Have you ever been sifted like sand?

The devil laughing at your fear, he dwells and he digs, laughing oh so grand.

Then Jesus tells you to TAKE A STAND, actually to take HIS HAND.

It’s a situation (forgiveness or fortitude) that only Jesus and you can understand.

.

And THAT’S when you GET UP.

Because Jesus refills your REFILLABLE cup.

And Jesus would have you stand up,

Because none of us live without His backup.

It ain’t no fluke, ain’t even luck.

It’s Jesus who comes alongside when we feel stuck, even like hit by a mack truck.

Jesus gives FAITH, LOVE and LIFE, He gives enough, even when the going gets tough.

Jesus calls on us to FACE FEAR and yes, LOOK UP. Jesus IS enough.

.

And at that moment then the sand will shift,

Waves will wash it smooth, the past will sink and drift

After high tide comes low tide, 

And after the scare, soon falls our sifted false pride. 

.

Jesus knows our sink.

Jesus appreciates when it makes us think.

REACH TO JESUS TO FIND PLACE.

REACH AND FEEL GOD’S GRACE EMBRACE.

.

Then, Jesus restores our knowledge of place,

To keep living under His unchanging GRACE. 

So if it is fear or pain or whatever that you do face,

Put it aside, pause and feel God’s embrace.

.

Know God’s Grace Embrace

Amen

Micah 4:1-5 NKJV

The Lord’s Reign in Zion
Now it shall come to pass in the latter days
That the mountain of the Lord’s house
Shall be established on the top of the mountains,
And shall be exalted above the hills;
And peoples shall flow to it.
Many nations shall come and say,
“Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
To the house of the God of Jacob;
He will teach us His ways,
And we shall walk in His paths.”
For out of Zion the law shall go forth,
And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
He shall judge between many peoples,
And rebuke strong nations afar off;
They shall beat their swords into plowshares,
And their spears into pruning hooks;
Nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
Neither shall they learn war anymore.

But everyone shall sit under his vine and under his fig tree,
And no one shall make them afraid;
For the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken.
For all people walk each in the name of his god,
But we will walk in the name of the Lord our God
Forever and ever.
