"The great thing about faith in GOD
is that it keeps a man undisturbed in the midst of disturbance" (Oswald Chambers).
UNDISTURBED.
UNSHAKABLE.
UNSWERVINGLY.
Now that is
FAITH
that can not see,
but KNOWS GOD is here
and
knows that you are found by
JESUS~
"Rejoice with ME; I have found MY lost sheep" (Luke 15:4-6).
And at the moment you look up and see HIS eyes looking right into yours.
You can only cry life changing tears
because HE sees you
and reaches out HIS hand
so that HE can do what you can't do.
And the only thing HE asks is for you to
COME~
"Come to ME. Get away with ME and you’ll recover your life. I'LL show you how to take a real rest. Walk with ME and work with ME—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.
Keep company with ME and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly” (Matthew 11:28-30)
The hard just got easy because JESUS did the hard part
and all we have to do is
COME
and JESUS will do the rest~
"I can do all things through CHRIST
who gives me strength" (Philippians 4:13)
Because HE does the IMPOSSIBLE that you can never do on your own
that takes you
from point A to get point B
when the distance seems the whole alphabet away.
But what if the problem is your COMING.
You legs feel like they weigh a ton,
just as heavy as your heart is.
But HE keeps asking you to COME~
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest"*
And you wonder why HE isn't going away.
Why does HE want you?
But the question really is about
why don't you want HIM.
Does DOUBT cloud your mind so much
that you can't even fathom why
JESUS would be so persistent
to continue to chase little 'ole you
when there is a whole world filled with so many other people.
Because that is who JESUS is.
HE is about the
ONE~
EVERY ONE~
and that means you & me & everyone else~
“Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t HE leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until HE finds it? And when HE finds it,
HE joyfully puts it on HIS shoulders and goes home.
Then HE calls HIS friends and neighbors together and says,
‘Rejoice with ME; I have found MY lost sheep’ (Luke 15:4-6)."
And at the moment you look up and see HIS eyes looking right into yours.
You can only cry life changing tears
because HE sees you
and reaches out HIS hand
so that HE can do what you can't do.
And the only thing HE asks is for you to
COME
and keep
COMING~
"Keep company with ME and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly” (Matthew 11:30)
The hard just got easy because JESUS did the hard part
and all we have to do is
COME
for
"I can do all things through CHRIST
who gives me strength" (Philippians 4:13)
Because HE does the IMPOSSIBLE that you can never do on your own.
UNDISTURBED FAITH
UNSHAKEABLE FAITH
UNSWERVINGLY FAITH
is how we
RUN THE RACE
and
"SPEAK TO THE MOUNTAIN"
(listen to the song below)
