Two things pierce the heart, one is beauty the other pain.


Why in life when things go bitter it is God whom we disdain.


Cant we see the rays of glory, love, compassion in His face.


When our hardened heart is wounded yet he reaches out in grace.


Life goes awry, hearts get wounded, yet our Savior calls us still.


From the right hand of the Father hear Him make this one appeal:


See My hands and feel my side, know that a ghost does not have flesh.


I took this on for you forever so that you could see MY face.


My love for you, it knows no ends, it pains Me just to see you lost.


Your life, My passionate desire, one thing that drove me to the cross.


Stretch out your faith and I will heal you, open the door and I’ll come in.


Only believe and see the glory that I always did intend.


 


God gave this to me within the struggles I’ve just been through.  Be encouraged.


 

Spread the love

    You are so right, Verious!  I wasnt directly thinking about Jesus’ home in me!  although I see the Paradox in it.  Something I will definately be meditating on.

    2 Timothy 1:6-14
    For this reason I remind you to kindle afresh the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline.  Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord or of me His prisoner, but join with me in suffering for the gospel according to the power of God, who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was granted us in Christ Jesus from all eternity,but now has been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel, for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle and a teacher. For this reason I also suffer these things, but I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed and I am convinced that He is able to guard  what I have entrusted to Him until that day. Retain the standard of sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus. Guard, through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us, the treasure which has been entrusted to you.
