Mighty to Save!

Everyone needs compassion,
Love that's never failing;
Let mercy fall on me.

This morning we worshiped with our brothers and sisters at our home church CovCom which was awesome. Since we are raising support, we do not attend our home church every week.

Everyone needs forgiveness,
The kindness of a Savior;
The Hope of nations.

Both Ashley and I love CovCom. We enjoy the Sunday morning worship service and the various ministries we have had the opportunity to be a part of. Mostly we love the people and the relationships we have built here.

Savior, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,
He is Mighty to save.

This morning I realized I will miss our church and its people a lot when we head overseas. I am glad that is the case. We know the Lord wants us to go to Honduras and serve His people there.

Forever, Author of salvation,
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave.

I realized my biggest 'sacrifice' will be leaving the people I care about. I may miss some of the things I have here in the US, but giving those up will be nothing compared to leaving friends and family.

So take me as You find me,
All my fears and failures,
Fill my life again.

I pray these words. Lord, take this messed up person and make me whole.

I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in,
Now I surrender.

Laying at the foot of the cross is an awesome place to be. I pray I follow Christ there daily.

Shine your light and let the whole world see,
We're singing for the glory of the risen King...Jesus

For those who don't know, the italicized words are lyrics from the song "Mighty to Save" by Hillsong. We sang this as our closing song this morning. I love this song. I pray the Lord will use these words to draw you closer to Him. Praise the Lord we have a God who is Mighty to Save! -M
