Jeremiah 29:11-14

"For I know the plans I have made for you," declares the LORD. "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come to pray to me and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all of your heart. I will be found by you...and will bring you back from captivity".

Prayer

Dear LORD, I have a friend who is having a rough time, and even though I know the truth, only You can help him. LORD give him the strength to get through each day, and guide him down the right path. May he look to You for comfort, and call upon You for help. This song comes to mind, "Praise you in this stom"

and I'll Praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands
You are who You are
No matter where I am

Every tear Iv cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
Even though my heart is torn
I will praise you in this storm

Who Am I?

I am sitting here listening to Casting Crowns, and really began to listen to the words, ato ask myself, "Who am I?" I love the 1st verse:




Who am I?
that the LORD of all the earth
would care to know my name
would care to feel my hurt

Who am I?
that the Bright and Morning Star
would choose to light the way
for my ever wondering heart

Not because of who I am
but because of what youve done
not because of what iv done
but because of who you are

I am
a flower quickly fading
here today and gone tomorrow
a wave tossed in the ocean
a vapor in the wind
Still you
hear me when im calling
LORD you catch me when Im falling
and You told me who I am.
I am YOURS
I am YOURS

Who am I?
That the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
And watch me rise again

Who am I?
That the voice that calm the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me

Not because of who I am
But because what of youve done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who you are

I am
a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still you
hear me when I'm calling
Lord you catch me when I'm falling
And you told me who I am
I am yours

Not because of who I am
But because of what you've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who you are

I am
a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still you hear me when I'm calling
Lord you catch me when I'm falling
You told me who I am
I am yours
I am yours

Whom shall I fear?
Whom shall I fear
'Cuz I am yours
I am yours.

Ok, so apparently I love the whole song. This song speaks to me louder then any song I have ever listened to.

He Loves us All

My child, I love you
I love you inconditionally
I love you good or bad, with no strings attached
I love you like this because I know all about you
I have known you even before you were born
I know what I can do for you
I know what I want to do for you
My child, I accept you.
I accept you just as you are
You dont need to change yourself
I will do the changing when you are ready
I love you just as you are
Believe this, for I assure you that this is true
My child, I care about you
I care enough to do something about it
Remember this
I will help you when you need Me, all you have to do is ask
My child, I forgive you.
I forgive you and my forgiveness is complete
It is not like that of humans who forgive but not forget
I love you and My arms are open with love!
Do not carry your guilt another moment
I carried it all for you on the Cross
My Child
I love you. I accept you. I care about you. I forgive you.
Believe all of this, for i assure you it is true
