Steady Hope

Psalm 130:5

New International Version (NIV)

⁵ I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits,
    and in his word I put my hope

Captured effortlessly 
That's the way it was 
Happened so naturally 
I did not know it was love 
The next thing I felt was 
You holding me close 
What was I gonna do? 
I let myself go 

And now we're flyin' through the heavens
I hope this life will last forever 

I've been waitin' for you 
It's been so long 
I knew just what I would do 
When I heard your word
You filled my heart with a word 
Ya gave me freedom 
You knew I could not resist 
I needed Jesus 

And now we're flyin' through the heavens
I hope this life will last forever 
Oh oh oh oh 

[CHORUS:] 
Ain't nobody 
Loves me better 
Makes me happy 
Makes me feel this way 
Ain't nobody 
Loves me better than Jesus

I wait for right time to come 
To praise your name 
I can't believe I'm the one 
I was so lonely 
I feel like no one could feel 
I must be dreamin' 
I want this dream to be real 
I need this feelin' 

I make my praise upon your name
And know this life will last forever 

[CHORUS] 

At first you put your arms around me 
Then you put your word around me 
I can't resist this sweet surrender 
On a life so warm and tender 
We stare into each other's eyes 
And what we see is no surprise 
Got a feeling most with treasure 
And a love so deep we cannot measure 

[CHORUS]

Jesus the Ghostbuster!

We are human and there are going to be many things in life that will scare us but christ is REAL!. So when you get scared like the disciples who thought the resurrected Jesus was a ghost, you rest assured he is real and will protect you! AMEN



Luke 24:37-41
The Message (MSG)
36-41 While they were saying all this, Jesus appeared to them and said, “Peace be with you.” They thought they were seeing a ghost and were scared half to death. He continued with them, “Don't be upset, and don't let all these doubting questions take over. Look at my hands; look at my feet—it’s really me. Touch me. Look me over from head to toe. A ghost doesn't have muscle and bone like this.” As he said this, he showed them his hands and feet. They still couldn't believe what they were seeing. It was too much; it seemed too good to be true.

Ghostbusters Theme Song

Jesus Your My Everything

Shelia has been calling me a junkie for Christ. I need my fix of Jesus everyday for my life to go right. So for today song I came up with Barry White You're The First, The Last, My Everything. I do not own any right to this song. 

"You're The First, The Last, My Everything"

My first, my last, my everything

And the answer to all my dreams

You're my sun, my moon, my guiding star

My kind of wonderful, that's what you are

I know there's only, only one like you

There's no way they could have made two

You're all I'm living for, your love I'll keep forevermore

First, you're the last, my everything

In you I've found so many things

A love so new, only you could bring

Can't you see it's you? You make me feel this way

You're like a first morning dew on a brand new day

I see so many ways that I can love you 'til the day I die

You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a dream

You're the first, the last, my everything

I know there's only, only one like you

There's no way they could have made two

Jesus, you're my reality, but I'm lost in a dream

You're the first, you're the last, my everything

Always on time!

One of the awesome things that I love about Jesus is that he is always there time after time. So my song to share today is time after time by Cyndi Lauper.  My scripture is from Matthew 6:25-27 about not having to worry, cause god is always there.

Do Not Worry

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[e]?

"Time After Time"

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion -
Is nothing new
Flashback - warm nights -
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time after -

Sometimes you picture me -
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said -
Then you say - go slow -
I fall behind -
The second hand unwinds

[Chorus:]
If you're lost you can look - and you will find him
Time after time
If you fall he will catch you - he'll be waiting 
Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has 
Turned to gray
Watching through windows - you're wondering
If I'm OK
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time -

[Chorus:]
If you're lost...

You said go slow -
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds -

[Chorus:]
If you're lost...
...Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time

Time after Time - Cyndi Lauper

I need you Lord

I choose this song to start off because 3 and a half years ago I was begging God to come into my life and fix me.  I needed him any way I could get him, he came and saved me. From that point on I have been his child. That why I am starting with this song. I have no right to this song and I am not using it for profit. 

You can reach me by railway, you can reach me by trailway
You can reach me on an airplane, you can reach me with your mind
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here, just - get here if you can

You can reach me by sail boat, climb a tree and swing rope to rope
Take a sled and slide down the slope, into these arms of mine
You can jump on a speedy colt, cross the border in a blaze of hope
I don't care how you get here, just - get here if you can

There are hills and mountains between us
Always something to get over
If I had my way, surely you would be closer
I need you closer

(interlude, then repeat bridge)

You can windsurf into my life, take me up on a carpet ride
You can make it in a big balloon, but you better make it soon
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here, just - get here if you can

I don't care how you get here, just -- get here if - you can.

Song Change

Hello all 

This month we are doing a song change. Meaning that we will take song that says one thing and change them speak to God.  Here is an example: 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7i4DUIKM9l0

Jesus, higher then all Angels!!!

Happy September 2013!
This week a co-leader Gwen had a brilliant idea, given to her by the spirit. It is to find a non-christian intended song an reword it as a song for or about what we believe.  No there are many songs that don't need any editing at all so it is really how the song touches you.
Also along with your song a scripture or passage that explains how you feel. Today I share my edited song "angels" by Robbie Williams and verse:

Hebrews 13:5
English Standard Version Anglicised (ESVUK)
5 Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.

"Jesus"

Original "Angel" by Robbie Williams

For no commercial use intended 

I sit and wait
Does a savior contemplate my fate
And he know
The place where I'll go
When I leave this world
'cos I have been told
That salvation lets my heart unfold
So when I'm lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel that I'm alone
I'm loving Jesus instead

[Chorus]

And through it all he offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall

Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call he won't forsake me
I'm loving Jesus instead

When I'm feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I'll always be blessed with love
And as the feeling grows
He breathes flesh to my bones
And when I feel alone
I'm loving Jesus instead

[Chorus]

And through it all he offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call he won't forsake me
I'm loving Jesus instead

[Repeat Chorus]

Angel - Robbie Williams
