Yielded Vessel


isaiah_64-8.jpg (324×324)

I yield my heart, soul, ambitions and dreams

To align with your perfect will

I wait for your spirit to purify

And Thy Presence within me be filled

I surrender all the plans I have made

Even absent plans thereof

All the wanderings in the wasted years

And exchange them for your great love

Whatever the circumstances of my life

In the present or from my past

Gracious Lord, I ask to be molded now

Fit for your service that will last

Yes, the Potter knows the clay in His hand

How a new vessel must be shaped

Though the trials, heartache, and pain does break

In Your Image I must be made

 

A New Heart Of Song


Art Heart

I’m forgiven, all sin is gone

I’m forgiven, held the past too long

This day is new, I live in you

I’m forgiven, give glory to God

 

At times my past came to haunt me with shame

For trespasses done though Jesus did save

The secret’s surrendered-under His blood

It flowed to the sea forgotten by God

 

I’m forgiven, all sin is gone

I’m forgiven, no burden I don

In love and peace I stay all day

I’m forgiven, give glory to God

 

Does someone have a sorrowful soul?

Of sin you committed a long time ago

Believe in His word, it’s true what it says

Just forgive yourself and go on in His stead

 

You’re forgiven, all sin is gone

You’re forgiven, held the burden too long

This day is new, now live in His Truth

You’re forgiven, give glory to God

 

Perhaps there’s a soul who needs to be free

The wrong in your life, it binds and deceives

Confess and repent, make a one-eighty

Jesus died for you, won the victory

 

We’re forgiven, all sin is gone

We’re forgiven, a new heart of song

This day is new, we live in His truth

We’re forgiven, to praise and serve God!

 

Dear Readers,

I hope this poem-song blesses you. It is a testimony of God’s work  in my life and of how much He loves you and me.

 

 

 

 

 

My Hearts of Wonder


I have an obsession with hearts. People have watched me stop in my tracks to capture a photo on my cell phone and sometimes, when I have it with me, on my camera. I’ve all but grabbed my daughter’s tablet while she’s in the midst of an intense game. “Please, Rachel, I need to take a picture, right now!” (She loves me, though.)

Have you done that with your cell phone?  No doubt, there has been more than one time that a subject matter, whether it is your pet, child, hubby, grand kids or a glorious sunset, compelled you to grab the smart phone out of your pocket or purse for a masterpiece shot of photo art.

 

My hearts of Wonder gallery speak volumes of how Great God is and how much He loves each one of us uniquely.

Oh How He Loves You and Me.
