Awakening

Awaken, it is a new day filled with hope and joy. Love surrounds all and peace fills the earth. Chains fall off and freedom reigns. One may ask why is this so? The answer is the Lord has come to save all and bring His wonderful light into the darkness. Death has no sting and everything is made brand new. Your sins are forgiven because His love saves.

He listens to the heart and knows the deepest and darkest places. He knows the passions and desires of the heart. He delights in His children and longs for them to succeed and carry out His will. He has great plans for His children, plans for a greater future that is prosperous and full of growth.

Now that the earth is awakened it must reflect Jesus Lord God's great light like the moon. Shine for Him and others will see the great light and love. It fills the soul and provides strength, healing, hope, and most importantly love.

Why has a savior as great as the Lord come to such a dark and lowly place? The answer is simple, because He loves us.

1 John 4:19

"We love because he first loved us."

How He Loves Us

David Crowder

He is jealous for me.

Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,

Bending beneath the weight of His love and mercy.

When all of a sudden,

I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,

and I realize just how beautiful You are,

and how great your affections are for me.

And oh, how He loves us.

Oh, oh how He loves us.

How He loves us all.

Yeah He loves us.

Oh how He loves us,

oh how He loves us,

oh how He loves.

We are His portion and He is our prize,

Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes.

If His grace is an ocean, we're all sinking.

And heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss,

And my heart turns violently inside my chest.

I don't have time to maintain these regrets when I think about the way,

That He loves us.

Oh how He loves us.

Oh how He loves us.

How He loves us all.

Yeah He loves us.

Oh how He loves us,

oh how He loves us.

Oh how He loves us all.

Psalm 37:4

"Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart."

Trust in Him who created and breathed life into all. Shine for the One who is forever love and forever faithful.
