Made to praise

Thank God for using Ian today to share this powerful message with the children. I was there and I thank God for the truths communicated in this sermon.

'I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.' (Psalm 139:14)


No matter how imperfect I am, I am specially made by God. I am fearfully, which means made with great respect and carefully, made. I am wonderfully, which means full of wonder, made.

Each person in this world is fearfully and wonderfully made by God. May I respect the people whom I come into contact with. May I stand in awe and wonder whenever I fix my eyes upon others, knowing that God made them.

'So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.' (Genesis 1:27)


I am made in God's image so I must reflect God.
Have I been reflecting Him in my life?

'This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.' (Psalm 102:18)


We are made to praise Him. I really want to praise You.

Wake up call

One day is all it takes for God to send a wake up call to my life.

'It's over. I had enough of you!' God seems to be telling me.
'It's time for you to wake up.'
'I have to do this.'
'I have to break you down.'

The messages today and the worship was so powerful, so direct. It's almost like God speaking to me. I broke down, twice.

God's greatness

My weakness

So vast, so wide

It's been a long ride

Straying away

Going my own way

Embracing sin

Empty within

Enough is enough

It's been really tough

Broke down today

Tears flowed all the way

He spoke to me

So loving is He

He welcomed me back

And clean up the wreck

Gave me hope

Allowing me to cope

It's not easy

Things are kind of fizzy

The future is unknown

But I know I'm not alone

Yes it is painful

And I'm sorrowful

But God is so wonderful

And I want to be faithful

I don't want to fall again

A new chapter of life to begin

I know He will lead me

I want it to be no longer I, but we
