I need not fear the winds of change. I can even change embrace. As long as I stay anchored in God and daily seek His face.
The Winds Of Change
The winds of change are blowing.
What will come of it I have no way of knowing.
So I will sit at Your feet and wait and pray.
I will put my hope and trust in You everyday.
I know that my life is in Your hands, as is the lives of my sisters and brothers.
I know by putting our trust and Hope in You we reveal You to others.
So I pray that as the winds of change blows.
That You in me will be all that shows.
Help me to be strong.
Use me to bring others along.
Don't let the winds of change blow me off the course You have planned.
Anchor me deep in You and uphold me with Your Mighty Hand. Amen.
Worship Leader
Last Sunday there was an announcement that our worship leader is leaving. We will all miss him, I know I sure will. Sometimes people in ministry become very tired and need a rest and refreshing time. Also we were told that another would fill in as worship leader until we get a new one. It is so good how God always provides for us. I feel very fortunate that even at home God provides me with a worship leader, The Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit has filled my heart over the years with tunes and words of praise and worship. Some of them you have seen on my web pages in the poem section. With out the tunes of course because I can't write music. The Holy spirit also has ministered to me every day in many other ways too. As I study God's word He has been my bible study teacher. As I talk to God about things that are going on in my life He has been like a pastor; guiding, comforting, advising, and leading me to Jesus and into all truth. During prayer times He has put in my heart what and how to pray, and prayed with me and through me, thus taking on the roll of an elder. When I am about to go astray or when I have done wrong He speaks to my conscience; as a Christian brother or sister would. I have read in the bible that there are ministering angels, and no doubt when I have need of them God provides them too. Yes my heart is sad that our worship leader is leaving. But I can't help being a little excited too. Because God is such a good provider. Who knows what direction God will take us in with the new worship leader. Who knows how God will use the next worship leader, to bring us even closer to Him and to show us even more of Himself. In churches all over our area there is the winds of change blowing. May God bless that wind and use it in a mighty way. May He rule and reign in the midst of it. I pray it brings Him glory and honor in such a way that many will be drawn to Him, and that none can ignore Him any more. Amen
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall fallow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Psalm 23:1-6
