The Awesome Holy Spirit!

You have made your own cisterns
You have built detestable alters
You try to know everything
Are you holier than thou?

I made the Heavens
And the Earth
There is no one like me
Not before or after
I am God and I love you
with an everlasting love!

Believe in My Son
He died for your sins
I loved you that much!
Repent
And turn
From your wicked ways
Know that I am there
A waiting for your call

~A Servant of God

O, My Soul

 One of my favorite things to do is worship the Lord! I know I'm far from where I wanna be with Him but when I worship Him things change. I'm no longer looking at the things of the world, but my eyes are fixed on Him! I'm so grateful for the people and the Holy Spirit who have taught me about worship. I've learned so many things (and still learning), but I'm at a place in my walk where its hard to worship...and I heard this song today by Matt Redman called "10,000 Reasons" and these are some of the lyrics:

"Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name

The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning
It's time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass, and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing when the evening comes"

  The Lord  gives us the Holy Spirit and He teaches us all things! The song might be different in the seasons we face, but look at the Psalms! They express many subjects! But the song still remains no matter what we face! The Lord is worthy and His faithfulness never changes! My season doesn't change His goodness, so there is always a reason to rejoice and praise Him! The song goes on to say: 

"You're rich in love, and You're slow to anger

Your name is great, and Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find"

 He is good! He is still God! I'm grateful for the many times He's shown me that (and continues to show me). Worship is a response of who He is, I pray that my heart and worship are pleasing before Him. So, here is the song that made me wanna fall at His feet in worship! I hope it touches you like it touched me!

Just Keep Going! Just keep Going!

 I've really been thinking on some of my 2012 New Years Resolutions, and I can't say I've accomplished any of them! (Like getting my licenses, getting a job, and sharing my testimony). I've done a lot of other cool things (like witness and start this blog and travel by myself for the first time), but none of my New Year's Resolutions. I have the bigger picture in mind, but no goals on how to accomplish them...Sometimes it's not good just to have ambition. Sometimes discipline and accountability are the best motivators. I have so many plans and dreams but none of them are ever going to be fulfilled if I don't start making effort and wanting to see results... My heart's desires won't be fulfilled until I start doing something. (If my way is committed to Him I don't have to worry about things, but there's a time to get up and go do.) God placed them in me and He desires to use me to see them get accomplished.

 For example, my love for missions are only a platform for God to push me in the right direction. People are important everywhere! So instead of my ideas of going to a certain place (cough, cough...Africa and Colombia) lol God can use me right here, today! So I can start preparing and helping out the people in my community. My plans are in God's hands and His time. I'm going to start pushing myself and trusting in God to help me accomplish the dreams He's placed inside me... So what motivates you to keep pushing on and press toward the goal?
