New Year

elizabeth is away

Fred and katie are playing Call of Duty

Emily helped me at work today

Everything is different from last year...

But God, you are the same

help me to see our relationship from your eyes...a love that never changes

Not from my side where one moment I am up the next down

I feel you ...I feel alone

In Christ alone
n Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comforter, my All in All,
here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone! who took on flesh
Fulness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones he came to save:
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied -
For every sin on Him was laid;
Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain:
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave he rose again!
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me,
For I am His and He is mine -
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath.
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

Mighty God

In Isaiah we see the names of God
Wonderful
Counselor
Mighty God
Everlasting Father
Prince of Peace


This morning as my brother and sisters struggle with things, I am praying for the Mighty God... who created the universe by speaking...to reach down once again and meet us in this world. Fill us with wonder for who you are Lord Jesus, grant us your peace...
