"We need God everyday"



"Being a Christian doesn't mean we won't fall. It means Jesus will catch me when we do." ♥

"God is working in your life!"


Isaiah 55:8 "“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord."

We don't always see the hand of God moving in our lives, however by Faith we know that He is there working on our lives, helping, protecting, healing, providing, and making straight the path for us to walk.

His Thoughts are SO much higher than our thoughts and His Ways higher than our ways, so God always know what is best for our lives and our future!

God is working on our lives right now is fantastic ways that we cannot understand!

God bless you, Pastor Roger McCarthy

"You are altogether BEAUTIFUL my love: there is no flaw in you." -Song of Songs 4:7


Ladies, you are altogether beautiful my darling and their is no blemish in you. Songs of Songs 4:7
" This is the bridegroom speaking to the bride. Jesus Christ speaking to us. To you and me.

See how Christ looks at us. Beautiful and perfect. Why? Why does someone as holy as God look at me and say, "You're beautiful?" We are beautiful to Him because His blood covered the multitude of sins.

Jesus longs for us to just be with Him. We need to stop getting distracted with other things. We need to have an intimate relationship with the Lord. I think about Jesus in His ministry on earth. People were looking for Jesus. Where was He? He slipped away to pray. He slipped away to be with His Father.

Come away from all that is keeping you away from the Lord. Lay aside all the cares of life, all your hobbies, all your friends and just be undistracted with the Lord.

Do you have the same passion you had for the Lord when you first became a Christian? Are you too busy for Him now? Are you giving excuses like- I’m too tired or I’m too busy?

"Ladies, God calls us the BEAUTIFUL ONE." -Song of Solomon 2:10

"My Beloved spoke and said to me—Rise up My love, My beautiful one—and come away!" Song of Solomon 2:10

Ladies, He calls us by the sweet title of "My love" and regards us as beautiful! This is a good encouragement for our rising. If He has thus exalted us, and thinks us thus lovely—how can we linger in the dark tents of Kedar and find congenial associates among the world?

He bids us "Come away!" Come away further and further from everything selfish, groveling, worldly, and sinful! He calls us from the outwardly religious world which knows Him not, and has no sympathy with the mystery of the pious life.

You call us to Yourself by saying "Come away!" and this is a melodious call indeed. To come to You is to come home from exile; to come to land out of the raging storm; to come to rest after long labor; to come to the goal of our desires and the summit of our wishes!
But Lord, how can a stone rise, how can a lump of clay come away from the horrible pit? O raise us, draw us—and We will run after You! Your grace alone can do it. Send forth Your Holy Spirit to kindle sacred flames of love in our heart—and we will continue to rise until we leave life and time behind us, and indeed come away! Amen.

God bless,
—C.H. Spurgeon

“Kekasihku mulai berbicara kepadaku: Bangunlah manisku, jelitaku, marilah!” --Kidung Agung 2:10

Wanita cantik,
Dia memanggil kita dengan “Manisku”,  "Cintaku" dan menganggap kita sebagai si cantik! Ini merupakan dorongan yang baik untuk kemajuan kita. Jika Dia telah sedemikian meninggikan kita, dan berpikir bahwa kita sedemikian indah, bagaimana bisa kita berlama-lama di tenda-tenda gelap Kedar dan mencari rekan menyenangkan dari kalangan dunia?

Dia tawarkan kita "Ayo pergi!" Ayo pergi lebih jauh dan lebih dari segala sesuatu yang egois, merendahkan diri, duniawi, dan berdosa! Dia memanggil kita dari dunia lahiriah yang tidak mengenal Dia, dan tidak memiliki simpati dengan misteri kehidupan yang saleh.

Dia memanggil kita mendekat kepada-Nya dengan berkata “Marilah!”  dan ini adalah panggilan yang sungguh merdu. Untuk datang kepada-Nya adalah bagaikan pulang dari pengasingan, dan bagaikan datang ke tanah dan keluar dari amukan badai, datang untuk beristirahat setelah persalinan yang lama, untuk datang ke tujuan akhir dari harapan-harapan kita dan tiba di puncak kerinduan kita!
Tapi “Tuhan, bagaimana bisa sebuah batu terangkat, bagaimana bisa segumpal tanah liat menjauh dari lubang mengerikan? Oh Tuhan, angkatlah kami, Tariklah kami - dan kami akan berlari mengejar-Mu! Rahmat-Mu sendirilah yang dapat melakukannya. Pancarkan Roh Kudus-Mu untuk menyalakan api cinta suci di hati kami, dan kami akan terus bangkit sampai kami meninggalkan kehidupan kami yang lalu, dan sungguh datang kehadirat-Mu!” Amin.
Tuhan memberkati,
—C.H. Spurgeon
