1. Psalms 149:3
Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp
Oh, God is so good! So many blessings he has poured out onto those who love him!
Oh, people, God is so great! All the blessings he's provided, all the love he has given to us. He died--He DIED on a terrible cross for our sin just so that some of us, who would accept His gift to us, an unfaithful servant could make it into eternal life with him in heaven.
He gave up his life to give us life! He was beaten for our healing and he was persecuted so that we could be accepted. Oh, how great is the love of our heavenly Father!
I sit here thinking of how much he really does love us, and how much mercy he has and how much I would probably have if I were God. It's amazing how God works.
Just lately that has been what I've been thinking about. Some of us don't think so much of it, but it's time to think much of it. And me, in just thinking much of it, I am convinced I have been acting off the wall to how I should. So before you, my friends, I'm going to stop this nonsense of coming back and going further from Jesus. I'm going to come back and I'm going to stay back. God is calling me in and I can't say no to his call. His love is pulling me in at full length and I have no choice but to obey the voice calling my name. I have never been so happy to accept his gift.
THANK YOU LORD JESUS!

Psalms 149:3
Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp
Yeah, that's what I've been thinking about these past few days. I wrote that post about how blessed I am because I'm so happy about my band. I really feel like the Lord has blessed us. I know he has, and that he will continue to.
We played this song and I've had it stuck in my head all day:
Blessed Be Your Name
Blessed be your name
In the land that is plentiful
Where the streams of abundance flow
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out,
I turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say...
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
Blessed be your name
When the sun's shining down on me
When the world's all as it should be
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out,
I turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say...
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, Blessed be your name
THinkin' about these lyrics:
Thank YOu
I am a caught in the middle of so much that i can not save the forest for the trees
and i feel depression and im about to blow
its all caving in on me
something i knows a miss in my soul
my eyes are on me this should not be
i praise you from the center of the fire
(so i say)
Chorus
Thank You
Thank You
Thank You
Thank You
I have 2 words for you
Thank you
Thank You
Thank you
From my heart
Thank you
Thank You
Thank you
Thank you
i got 3 words more than Thank you
I Love you!
Verse 2
I've got much to thank you for
you opened up the door
turned my sorrow to joy
In this world that i live in
your wonders never end
you define hope
thinking of all that you have in store
for me i'm in awe i've got to STOP
and thank you for the love i've found in you
(repeat Chorus)
(vamp)
I wanna say thank you for the peace that i found
with your love surrounding me
i wanna say thank you for the mercy you showed me
the way you've broke me
I wanna say thank you for the bride that you've gave me
and all of our babies
(i wanna say)
I wanna say thank you just for being you
Verse 3
'Cause your the mystery that put a fix on me
i'm just some dude with a shaggy little history
deep in the eye of my hurricane
But your the blood pumppin through my veins
(i wanna say)
(REPEAT CHORUS 2)
(ive got much)
thank you for now...
to thank you for now
(i've got much)
to thank you for Now!

Hey.
A good song to look up to listen to when you feel like this is MercyMe-I surrender all.
I love that song.
_______
Nails in your hands
Nail in your feet
Tell me how much you love me
Thorns in your brow
They tell me how
You bore so much shame to love me
And when the heavens pass away
All your scars will still remain
And forever they will say
How much you love me
Forever my love
Forever my heart
Forever my life is yours
It's yours
