Courage

 
(Philippians 4:12-13 I know what it is to be in need, and know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.)

Lord! My God.

 

Lord! My God.

Healer of the broken,

Mender of hearts,

Counselor of angels,

Great are You in the

Hearts of Your people.

Worthy of all worthies

Are You in all of time.

 

Lord! My God.

Strength of the weak,

Keeper of our dreams,

Miracle of miracles.

Dazzling and glorious

Are the wonders of Your

Creation in all of its

Simple complexities.

 

Lord! My God.

Keeper of the Lamb,

Watchtower of the assembly,

Guardian of the eternal gate,

Come Lord! Come talk

To me. Teach me

Your wisdom and love.

 

Lord! My God.

Healer! Surgeon of life!

Generous giver of peace

And builder of life!

Come life giving God

And raise the lost

To new life in Your light.

Lead them from the darkness.

 

Lord! My God.

Music of the universe!

Symphony of time!

Sonnet of the spirit!

Make the song in my heart

Reach the depths

Of the living spirit of life

To well up in a finale of praise.

Lord! My God.

If only I could have the eyes

Of the angels to look at the

Beauty of eternity on high.

How puny and insignificant

All of our limited

World's beauty is when

Viewed with spirit and soul within.

 

Lord! My God.

Open my soul that

It may flow out and

Clear my clouded eyes.

Spirit of God, purest of love,

Cleanse and purify me

Before all of the people

Of God that they may know you.

 

Lord! My God.

Word of eternity!

Word of life everlasting!

Word of creation!

I am Yours my God.

I am fragile and delicate.

Take care of me Lord

Lest I fall and break.

 

Lord! My God.

Lord of life, Holiest of Holies,

Gentlest of the gentle,

Blessed are You of the blessed.

Make me an instrument

Of Your will that You might

Be pleased and glorified

In the eyes of Your servants.

Another Moontear image. This image is a favorite. The arm tattoos are not something I like but could not find a way to hide them effectively. It does, however, seem to be the thing today.

Courage

 

(John 16:33, Psalms 10:17, Psalms 69:32) How do you see courage? What is courage to you? Courage is not the opposite of fear but the triumph over it. The phrase "He pressed on despite his fear," says it all. Over our lifetimes we are faced with many challenges that also have our fears attached to them. We have all had our defeats in the face of fear and our victories over those fears. The Christian has something others do not, the knowledge that death has been defeated through Jesus Christ. (2 Timothy 1:8-10) The sufferings of this world are only temporary and should not be feared but faced head on. This time on earth is not a time of aging and death but a time of growth and birth. We are children yet to be born into the kingdom of heaven. Unlike the way we were born into this life without choice, we have the choice to live in eternity or to die in darkness. Fear is mostly the fear of failure. Failure is what can teach us to be victorious. Fear can also be the road to death in many ways. Take courage in the knowledge of death's defeat even though it may seem impossible and move forward toward immortality. (Romans 8:34-39)

This week I would like to share another Sarah Kay Precious Moments image.

That will do it for this week's post. Remember to always "Love The Details." God bless and keep you safe.
