.encouraging words.

I've recently noticed something around me - there are a lot of people who could use some encouraging words. Today I saw several people that I know who looked down. This evening something was bothering my boss. there are so many things that challenge us in our life, what could possibly keep us happy. Christ can truly save us, but If they know christ, what can I do?

i've decided that I want to write more encouraging notes. I want to be more optimistic and not complain about things that are going on in my life. I want to be strength for those around me. I take on this challenge. I want to make my own cards and stuff. Like one with the picture above for example.

The other night this song really stuck out to me. I've listened to it a billion times, but this time it meant something different.

I've been running, trying to be one who sees
I've been working, this salvation out on my knees
There is nothing better than knowing
We are redeemed
I'm believing, trusting in creative hands,
I am praying for our world to bow to your plan
And this one thought is unmistakable
To take up my cross and follow You Lord

When You stand, the tall tress and mountains bow
When You speak, the fiercest of oceans is still
And I see the sinner seek devotion
The lost become chosen, and I fall to my knees

I'm forgiven by a Savior who did not deserve death
He was blameless and I was lost in shamefulness
Undelivered, but it doesn't seem right
Unless I keep my eyes focues on the Savior who gave His life
In the middle of a world that denies it believes
It is breaking apart at the very seams
There is one thing to be alive for
And it's to take up my cross and follow You Lord

When You stand, the tall trees and mountains bow
When You speak, the fiercest of oceans is still
And I see the sinner seek devotion
The lost become chosen, and I fall to my knees

I will take up my cross and follow Lord where You lead me
And I will take up my cross and follow wherever you go

When You stand, the tall trees and mountains bow
When You speak, the fiercest of oceans are still
And I see the sinner seek devotion
The lost become chosen, and I fall to my knees

Fall to my knees.

this is a reminder to me of Christs sacrifice and falling on my knees before our almighty God. The imagry of even nature bowing before God is incredible to me. I love my God. He's awesome. You should get to know Him.
