AN OPEN INVITATION TO PEACE

Merry Christmas Everyone.

Lord, I feel Your presence
In these days the Birth is shared
I lift to you, my gratitude for your son, Jesus

CHARIOT RACING TOWARDS MY HEART

What did it feel like when you first spoke to God and actually KNEW in your heart He was listening?

Stubborn heart of mine
But you were wise
And you pursued me with intentions
Never letting go

I was just a child
Woman of 30
Your hand upon my heart
Forgiving me

Sweet shelter
In You
Sweet shelter
Sweet Lord

Stubborn heart entwined
In so many things that hurt
Yet you pursed me, so relentless
Never letting go

I was just a child
Woman of 30
Your hand upon my life
Restoring me

TRUTH LASTS

Lies are here today, gone tomorrow. Proverbs 12:19

You can't chant your way into heaven
You can't buy or book your time
God is here now
Call him on his dime

You can't burn a stick
of fragrance sweet
to fill your heart with love
to find your way to peace

SOLACE

diving into you
beneath the earth tonight
deeper deeper deeper still
my love, my lord, my life

ONE YEAR OF UNFAILING LOVE

Friends, it has been one year since I began my blog.

What a year it has been. I want to thank the following peeps:

Tabitha - for encouraging me to start this blog
BJK & Kevin - for being my first readers
Whitey - for redesigning my blog look a few months back
The rest of you - God bless you for coming back here again and again

Your comments have provided me with great encouragement. I have enjoyed the great depth to which each of you has shared your life with me here in cyber-land!

Blessings,
Danielle

JUMP

We're entering a season of greatness.

Know you are loved. Know you are forgiven. Understand, to the depths that you are most able, that God's grace is sufficient.

...to the depths that you are most able...

...because we can SAY we understand.

...but can we ACT like it? Can we live the anointed life God has gifted us?

In 2007, are you ready to Jump?

For the last few months, I've been asking myself the same question.

There's trouble ahead when you live only for the approval of others, saying what flatters them, doing what indulges them. Popularity contests are not truth contests--look at how many scoundrel preachers where approved by your ancestors! Your task is to be true, not popular."--Luke 6:26

Your task is to be true, not popular.

MY task is to be true, not popular.

There have been a few obstacles lately...distractions...things that SUCK (can I just say this?). But I'm not backing down.

God's love is never-ending, far-reaching, all-encompassing.

This is love.
