HE LIVES!!!


For those of you who have busy lives and sometimes get caught up in ALL the hussle and bussle, don't forget HE LIVES!!!


Does it seem like some days that you never get it ALL done?  Let alone have time to spend with God!!! 


And even though it might seem this way at times, God is still good!!!


As I spoke to the Lord about how frustrated I was that the first version of this posting went out in email as it did, I felt NOT to worry about it.  And so I didn’t after that!!!



You see, we had buried one of our precious family members today.  Although he was 85 and ready to meet the LORD, he will be missed dearly!!!



I had left early this morning to go to the funeral and gotten back a bit later than I had expected.  All in all, it was a good day!!!  The little church was full, but everyone was able to get inside and sit down.  The Lord even blessed us with a nice bit of sunshine for the graveside services. 



When I finally sat down to write, I felt that I had indeed gotten caught up in all the hussle and bussle of life.  So, I decided to post early to save my spot on my blog and come back later to repost.  In doing so, I forgot that this blog posts 2 times a day-one time before 10pm & once after 12am, or so it would seem!!!  Sometimes I wonder!!! 



So, I was horrified to see my little notation had actually gone out to my email subscribers, but God said NOT to worry!!!  And so I didn’t!!!  It is Saturday night and I am finally reposting this!!! 


The one problem with the emails is that I have no idea who ALL is subscribing thru email, so I can’t send out an updated blog to everyone as I would like to do when I radically rewrite a blog post as I am doing now!!!




So, I did as GOD said and I decided NOT to worry about it!!! 



The LORD has given me this song to add to this post!!!  So, I say to you, GOD IS GOOD, ALL THE TIME!!!



AND ALL THE TIME, GOD IS GOOD!!! 



This song has always touched my heart!!!  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!!!  Be sure to click the title of this post to play the video!!!


Because He Lives
(Writers: Bill & Gloria Gaither)


God sent His son, they called Him, Jesus
He came to love, heal, and forgive.
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives.


Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, ALL fear is gone.
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives.


How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
And feel the pride and joy he gives.
But greater still the calm assurance,
This child can face uncertain days because He lives.


Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, ALL fear is gone.
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives.


And then one day I'll cross the river,
I'll fight life's final war with pain.
And then as death gives way to victory,
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives.


Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, ALL fear is gone!
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives!



WE SERVE A RISEN SAVIOR!!!


JESUS LIVES!!!!
