Jesus Savior Pilot Me

Jesus Savior Pilot Me


Jesus, Savior, pilot me

Over life's tempestuous sea

Unknown waves before me roll

Hiding rock and treacherous shoal

Chart and compass come from Thee

Jesus, Savior, pilot me



As a mother stills her child

You can hush the oceans wild

Boisterous waves obey Thy will

When You say to them, Be still

Wondrous Sovereign of the sea

Jesus, Savior, pilot me



When at last I near the shore

And the fearful breakers roar

Grant me and the peaceful rest

Then, while leaning on Your chest

May I hear You say to me

Fear not, I will pilot thee






Today that song by Edward Hooper and redone by Robbie Seay Band was sung. It reminded me that Jesus is at the head of it all. No matter where you go or what you do. All we can do is cry out to Him to help us follow Him. He has to guide us...we are prone to wonder and leave the faith we love. Lord Hold on to us! Last night I faced the fact that I suck at this entire following after God like He is the love of my life. I realized that there is a huge amount of failure on my part and everyones part to follow Him. He is the very one that I want to follow intimately...yet I struggle. I fight and lose, and feel like a failure. God take over and help me. Here are some more words to help you see what I am feeling.


40 Days by Mark Schultz




Lord, I came to the mountaintop

To be with You

I felt Your grace falling down like rain

And I was made new



But there are times like now when I'm all dried out



And it's like 40 days out in the desert

Feeling like I'm lost forever

And crying out for You

But in these 40 days I'm going to seek You

With my heart because I believe You

Have brought me to this place

These 40 days



Lord, Your ways are not my own

But I trust You

Lord, You say, "You are not alone,

For I am with you"



But there are times like now when You can't be found



And it's like 40 days out in the desert

Feeling like I'm lost forever

And crying out for You

But in these 40 days I'm going to seek You

With my heart because I believe You

Have brought me to this place

These 40 days



'Cause You are with me

You never leave me

Even when my world turns upside down

'Cause there are times like now when I will

Trust somehow



And it's like 40 days out in the desert

Feeling like I'm lost forever

And crying out for You

But in these 40 days I'm going to seek You

With my heart because I believe You

Have brought me to this place

These 40 days

Who Throws a Shoe???

The shoe thrower is asking for a pardon. I think in my own opinion that because of Bush and Bush's administration even though unpopular are the reasons he was able to throw that shoe in the first place. If the man was not living in a democracy now He would have been killed or tortured for doing that. I think that the man should serve time for it to show just like in America that democracy is great, but there are boundaries and things to abide by. Responsibility is a huge ordeal! Don't pardon Him!

PLACED IN THE LIGHT

PLACED IN THE LIGHT
MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST DECEMBER 26


"If we walk in the light, as He is in the light the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin." 1 John 1:7

To mistake conscious freedom from sin for deliverance from sin by the Atonement is a great error. No man knows what sin is until he is born again. Sin is what Jesus Christ faced on Calvary. The evidence that I am delivered from sin is that I know the real nature of sin in me. It takes the last reach of the Atonement of Jesus Christ, that is, the impartation of His absolute perfection, to make a man know what sin is.

The Holy Spirit applies the Atonement to us in the unconscious realm as well as in the realm of which we are conscious, and it is only when we get a grasp of the unrivalled power of the Spirit in us that we understand the meaning of 1 John 1:7, "the blood of Jesus Christ cleanseth us from all sin." This does not refer to conscious sin only, but to the tremendously profound understanding of sin which only the Holy Ghost in me realizes.

If I walk in the light as God is in the light, not in the light of my conscience, but in the light of God - if I walk there, with nothing folded up, then there comes the amazing revelation, the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses me from all sin so that God Almighty can see nothing to censure in me. In my consciousness it works with a keen poignant knowledge of what sin is. The love of God at work in me makes me hate with the hatred of the Holy Ghost all that is not in keeping with God's holiness. To walk in the light means that everything that is of the darkness drives me closer into the centre of the light.

Happy Birthday Jesus!

Even though Jesus birthday was most likely NOT in the dead of winter and the wise men never made it to the stable where Jesus was born, but later....I wish to say Happy Birthday Jesus! I just got home from my vacation and I got sick last night *yeah on Christmas eve* but it was still awesome. I hope that everyone had a great Christmas like I did. God is good...All the time...

Great Times...

So I am greatful for the great time that I spent with someone that has been a friend of mine for a while. We lost touch but both got to come home for Christmas and I am so happy that at least one day was spent with my friend "Billy". I have been looking forward to this break for a long time and getting away from the big D now because it was just time to get away from the norm. So far this trip has been amazing. I was reminded tonight of how God works in so many ways and got to hear of how He works in other people's lives and it excites me. God help us to try to follow you, even when we struggle. Thanks Billy if you read this for the great time... This is the video I told you about and for the rest of you please watch it. So far I have not made it through this video without crying. God is so amazing and He is working His ways in everyone's lives. Glad that I get to see that everyday somehow.

I Saw The Light

I just wanted to give props to David Crowder Band for the amazing stuff that they do. If you don't know who Crowder is then check him out and google it up!!! He doesn't do bluegrass or old country those are just remakes...However you will definately recognize the songs that he has done and how awesome his music is as well!

The Great Fight II

I felt that there needed to be a follow up to the blog that I posted a couple days ago. I had said things about "The Great Fight" and how lately I had seen the battle in my own life of sin nature versus the Righteousness that God has now bestowed upon me as a believer in Him. It is difficult to think about sometimes because sometimes we don't even notice that we just give in. Sometimes as believers we get so used to living the life that we have that we just give in without even thinking about it. Where do I see that? I see it in my life until the past few months. In my life sin was there in the shadows and though I felt in my heart it needed to go and felt the call of God for it to go I never truly did anything about it. Sometimes I would have an occasional battle to try to get out or away of sin, but otherwise many times I didn't think about it. It was easy and I just fell in. With that said we can see now we just fall into sin. Now what about our lives in general. Are we the same way? God gave me huge passions and huge desires to do things that are amazing in ministry, but I have yet to stand up and fight like I need to to get going toward those things. How can we do this? How can we sit back everyday and not fight? In the past few months and especially since God turned my world upside down I have for the first time realized something. The sin nature will always be there. The life of comfort will always be there. I will always have the temptation to fall into the cracks of sin or into the sea of undiscipline and be unfruitful and also not care about anything. From what I can see in John 10:10 "The thief comes only to kill, and steal and destroy; I (Jesus) came so that you may have life, and have it abundantly." we are in Jesus able to have life more abundant. What does that mean though? I believe this life more abundant means that our life is awesome and that with Christ it will be amazing. That is not it though for all of you tele-evangelist fans, it also means that everyday is a battle and every day we go to the battle lines. We are never stopping to smell the roses and have a little break....we are always at battle. We are always at battle with sin nature and should give it to God and rest in Him. We are always at battle for mediocrity which we should let Jesus control and just run after Him. There are no excuses in the end of why we were lukewarm or just ok all of our life. There are no excuses for desciding to just go ahead and not fight sin for a couple days and indulge. God calls us to serve Him and no other. What I have said from the start is this, "Everything good is worth fighting for. Everything that is worth something will be hard to get." So in your own life don't ever just give up on something, always battle. No matter the circumstance, it is worth the fight if God has put you up to it. Everything that is worth anything to us will always be marred by sweat and tears.
