JESUS

Snippet

I want neither a terrorist spirituality that keeps me in a perpetual 

state of fright about being in right relationship with my heavenly 

Father nor a sappy spirituality that portrays God as such a benign 

teddy bear that there is no aberrant behavior or desire of mine 

that he will not condone. I want a relationship with the Abba of 

Jesus, who is infinitely compassionate with my brokenness and at 

the same time an awesome, incomprehensible, and unwieldy 

Mystery. ” Brennan Manning

Scripture

“You are worthy to take the scroll

and to open its seals,

because You were slaughtered,

and You redeemed  people 

for God by Your blood

from every tribe and language

and people and nation. 

You made them a kingdom 

and priests to our God, 

and they will reign on the earth.” Revelation 5:9,10 HCSB

Come On Jesus  Tray Michaels

Come on, Jesus, do what You do in my life

Verse 1

                 

You make beauty from ashes, You break all addictions

Restore the broken hearted, and love the rejected

You fed the five thousand with two loaves of bread

You calmed the sea and storm with just the words You said

Chorus x4

Come on, Jesus, do what You do in my life

Verse 2

         

You broke the back of Satan when you took the keys from hell

               

You conquered death so we could have eternal life as well

        

You’ve come to set the captives free you paid the price on Calvary

     

With your grace and mercy oh Lord start with me

Chorus 

Bridge  

Won’t you start with me   Won’t you start with me 

Sentence Prayer

When I am lost and lonely,

Jesus, remember me.

When worry threatens to crush my spirit,

Jesus, remember me.

When my words wound someone I love

Jesus, remember me.

When I treat others with contempt, disdain, or worse,

Jesus, remember me.

When you come into your kingdom,

Jesus, remember me.

Welcome me Home.  Amen!
