Crucified With Christ

  When you decide to live for people's acceptance, that's when you'll die from their rejection. Don't. Just let that light shine:-) you are crucified with Christ. 

Don't look at situations or circumstances. That's easy to do. Just believe what God said. And that settles it you're made new... I took a long night drive....rolled every window down. I let the music blare, cranked up the sound. Sometimes I need a break from everything that's on my mind. When I can't even pray.... (Which is hard to do sometimes).. I just want to sing at the top of my lungs. I just want to dance and sing your praise everyday And let you come to me when Im confused and lost my way:( I'm sorry Lord for always letting you down. I feel worn and defeat. I can’t seem to get back on my feet. Lord you’re always the same, you never change. But my feelings seem to, my feelings do. I never wanna follow them, I wanna follow you! Lord when I look at you, my tears just melt away. A peace comes over me. And I don't feel afraid. Lord when you look at me, I know I'm not alone. My spirit soars above the pain my heart as ever known. Hold me. Don't let go. I need you with all my heart and soul. There is nothing I will face without the grace to see me through. Lord when I look at you , the world becomes so small. The burdens that I carry. I can let them fall. Lord I wanna be where you are. So if you want to go up to the mountains. If you want to walk upon the sea. If you travel through the deepest valley. Then that's where I want to be. Take me with you. I know that you heal the brokenhearted, I've been there, I know that you reach for lonely souls. You always love where hate is planted and that's where I want to go. Take me with you into heavenly places. I want to see some old familiar faces. You have told me ill no longer cry Someday I will be completely whole oh I know that when I go you'll take me with you by and by. Into your loving arms I'll be relieved and safe. But until then please give me strength to keep running this race. Til I see your face. You know how I said singing keeps me going so does writing! Writing about my Lord. He speaks through me and gives me the words. He knows what's in store. And when I reread it over an over it gives me a desire to keep pressing toward this reward ... The battle is won. And he knows each one. Like an eagle I will soar. There are no unknown soldiers in the army of The Lord. Keep fighting.
