Even If
Recently I have been really feeling overwhelmed by who my Almighty Savior is and what He has done for me. As we enter into the Christmas month how much is truly focused on Jesus our Savior. It's not through Law but through Grace, through our Savior Jesus, we are saved. Understanding that the Creator of the Universe, the Creator of you and me, is the Creator of ALL.
Everything in life down to the intricate most detailed spec of life He created and controls. To even think differently has now taken His attributes, His Creation, His Sovereignty away. To say it wasn't Gods plan goes beyond and outside God's Truths.
Today, tomorrow, and each day that God has planned for my life I pray that I can out pour His Grace in all I say and do. I know I'm not perfect, and I can't even begin to slightly comprehend all that He has done for me. I pray my children see my heart and how it's God working through me, and their dad in all of our life lessons.
Christmas is a time to celebrate our Lord and Savior's birth Jesus Christ. I have already received the Best Gift of all. A gift I feel unworthy of, but a free gift that drives my heart to learning, and embracing my Savior more and more each day. I pray that I remember this everyday. That I Rejoice ALWAYS!!! in everything knowing it's in His plan. I can't see the big picture, however, I do know about the past and I am in the present. To have peace, I must trust and have faith and live off of His Scripture alone.
"Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." Colossians 3:15-17
Sometimes all we have to hold on to
Is what we know is true of who You are
So when the heartache hits like a hurricane
That could never change who You are
And we trust in who You are
Even if the healing doesn't come
And life falls apart
And dreams are still undone
You are God You are good
Forever faithful One
Even if the healing
Even if the healing doesn't come
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/k/kutless/even+if_21003553.html ]
Lord we know your ways are not our ways
So we set our faith in who You are
Even though You reign high above us
You tenderly love us
We know Your heart
And we rest in who You are
You're still the Great and Mighty One
We trust You always
You're working all things for our good
We'll sing your praise
You are God and we will bless You
As the Good and Faithful One
You are God and we will bless You
Even if the healing doesn't come
Even if the healing doesn't come
