God knew what i needed to hear!

"God will never ask you to wait without giving you a promise, and God will never ask you to wait without there being purpose." Jeanne Stevens

I was watching 722 and the message was on waiting, something i defiantly needed to hear about, and that quote is what jumped out to me. That when God is waiting or asking me to wait, its not without a promise of He will be faithful and He will not ask me to wait without there being purpose in the waiting. Sometimes God does His most transforming work in our lives during the waiting process. I know that is true of my life. The times when God has worked in my life the most is during the waiting. My favorite saying by Louie Giglio is "Trust is not a passive thing, its an active thing." waiting on God is an active thing. As i wait and trust in God i need to be doing what He has asked me to do today. "Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness" Proverbs 37:3. While waiting on God i need to be faithful now and trust in His Faithfulness and in who He is!! i still need to continue to see Him with "all my heart,soul,mind,and all my strength." never let the waiting be something that draws you away from God let it be something that draws you to God!

"May the Lord direct your hearts into God's love and Christ perseverance." 2 Thess 3:5.

HOSANNA!!!

So God has been ROCKIN my world with this song "Hosanna" by Hillsong for the last few months. The meaning of Hosanna is what makes it to me such a POWERFUL song. the world Hosanna in the Hebew is translated to mean "please save or save now" or ive also seen it to mean "oh save." recognizing Jesus as the Messiah. When Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem in Matt 21:9 "The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, "Hosanna to the Son of David!" "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!" "Hosanna in the highest!" That is why this song is SO powerful to me. Because everytime you say Hosanna, so are crying out "Jesus save now, Jesus please save, Jesus you are the Messiah, Son of the living God" Here are the lyrics so you can click http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7SMUf6QcyQ and watch it.

[Verse 1]I see the King of glory
Coming down the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes, the whole earth shakes
I see His love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing, the people sing

[Chorus]Hosanna, hosanna
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna, hosanna
Hosanna in the highest

[Verse 2]I see a generation
Rising up to take the place
With selfless faith, with selfless faith
I see a near revival
Stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees, we're on our knees

[Chorus]
Hosanna, hosanna
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna, hosanna
Hosanna in the highest


[Bridge]Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like You have loved me
Break my heart for what breaks Yours
Everything I am for Your Kingdom's cause
As I walk from earth into eternity

Since we are surrounded
By such a great cloud of witnesses
Let us run
Let us run with perseverance
The race marked out
Let us make a way
For those who are to come
Those who are to come
Every generation
Every nation
Every tribe
Every tongue
They will sing
They will pray
That the world would sing...

HOSANNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
