Peace isn't easy

Having peace, living in peace, being a peace maker. I'm always praying for it. I'm always longing to just "be still." But it's easier said than done.

My mind is always running. It's so hard to turn my brain off. Actually, I don't think it's possible to turn my thoughts off. So what to do?

Did you know that the word peace is mentioned in the Bible over 200 times? Obviously, that means that God cares about being peaceful. My favorite verse is where it defines peace as one "that transcends all understanding." Do you get the depth of hat verse? That means that we can't even fathom the kind of peace that God can give us if we ask.

That's what I'm praying for. God's peace. One day I will achieve that. Until then I'll keep praying...

Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. 

2 Peter 1:2

What am I listening to?

Confession: Sometimes I get obsessed with songs. I listen to one song over and over. I thought maybe I could share those songs with you. Today it is "Revelation Song". It totally puts me at ease. Here is a video of Kari Jobe singing and the lyrics below. Sit back, take a deep breath, lift your hands in worship, and relax.



Worthy is the,
Lamb who was slain
Holy, Holy, is He
Sing a new song, to Him who sits on
Heaven's Mercy Seat
[Repeat 2x]

(Chorus)
Holy, Holy, Holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and is, and is to come
With all creation I sing:
Praise to the King of Kings!
You are my everything,
And I will adore You…!
Yeah!

Clothed in rainbows, of living color
Flashes of lightning, rolls of thunder
Blessing and honor, strength and
Glory and power be
To You the Only Wise King,
Yeah

(Chorus)
Holy, Holy, Holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and is, and is to come, yeah
With all creation I sing:
Praise to the King of Kings!
You are my everything,
And – I - will - adore You!
Yeah!

Filled with wonder,
Awestruck wonder
At the mention of Your Name
Jesus, Your Name is Power
Breath, and Living Water
Such a marvelous mystery
Yeah...

(Chorus)
Holy, Holy, Holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and is, and is to come, yeah
With all creation I sing:
Praise to the King of Kings!
You are my everything,
And – I - will - adore You!

Holy, Holy, Holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and is, and is to come,
With all creation I sing:
Praise to the King of Kings!
You are my everything,
And – I - will - adore YOU…

(Chorus) (Repeat at a cappella)

Come up lift up His Name
To the King of Kings…
We will adore YOU Lord…
King of heaven and earth
King Jesus, King Jesus
Aleluya, aleluya, aleluya!
Majesty, awestruck Honor
And Power and Strength and Dominion
To You Lord,
To the King, to King
To the King of Glory

Your love always stays the same

My good friend, Ashley shared this post yesterday about Hallelujah. And it was amazing. But it introduced me to an artist and a song. The words in the song blew me away. (side note-I'm a words of affirmation person) And the artists life story blew me away. So I had to share on my blog too. I have just shared the song and the story behind the song. For more information on Heather Williams visit her website.

This video is the story behind the song.

And this video is the song with lyrics on screen.

Hope this blesses you as it did me.

Isn't this our cry everyday?? "Jesus, please come...please come today. I'm in need of your grace, today."

Praise God that His love always stays the same, yesterday, today, tomorrow - AMEN!

Songs of worship...

I have to tell you that I love worship music. I love to praise the Lord through songs. I don't know why but music has always had a special place in my heart. I even have an item on my bucket list that says "I want to sing on stage at my church". Who knows when that will ever happen :) But anyway, I am listening to the "Night of Worship at Buckhead Church right now online. It's a live stream. Yup thats right, I said live stream isnt my church amazing! I really do love technology and how far we've come. Back to my main point, I'm curious as to what your favorite worship song is? Please comment and let me know. Then i will write another post with my favorite one and the lyrics :)
Thanks-
