 Psalm 147:4-6 

The Message (MSG)

^2-6 God’s the one who rebuilds Jerusalem,
    who regathers Israel’s scattered exiles.
He heals the heartbroken
    and bandages their wounds.
He counts the stars
    and assigns each a name.
Our Lord is great, with limitless strength;
    we’ll never comprehend what he knows and does.
God puts the fallen on their feet again
    and pushes the wicked into the ditch.

A Time to End

I have wondered when I would be done here but I believe my journey with Working On Progress is complete. This is not to say that progress has been achived but that rather I think God is leading me to a different medium. I am playing around with some names and ideas and I will keep you posted on the progress.

I hope your time here has been as good as mine.

God bless us
God lead us
God help us draw closer to you
God help us to remeber the power of prayer and giving.

God help us focus on you

Where has God been leading me?

I feel God is leading me to a point where I am not hungry for my own pursuits. Whether for knowledge, building something, goals .... I have spent lots in search of useless goals. God understands my limitations. How many times he has to remind me that the world is not controlled by the smart or clever.

God help us trust you
God help us follow you
God help us to know you
God help us to know the facts
We need you
Thank you for what you have offered us

God help us to find you
Help us to really listen to you, leaving our baggage at the door

God we need your insperation like the sun
God we need your voice like the rain
God we need your heart in us like our own physical heart

Help us break the down the walls that hide you
Help us to bring your truth into light
Teach us the things we do not know

Change our minds to you
Help us see how we fit
Help us
Speak to us

Faith/Trust In?

This week at church we had a bible study of sorts and a coupling things of interest came out.

In some bibles the word for faith has been translated as trust. Who/What do you put your trust in? I think this works really well.

The other thing that came out of it is that how foolishly I can put by trust/faith in myself. Sometimes when I fear or am worried about something at work or home or life I say "well I solved yesterday's problems so I can solve today's" ie. putting trust in my abillities. This is rather foolish of me because the previous day I had put my trust/faith in God. "God I can't do this day with out you, I ask for your help, for your guidance, Help me to listen to you, help me to trust you"

Another thing that came out of the bible study for me is the answer to this series on faith.

We shouldn't put your trust

our self,
others,
our ability to comprehend or understand,
other peoples ability to comprehend or understand
Scientific communities

I believe you should only put your trust/faith in Jesus/God.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, 
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6

Others

I know we should not base our faith in God on others. It's tough to do though, and I wonder how many times I base my faith in God on others.


The truth is that we all fail and we can't let our faith fail with other people. I believe it should be based on something more concrete.


God help us to trust in you
God help us to listen to you
God help us to hear you
God lead us
God bless us

ARK

This week in church we discussed something interesting that I would like to pass on. I think it originally came from PRAYERS TO STRENGTHEN YOUR INNER MAN by Mike Bickle The acronym ARK


A- Agreement
R- Revelation
K- Keep the Prophecy


It is a tool that we can use to read through God's promises through scripture.
First read through the promise and tell God you agree with it (A). Next ask God for a revelation of the promise to you (R). Lastly ask good to help us keep our side of the promise (K).


I think this is important and will try to do it more.


God help us to come in agreement with your promises
God revel to us your promises
God help us keep you word
