God Isn’t Finished Yet

/ pastorpete51 / 13 Comments 
When things aren’t going swimmingly
And skies don’t look so blue
Remember that the Lord’s still working
And that He isn’t through

Down in our hearts rock hard with sin
His grace is pouring through
To soften us till soft like clay
His hands can make us new

And put in place of brag and boast
A meek and gentle word
And instead of angry shouts
HIs praises will be heard

No, He’s not done and there’s a pile
Of things He’s changing still
But don't give up - hold on to Him
 He is leading up the hill

To where we'll hear our Savior say
If we will just believe
And let go of all our past
It is finished! - Come with me!

When Jesus had tasted it, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.
John 19:30 NLT

Be Still

Be still and know that I am God
I hear my Savior say
But yet instead
Just like a child
I often run away

I run until my legs give out
And I hold my aching sides
With heaving breaths
And weary arms
I can't another stride

Then comes His gentle voice again
Inviting me to come
To learn His way
To take His yoke
And rest in Him alone

Be still

In the Wounds Doubt Disappeared

 In the garden at the dawn
In darkness doubt and tears
He called Mary first and then
To the others He appeared

But Thomas was not there
And said “I won’t believe
That Jesus is alive
Till I can touch his scars and see”

He kept doubting till the day
At his table Christ appeared
And called him come to touch His wounds
And in those wounds doubt disappeared
