STRENGTH

Snippet

“Deny your weakness, and you will never realize God's strength in you.” ― Joni Eareckson Tada

Scripture

You save the humble,
 but you bring down those who are proud.
 Lord, you give light to my lamp.
 My God brightens the darkness around me.
 With your help I can attack an army.
 With God’s help I can jump over a wall. Psalms 18:27-29 NCV

Song
Alone yet not alone by
Joni Erickson Tada


I'm alone, yet not alone.
God's the light that will guide me home.
With His love and tenderness,
Leading through the wilderness,
And wherever I may roam,
I'm alone, yet not alone.
I will not be bent in fear.
He's the refuge I know is near.
In His strength I find my own.
By His faithful mercies shown.
That so mighty is His shield
All His love is now revealed.
When my steps are lost.
And desperate for a guide,
I can feel his touch,
A soothing presence by my side.
Alone, yet not alone.
Not forsaken when on my own.
I can lean upon His arm,
And be lifted up from harm.
If I stumble, or if I'm thrown,
I'm alone, yet not alone.
When my steps are lost.
And desperate for a guide,
I can feel his touch,
A soothing presence by my side.
By my side!
He has bound me with His love,
Watchful angels look from above.
Every evil can be braved,
For I know I will be saved.
Never frightened on my own,
I'm alone, yet not alone.
I'm alone, yet not alone.

Sentence Prayer

Christ, as a light
Illumine and guide me
Christ, as a shield
Overshadow me,
Christ under me;
Christ over me;
Christ beside me
On my left and my right.
This day be within and without me,
Lowly and meek, yet all-powerful
Be in the heart of each to who I speak:
In the mouth of each who speaks unto me.
This day be within and without me,
Lowly and meek, yet all powerful.
Christ as a light:
Christ as a shield:
Christ beside me
On my left and my right .  Amen
