Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand and marked off the heavens with a span, enclosed the dust of the earth in a measure and weighed the mountains on scales and the hills in a balance? Who has measured the spirit of the Lord, or what man shows him his counsel? Whom did He consult, and who made him understand? Who taught him the path of justice, and taught him knowledge, and...
As I crown You with glory, engrave Your name upon my heart.
Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight.
Romans 12:16
Humble me Lord. You came to humanity and have associated yourself with us. What i can do for my fellow brethren is nothing compared to what you have done for me. Allow me to be like you. Each person is precious in your sight. Help me to see like you do. Break me...
sin
“In the garden of Eden, sin was man wanting to be like God. Sin is man saying, “I don’t need you, God. I can be my own God.” Sin is independence from God. It wasn’t until I defined sin that I was able to see and understand why Jesus must be God, Lord, Master and Ruler in my life and heart. Before, I had asked Jesus to be my personal savior, but I never surrendered...
“We reflect what we revere, to our own ruin or to our own redemption.”
“Although my memory’s fading, I remember two things very clearly: I am a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior.” ― John Newton, Amazing Grace: Hymn
You continue to win me over.
Destructions working, they fight for my desire. They beckon me to come but I have set my eyes on you.
Your steadfast love has captured my heart breaking through the years of my shame. For I have set my heart towards you oh lord as I dwell in your courts forevermore. Others call my name and beckon me to come but I will always have eyes for only you.
I am my beloved’s and he is mine.

“He is an ever-shining sun; He is manna in unfailing supply; He is a rock in the desert, sending constant streams of life from His pierced side; the rain of His grace is always falling; the river of His bounty is ever-flowing, and the wellspring of His love is a constant tide. As the King can never die, so His grace can never fail. Every passing day we are the beneficiaries of a myriad of...
Lover of my soul I want to tell you, only you have all of me.
I cannot contain my adoration, I’m in love so desperately.
Down upon my knees, I’m lost in worship, humbled by Your majesty.
What is there to say? But how I love you. Thank you for forgiving me.
No one is as lovely as you are. There is no one else who has my heart.
Jesus, you have me completely, every breath that I...
Jesus, be my everything.
“Thou art my portion, O Lord.” Psalms 119:57
Look at thy possessions, O believer, and compare thy portion with the lot of thy fellowmen. Some of them have their portion in the field; they are rich, and their harvests yield them a golden increase; but what are harvests compared with thy God, who is the God of harvests? What are bursting granaries compared with him, who is the...
“Thus there will be three effects of nearness to Jesus - humility, happiness and holiness.”

A Challenge to Women
That all of your life—in whatever calling—be devoted to the glory of God.
That the promises of Christ be trusted so fully that peace and joy and strength fill your soul to overflowing.
That this fullness of God overflow in daily acts of love so that people might see your good deeds and give glory to your Father in heaven.
That you be women of the Book, who love and study and obey the Bible in...

Jesus, without you I am nothing. I amount to nothing. Only through your work on the cross do I have worth. As I am being conformed to your likeness, im starting to see through your eyes, and I can’t help but to see the worth you have longed to give to those you have chosen and also for them to see their infinite worth in your eyes because they are in Christ Jesus.
We imitate what we...
Don’t disregard your opinions, experiences, or thoughts to appease man.
Seek the Lord in all things. Wait and take of the living water til your soul is satisfied. Remember Gods faithfulness.
Throw yourself unto the foot of the cross.
My value as a person doesn’t depend on whether or not I am accepted or approved.
Colossians 3:3 “For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.”
Jesus, you are my Rock and my Redeemer. I look to you for you are my reward. I will not fear for you have me in your hand and will deliver me when you desire.
In my life, let your will be done. You can do anything with a life surrendered.
The result of repentance is freedom from guilt.
There is only one found worthy, Jesus.
