Surrendering

The heat of His Son
Fires my soul
With love for He, the only Holy One

As flames rage
Melting the cage
That held me captive through the age

Yes, the Son
Whose blood ran
For sins of every woman and man

Is our only living hope
For He knows we are still prone
To walk away from His Fathers throne

Yet … He died anyway
So you and I would always have a way
To be reconciled
To be right
To be free
By forever grace in His sight

Don’t wait
The time is now
To step right into the fire power

Approaching with boldness
Burning away the world’s coldness

Yes, Lord, please cleanse and renew
Because in our own power

We cannot
Leave the rot …

It is You

Always faithful and true

To those who surrender all

Up to Your Heaven

Past the visible skies of blue

But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions -it is by grace you have been saved.

And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might show the incomparable riches of His grace, expressed in His kindness in Christ Jesus.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works so that no one can boast (Ephesians 2:4-9).

Welcome, all!

Recently, it was revealed to me how surrender is never done, perhaps until death or until Christ returns.

No matter what we have given over to unload or to offer Him, there is always more to surrender. (All photos are mine today)

Today is Warrior Wednesday!

I will go live at 9am Eastern time to read this poem and discuss the importance of surrender for warriors in faith. You can find that here https://Facebook.com/jdibble4Him

En-JOY the day He made.

In Christ,
