Hosanna w/ Paul Baloche



I love this song by Paul Baloche!! As a wife, mommy of 6, part time teacher, friend, and life in pain, some days are just plain hard. If it wasn't for my faith in Christ I really do not know where I'd be today.


Songs of Praise just seem to draw me closer to my Lord. This one is no exception! I know when I see Him each morning in my devotion time and verses that goes with it, He gives me the strength to face my day, from the early morning to the late evening. Each day I want to start each and every morning turning to my God, My King, My Savior!! Even though I have been a Christian almost all my life, raised in a Christian home, went to church from birth till now, I have had times of being lost, a lost sheep of Christ, but He searched for me when I was lost and my heart turned back to Him.


It's also awesome to know that all my fears are washed away, this is hard for me to grasp sometimes. I have a timid and sometimes a very fearful heart. A fear I am not willing to share openly on a blog as of yet, maybe someday and maybe sharing would be part of healing. This song reminds me that all my fear is washed away and I just need to trust Him and just give Him all this fear that I hold onto.


My God, your God, He is the only God worthy of all our praises. He is out there for you to my friends. He can make you new, search His face and you can face your day without fear, with the strength to face what ever He brings your way. There is hope in our Lord, seek His face, turn to Him, He will save, cry out to Hosanna! He will hear you, just welcome Him, He can take the broken and make it new. He has for me, He will for you!

Jesus Freak - DC Talk lyrics

I get so excited knowing that I have a Savior that saves. I guess you can say I am a 100% Jesus freak. I was reminded today of the Jesus Freak song by DC Talk. It is so awesome to know that "my best friend was born in a manger"! How cool is that? So I am going to be a little silly and post a Jesus Freak video with words just to let everyone know that I just love my Savior, my best friend, my rock!

I just love this time of year and the excitement of Easter. Not for the candy or eggs or Easter bunny, but because of my celebration of the death and Resurrection of my Savior. I get so excited to know that my God saves and has forgiven all my sins. It is also awesome to know that some day I will be up in heaven with Him with out physical and emotional pain! I won't have to worry about my past ever repeating it self or what the future may hold.


I love the Lord my God so much, He has brought me through so much and still is bring me through stuff I could never imagine. I am hoping that I can be an encouragement to others who may be going through the fire and encourage them that Our God Saves and He will see you through it His way if you can just trust in Him and accept Him and His gift of salvation and love.


Over the next week I want to try and post some of the songs and verses that get me through my day in hopes that it may help and encourage someone out there.
