Great and mighty, are your works Oh Lord. It is you who hold all things together. It is you who created the foundations of the earth. It is you who hold the stars in place and keep the oceans from covering the whole earth. Most wonderful, is that you love us, in spite of our imperfect ways, yet Jesus made us whole. You call us adopted sons and daughters. In all these troubled times, we are truly blessed.
You are the strength when I am weak, you are the treasure that I seek, you are my all in all.
There is no discrimination with God. Those who repent (turn) from their path of destruction, and put their dependence in Jesus, through his perfect life, that we could not do, will be saved. Every race, every color, every language, who calls upon the name of Jesus, in faith will be united together. This is good news, and the only truth that will conquer division, through love.
Praise God, we have a friend in Jesus. We sin regularly, and he forgives regularly. There is nothing you can’t go before to confess. He already knows, anyway.
He’s got the whole world, in his hands!
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil. For thou art with me. Father, you are that outstretched hand that helps me that leap of faith, every day, every hour, every minute. I am yours, and you call me by name.
Our hope is in you, Jesus.
The painful truth, yet joyful reality, that God loved us so much, to give Jesus as an offering for our wicked hearts, that whomever would believe in him, would live, just as Jesus would live again, as he rose from the grave, and conquered death.

This is a veiled prediction of Jesus’ death on the cross. Jesus referred to the story of Nu 21:5–9 where the Israelite people who looked at the serpent lifted up by Moses were healed. The point of this illustration or analogy is in the “lifted up.” Just as Moses lifted up the snake on the pole so that all who looked upon it might live physically, those who look to Christ, who was “lifted up” on the cross, will live spiritually and eternally.
