• Song: He Knows My Name by Francesca Battistelli

    Once you are a child of the King he will forever know your name.  God can use you.  You don’t need to be famous in order to make an impact on the world around you.

    Spent today in a conversation
    In the mirror face to face with
    somebody less than perfect
    I wouldn’t choose me first if
    I was looking for a champion
    In fact I’d understand if
    You picked everyone before me
    But that’s just not my story
    True to who You are
    You saw my heart
    and made
    Something out of nothing

    I don’t need my name in lights
    I’m famous in my Father’s eyes
    Make no mistake
    He knows my name
    I’m not living for applause
    I’m already so adored
    It’s all His stage
    He knows my name oh, oh,

    He calls me chosen, free forgiven, wanted, child of the King,
    His forever, held in treasure…
    I am loved

    I don’t need my name in lights…
    I’m famous in my Father’s eyes…

  • Song: I Am Not Alone by Kari Jobe

    There is someone who will walk through the deep waters with you.  We are never alone.  There is no reason to fear or feel overwhelmed.  There have been times in my life that I have had to go through hard times and I have some close family and friends that are going through a difficult season in life.  We have hope because we are not alone.  God is with us always.

    When I walk through deep waters
    I know that you will be with me
    When I’m standing in the fire
    I will not be overcome

    I am not alone
    You will go before me
    You will never leave me

    In the midst of deep sorrow
    I see your light is breaking through
    The dark night will not over take me
    I am pressing into you
    Lord you fight my every battle
    And I will not fear

    You’re my strength
    You’re my defender
    You’re my refuge in the storm

    Through these trials
    You have always been faithful
    You bring healing to my soul

  • Song: Shoulders by For King & Country

    Where does our help come from?  Does it come from our Savior or do we turn to everything else first?  He is ready to help us.  Our help should from the one who can carry the weight on his shoulders.  The one who has our lives in His hands.

     When confusion’s my companion
    And despair holds me for ransom
    I will feel no fear
    I know that You are near
    When I’m caught deep in the valley
    With chaos for my company
    I’ll find my comfort here
    ‘Cause I know that You are near

    My help comes from You
    You’re right here, pulling me through
    You carry my weakness, my sickness, my brokenness all on Your shoulders 
    Your shoulders
    My help comes from You
    You are my rest, my rescue
    I don’t have to see to believe that You’re lifting me up on Your shoulders 
    Your shoulders

    You mend what once was shattered
    And You turn my tears to laughter
    Your forgiveness is my fortress
    Oh Your mercy is relentless 

  • Song: Flawless by Mercy Me

    The cross is enough.  Yes, we have the ability to chose right from wrong, but God’s goodness and grace covered our sin on the cross.  The cross has made us flawless through his sacrifice because we cannot do it on our own.

    There’s got to be more
    Than going back and forth
    From doing right to doing wrong
    ‘Cause we were taught that’s who we are
    Come on get in line right behind me
    You along with everybody
    Thinking there’s worth in what you do

    Then like a hero who takes the stage when
    We’re on the edge of our seats saying it’s too late
    Well let me introduce you to amazing grace

    No matter the bumps
    No matter the bruises
    No matter the scars
    Still the truth is
    The cross has made
    The cross has made you flawless
    No matter the hurt
    Or how deep the wound is
    No matter the pain
    Still the truth is
    The cross has made
    The cross has made you flawless

    Could it possibly be
    That we simply can’t believe
    That this unconditional
    Kind of love would be enough
    To take a filthy wretch like this
    And wrap him up in righteousness
    But that’s exactly what He did

    Take a breath smile and say
    Right here right now I’m ok because
    The cross was enough

    Then like a hero who takes the stage when
    We’re on the edge of our seats saying it’s too late 
    Well let me introduce you to grace grace
    God’s grace

    No matter what they say
    Or what you think you are
    The day you called His name
    He made you flawless
