Mia Fieldes - There's A Reason [feat Dannielle Guglielmucci & Annie Garr...

My thorn brought forth a rose...

I've had a book called 'Steps to Christ' by Ellen.G.White for over a year but I've never thought about reading it.
Over the past two days I've been struggling with guilt over doubting God's omni-potent power due to learning various scientific theories. Although, I know I don't believe them at all...when you're surrounded by people bombarding you with so much information to make it sound like a fact, I slipped slightly when a doubt popped up. Although I discarded it with His help...the guilt didn't relieve me.
When I was down and upset, I prayed asking God to help me...the first thing I noticed was this book...something I've never picked up, I suddenly found my self reading through the first few pages...God is awesome, gracious, He is ready to forgive us if we are ready to be forgiven, He will help us through....
Although the world seems filled with thorns and thistles remember.... thistles bring forth buds and thorns, roses.
There is hope for us to be forgiven and helped through....God used this book to reassure me of my destiny and His glorious, unfailing love and His saving grace. He is an amazing God. He is omniscient...although He knows the choices you will make with your free will, He has preplanned solutions for us, to help us get back in the race...just like He saved this book for me, for now....from almost a year ago...He knows that I'll need it now!
Don't be dismayed and waste your time feeling guilty over what you did (again) but ask God for forgiveness, trust in Him to lead the way...and He will certainly help you get back in the race stronger and with a greater drive.

Swimming Through The Ocean

As I swim through this ocean called life, 

I trust in you to lead me through.

Sometimes the tides get restless and 

the waters try to sweep me ashore.

I will pursue as I know where I am headed,

you have made my course crystal clear.

The waves get stronger trying to take me away,

but Lord,

although I drift a little, you safeguard me.

They drown me with doubts about you,

but I know you will help me through.

One day, soon I know, I will be able to to be with you,

you chose me a billion years ago, and I know you have always loved me so.

Father forgive my weaknesses,

grant me strength in you, to be rooted, planted and pursue,

through each trial with you my Lord.

Thus I rejoice, as I know You've made a place for me in Heaven,

to be with You, one day Lord real soon.

Saving Grace

I'm walking with you my Lord through paths of every kind.

You're always beside me Lord guiding and lighting the way.

When life gets stormy and puddles form, I tend to slip and fall,

but you oh Lord never get tired to pull me up when I call.

Father please forgive me for my flesh's evil desires.

Your saving grace, I'm grateful for, as I know I am set free.

Save Them Oh Lord

My blood boils at the sight of their ignorance as tears flood my eyes.

They laugh and mock my trust in you but I know you’ll touch them soon.

You oh Lord, are patient, amazingly patient!

I love them and don’t want them to see peril as they deny your existence.

You gave them life Lord but still, their hearts are as hard as stone, their eyes do not see, or their ears hear.

Save them oh Lord, show them your unfailing love.

Don’t let them fall into the hands of the enemy but bring them closer to you.

Save them oh Lord, show them your never ending grace.
