Newness, complete newness. This is how You have reformed me; You have transformed me. I stand here with lifted hands, surrendering my all to Your loving, caring, and trustworthy arms. "Cast your burden on the Lord, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved." (Psalms 55:22) "casting all your care upon Him, for
