There is victory in Jesus. I discovered that when He took me just as I am. I was sinking, in a pit when His love lifted me. He was calling out to me softly and tenderly, but in my rebellion, I could not hear His voice.
I had heard stories of his amazing grace and of how Jesus paid it all. I needed a savior, a shepherd, a rock. He is my rock of ages, my solid rock. My Jesus loves me and He has a plan for me and because I chose to follow Him despite the circumstances, it is well with my soul.
I have set my eyes on the old rugged cross and I have decided that wherever He leads, I'll go. I will go confidently knowing that I will forever be leaning on the everlasting arms of Jesus. As He says onward, Christian soldier...I will go. If His eye is on the sparrow, how much more will He do for me? I can finally say to Him, have thine own way Lord always remembering that I need the every hour.
Jesus is coming soon and when he does, I'll fly away with Him. I surrender all means from beginning to end...surrender comes easier when I am standing on the promises and then I know that He will provide peace like a river.
How can we know we will make it? Only trust Him!
Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. Psalms 100:1
Within this blog are twenty two hymns that I grew up with. They are written into the piece and not identified by capitalization, punctuation or any other means. How many can you find?
