Worthy of Praise

Oh, Lord, You are worthy of praise. 
How You nit me together in my mother's womb and knew me before I took my first breath. 

Oh, Lord, You are worthy of praise. 
How you've seen me take my first steps and walked beside me throughout my life. 

Oh, Lord, You are worthy of praise. 
How my ears hear the melodic songs of birds in the morning and the familiar sound of my son's laughter throughout the day. 

Oh, Lord, You are worthy of praise. How my delicate eyes see the blue, expansive sky and the many shades of humanity You made in Your very image. 

Oh, Lord, You are worthy of praise. How my body can feel the gentle, cool breeze of Spring and the warm, loving embrace of my wife. 

Oh, Lord, You are worthy of praise. How I can smell the wonderful fragrance of a rose and catch a scent that brings to mind of fond memories from the past. 

Oh, Lord, You are worthy of praise. How my tastebuds can distinguish sweet from sour and enjoy a delectable meal. 

Oh, Lord, You are worthy of praise. How I've been fearfully and wonderfully made; who is like You, Lord? 

Oh, how I adore the Potter that formed this mold of clay; my body is Yours for worship and from my lips will proceed praises of You til my days are numbered and even forevermore in the hereafter! 

Inspirational Bible Verses: 


Jeremiah 1:4-5 NKJV


Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying: "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations." 

Psalm 139: 13-16 ESV


For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. 

Isaiah 64:8 NKJV


But now, O LORD, You are our Father; We are the clay, and You our potter; And all we are the work of Your hand.

The Heavy Hand That Frees

How marvelous and instructive is your Hand, Lord. It’s the same gentle Hand that puts my heart at ease and its the same mighty Hand that rebukes me. O’ where would I be without your Heavy Hand, Father. A lost and miserable man would I be; wandering through  the desert with no hope in sight seeking for water and not finding it.  O’ how strong is your conviction when your Heavy Hand is upon me; such a heavy, intense weight is placed on my soul.  How my flesh wants to ignore, defy, and flee it, but Your  Holy Spirit whispers to me that I be still and come back to You. Yes, Your Heavy Hand shows me the wicked error of my ways.  Your Heavy Hand reveals how my sins try to disconnect me from You. But your Heavy Hand won’t let me go because I am your's, Lord.  Just as a father disciplines the son in whom he delights, so it is  when Your Hand is over me. Thank you, Abba! You rebuke those that you love; ones that You call Your children. Father, Your Hand helps me to repent of my sins and gui

Worship

Glory be to the Father who deserves all honor and praise. It is He whom I adore and worship, and it is His name that is above all which I will raise.  The One who is faithful and true; He will never leave me. His mercy has kept me throughout my life, it's powerful and endless like a mighty sea.  Who is like our God? He is good and just. A man of unclean lips I am; I revere You, Lord, for I am merely dust.  I bow to the One who is truly worthy. The Creator of the universe and all that is earthly.  Holy is Your name Lord; You are beyond my limited comprehension. It is you that my heart is fixed to, oh Lord, how you've straightened my direction.  The King who was slain for my sins; I am yours til my dying breath. For nothing can separate me from His love, no man or angel nor height or depth. Come and let us worship the One who deserves our all. The time is near when every knee will bow and every tongue will confess Jesus Christ is Lord for He alone is Lord of all.  Inspirational B

Finding your Purpose

Good evening everyone. I pray that everyone has had a good and productive week. Today, marks a special day. A new member and I were announced as new deacons at our church. I had explained to my pastor a couple weeks ago that I was ready to be a deacon. It's funny because for quite some time, the Lord has put it in my heart and mind to become a deacon. However, I did not feel ready for such a responsibility. What I now realize is that I did not have a closer walk with God, nor did I have enough faith in the Lord that he would guide me through the process of being a deacon. I was mostly scared and nervous of what my tasks and responsibilities would be, and if I would truly be up for it. The one thing that I can be grateful for is that the Lord will accomplish things in his time. We simply have to be faithful and patient and know he is going to bless us in the right time. I never knew though, that I would ever take such a step as this. The thought of being a deacon simply never really
