Daddy God

A song by D C Talk

What if I stumble?
What if I fall?

Is this one for the people?
Is this one for the Lord?
Or do I simply serenade for things I must afford?
You can jumble them together, my conflict still remains
Holiness is calling, in the midst of courting fame

Cause I see the trust in their eyes
Though the sky is falling
They need Your love in their lives
Compromise is calling

CHORUS:
What if I stumble, what if I fall?
What if I lose my step and I make fools of us all?
Will the love continue when my walk becomes a crawl?
What if I stumble, and what if I fall?

What if I stumble, what if I fall?
You never turn in the heat of it all
What if I stumble, what if I fall?

Father please forgive me for I can not compose
The fear that lives within me
Or the rate at which it grows
If struggle has a purpose
On the narrow road you've carved
Why do I dread my trespasses will leave a deadly scar

Do they see the fear in my eyes?
Are they so revealing?
This time I cannot disguise
All the doubt I'm feeling

What if I stumble?
Everyone's got to crawl when you know that
You're up against a wall, it's about to fall
Everyone's got to crawl when you know that (2x)

I hear You whispering my name [You say]
"My love for You will never change" [never change]

What if I stumble, what if I fall?
You never turn in the heat of it all
What if I stumble, what if I fall?
You are my comfort, and my God

Is this one for the people, is this one for the Lord?

You might ask, why has your last two post been about songs?
Well the answer is simple, 1: I love music and 2: I love lyrics.
Especially when there's poetry, for example: I am full of Earth,you are Heavens worth, I am stained with dirt, prone to depravity,but a certain side of Grace is this,from the broken Earth flowers come up, pushin through the dirt.But those aren't the lyrics I want to talk about.

I have heard this verse quoted a few time and loved it the first time I heard it.
Forgive me, but I'm not sure where in the Bible it's located. It says though the righteous fall seven time God will lift them up. I will have to look it up and tell you all where to find it. Now this brings me to my point. The Bible says He ( as in God ) has given us the Spirit of adoption, wherewith we can cry Abba Father. which is another favorite of mine. And so, daily when we fall and get dirty, we can call and say daddy help me.

When I posted this, I told you that I had Only heard and not reed a verse. And so,these two should help. 1: Ps. 145:14 the LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down. 2: prov. 24:16 For a Just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again.

Counting on God

There are a lot of Scriptures that come to mind when I listen to this song, but the truth is there is one simple message - Count on God.
It should be that simple.
After all He knows the end from the beginning. He already knows how much money we need, what kind of clothes we need, and how we should handle the obstacles that will be in our way tomorrow.
I said all of that to say this prayer:
Daddy God, I pray tathat you help me to count on you. I don't want to take thought for tomorrow. I know that you have a thousand cattle on a thousand hills.
I praise you and I thank you that your Word says if an evil father gives good gifts then how much more does our heavenly Father give good gifts.
Father, I thank you you sending your Holy Spirit to transform me from glory to glory as I surrender it all to you.

Short and sweet

One thing God has been teaching me from last quarter of 2008 till now, is and this has become one of my favorite scriptures. Iron sharpens Iron; so a man sharpens the countenance of his friends.

So what that means to me is this, not to being their Holy Spirit. But, to edifythem and give them godly advice if or when needed. Now this being my first blog and my first post, I'll keep this short and sweet.
I will leave you with one last scripture. This is what I think one of my pastors favorite scriptures, "Confess your faults one to another so that you may be healed..."
