The Next Chapter - July 14, 2012

The Next Chapter


And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.  Philippians 1:6 NLT


Two steps forward, Three steps back.  When I am surrounded by my church and supports I am strong, when I am not I am weak.  I had a very busy work week, 5 and 1/2 days to late in the night work, work, work.  I get around non Christians and I do non Christian things.  I forgo his thought process and rely on my own mind.  As you have seen in the past, this is trouble.  With a capital T.   So now I sit here with my BFF and get filled with his spirit once again.  I realize I need a daily dose of my pitchers to fill me.  I need to draw on his word, and my understanding of knowing the plans he has for me.  I need to stop letting Satan tell me otherwise, and convincing me I got this by myself.  I need to rise above my understanding and continue to lean on him, and who he provides to help me.  Every thing happens for a reason, and a purpose to raise my understanding of he who is in me.  




"Rise" - Shawn McDonald

[Chorus]
Yes I will rise
Out of these ashes rise
From this trouble I have found
And this rubble on the ground
I will rise
Cause He Who is in me
Is greater than I will ever be
And I will rise

Sometimes my heart is on the ground
And hope is nowhere to be found
Love is a figment I once knew
And yet I hold on to what I know is true

[Chorus]
Yes I will rise
Out of these ashes rise
From this trouble I have found
And this rubble on the ground
I will rise
Cause He Who is in me
Is greater than I will ever be
And I will rise

Well I keep on coming to this place
That I don't know quite how to face
So I lay down my life in hopes to die
That somehow I might rise

[Chorus]
Yes I will rise
Out of these ashes rise
From this trouble I have found
And this rubble on the ground
I will rise
Cause He Who is in me
Is greater than I will ever be
And I will rise
