Paddi, I pray to remain in Your presence—that it would fall upon me and anyone else praying this as well this day and always so much so that I/we get lost in Your love because all I/we want is more of You.

As I am embarking on a new chapter with the LORD, here is one of the scripture/song I find myself repeating verbally and nonverbally. I pray it blesses you as well!
BE STILL (Psalm 46:10) by J. Hanz Ives
(CHORUS)
Be still and know that I am God
I will be exalted among the people
Be still and know that I am God
I will be exalted among the people
I will be exalted
I will be exalted
I will be exalted in all the earth
(REPEAT CHORUS)
(BRIDGE)
Let your praises be heard
Let your hearts be glad
I am the eternal Word
Forever on the throne
(CHORUS/TAG)
Be still and know that I am God
I will be exalted among the people
Be still and know that I am God
I will be exalted among the people
I will be exalted among the people
I will be exalted in all the earth
True Love—covers all wounds. Loving is not a cloth to put on and take off upon circumstance or background—Love never fails.
As I listen and join Sherri to God’s throne of grace, I rediscover God’s amazing grace afresh! His love divine sweeps me off my feet and into His everlasting arms…I thank God for this beloved sister and pray His will continue to be done in and through her!! For more information, please visit: http://www.sherriyoungward.com/sherri.aspx. I know that no matter the hour, whether in sickness or health, rich or poor,…He continues to still my soul like to no other and I choose to walk by faith not by sight, so help me God.
In Christ alone~
THESE THINGS DON’T CHANGE
Words and music Sherri Youngward
Be still my soul
I can see the horizon
A cold cold wind is about to blow
Be still my soul
I will not falter
Faith believes when it cannot see
This I know
Nothing will ever take this love away
The grass will wither and the flower fade
These things don’t change
Bless the Lord oh my soul
I’m stepping off of this familiar shore
I’ll put to test the things I know
This I know
By surprise He’ll catch me by surprise
He will burst right through the skies
And we will fly away
Height, depth, width, breadth, poverty,
Prosperity, kingdoms, power,
Persecution, life, death, tribulation,
Love, hate, chance, fate, angels, demons, sinner, saint, nothing on earth no
created thing

I kiss goodbye to my agendas and dreams.
Lord, whatever You want to do with me,
PLEASE do!
I cannot live without You.
I am sorry for wanting to take control.
I cannot take another step without You, Papi.
I am weak and helpless.
Please come to my rescue.
I know all I am and have ARE Yours.
I offer myself to You as a burnt offering.
Do with me as You will, Savior,
Do with me as You will
For this life I live
Was never mine but Yours.
I thank You for meeting me
And I solemnly pray,
GLORIFY THY NAME AS
I SURRENDER ALL!!
“…Salvation is not based upon my knowledge, my deep study, or my 24 hour prayer chain. It’s based upon one thing only: the grace and goodness of God in sending One Man, the Last Adam: Jesus Christ.” –Pastor Jon Courson, 22May2009 Daily Devotional, Romans 5:20-21
Vicky Beeching – Above All Else
Jesus, my passion in life is to know You
May all other goals bow down to This journey of loving You more
Jesus, You’ve showered Your goodness on me
Given Your gifts so freely
But there’s one thing I’m longing for
Hear my heart’s cry
And my prayer for this life
Above all else
Above all else
Above all else
Give me Yourself
Savior, the more that I see Your beauty
The more that I glimpse Your glory
My heart is captured by You
Jesus, You are my greatest treasure
Nothing this world can offer
Could ever compare to You
So, hear my heart’s cry
And my prayer for this life

I was blessed to worship God with this wonderful daughter of His at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa’s Pure Worship Conference! I too pray, “…above all else, Jesus, give me Yourself…”
Not sure who the author is but I thank God for it and would love to share it with you too! 
It’s in the Valley We Grow
Sometimes life seems hard to bear
Full of sorrow, trouble and woe
It’s then we have to remember
That it’s in the valleys we grow.
If we always stayed on the mountain top
And never experienced pain,
We would never appreciate God’s love
And would be living in vain.
We have so much to learn
And our growth is very slow,
Sometimes we need the mountain tops,
But it’s in the valleys we grow.
We do not always understand
Why things happen as they do,
But I am very sure of one thing.
My Lord will see me through.
The little valleys are nothing
When we picture Christ on the cross
He went through the valley of death;
His victory was Satan’s loss.
Forgive me Lord, for complaining
When I’m feeling so very low.
Just give me a gentle reminder
That it’s in the valleys I grow.
Continue to strengthen me, Lord
And use my life each day
To share your love with others
And help them find their way.
Thank you for the valleys, Lord
For this one thing I know
The mountain tops are glorious
But it’s in the valleys I grow!
Psalm 23
[1] The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
[2] He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.
[3] He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.
[4] Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort.
Dear God,
I too sing along with Bryan Duncan in praying to love you with my life—the life You have given me.
O, Lord
Hear these prayers I pray,
Dear God
Jesus, here I pray
On my knees before You
I live for You today
Because I do adore You
I will not be afraid
Only watch and pray
To see Your glad return
I’ll put my trust in You
‘Til my life is completed
Do all as unto You
Believing all You’ve stated
I want to live in peace
In spite of tribulation
Until You come again
Please know that I love You
I’ll stay by Your side
Worship You in spirit
Oh, Lord, be my guide
Don’t let me suffer long
‘Cause You have suffered for me
I love You with my life
Please know that I love You
I’ll stay by Your side
Worship You in spirit
Oh, Lord, be my guide
I will not suffer long
For You have suffered for me
I love You with my life
I love You with my life
I love You with my life
I love You with my life
Don’t You know that I love You
Love You with my life
&
I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.
Refrain
I need Thee, O I need Thee;
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Savior,
I come to Thee.
I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby;
Temptations lose their power when Thou art nigh.
Refrain
I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide, or life is in vain.
Refrain
I need Thee every hour; teach me Thy will;
And Thy rich promises in me fulfill.
Refrain
I need Thee every hour, most Holy One;
O make me Thine indeed, Thou blessèd Son.
Refrain
GALATIANS 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
Proverbs 18:10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
I cannot share enough about His name and I pray to never cease proclaiming it!!! You see, this is not my first time reading the above verse but just as I read it again today, His Word continues to bring solidifying affirmation that true and true the name of the LORD is a strong tower for me and whenever I run into it, I will find refuge and assured security. I pray the same over you and myself included that whenever perplexed or just mere uncertain, run to the throne first then the phone if absolutely necessary. I pray to converse with my Daddy as well as listen to Him, laying all entanglements and convoluting challenges at His feet…at the foot of the cross while simultaneously trusting Him to continue to take care of it all making the best decisions—decisions I could not humanly do for myself or anyone else for that matter. I pray to continue to let go and let God do WHATSOEVER He pleases because I know and know and know that my Father knows best. Today and always, may we find refuge, strength, security, and satisfaction in Christ alone, our strong tower!!!
