Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

no prayer goes unheard.
Luke 11:9-10: "So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened."
If God tells us that if we seek Him, we will find what we're looking for,
then why else is holding us back?
In Psalm 119:9-11, "How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word. I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands. I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you."
May my heart belong to you only,
and that your words I will hid in the depths of my heart.
May I never stray from your side,
and you carry me through all the days of my life.
Today was a day I felt really low.
I argued with my friend, and I really felt like it was me against the world.
I felt so alone, so misunderstood, so wronged.
I kept my cool, but my heart was torn inside.
My tears flowed when I was in the shower.
I told God I felt like I was standing by myself, fighting but failing,
and asked Him if He was there with me.
I know He was.
I feel so lousy.
What I went through can never possibly compare with what Jesus went through.
and He had no one but God and those who believed,
but the majority, and those in power on Earth, were against Him.
He had the power to prove them wrong, but He didn't,
because He knew there was a greater and higher purpose to fulfill.
Maybe, it's the same for me too.
There will be trials in life that I have to go through, hard times bad times,
but eventually I'm looking towards something greater,
and when that day comes, everything else will fade away, even my pain.
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit -- Psalm 34:18
