A Song I Wrote - I Want to Worship You

When I was on Maternity leave, it was the best year of my life. ha ha ha...Not only because I was home all day with my daughter, but also because I felt like I accomplished a lot of things that were on my personal to do list that year. It's nice to accomplish your goals! Well, one of the goals I had that year was to write and compose of few songs. And the Lord gave me a few songs during that year, that my brother, a pianist,  help me put the music together to. I wanted to share one of those songs with you today. This song means a lot to me, because of the words, but also because it was one of the last songs, me and my brothers sang together at one of our jam sessions at my moms house. We used to have many of those, I took many of those jam sessions for granted. I really miss those times. My pianist brother moved, FOREVER, to the West coast to pursue his dreams and also got married. It was hard to see him go, our world was messed up for a bit, since we had always been a really close family, but He was happy and that made us happy. I still miss him a lot, our music ministries started pretty much at the same time, so we had that special connection, but I'm happy to know he is continuing to serve the Lord in music and other ministries where he is right now.

So I remember writing this song, meditating of the presence of God and How I could not live without it. The song is in Spanish, but I will translate the words for the English readers.

Today I want to worship you Lord, For what you've done in me,

For your mercy and for your love 

For what you do in my heart

No one else Makes me feel like you do, 

That's why I want to pour my soul before you

And tell you that I love you,

That there is no one that resembles you

And tell you that I adore you my Lord

That there is no one like you Jesus

It's a simple song, but it's from my heart to Him. Glory be to Him!

Special shout out and thanks to the musicians from my church who helped compose this version of the song! You guys are blessed with talent. Happy to know you are using it for His Glory!!!

An Inspiration in my Life: My Daughter

Children are truly such a blessing from God. As I see my daughter grow, I learn so much about God from her. She's an inspiration for me to be better as person, as a mother, but especially as a servant of the Most High God. I have so many dreams for her, so many hopes for her life. And I ask myself what I can I do to ensure she stays on this path? What can I do to ensure, those dreams will become a reality in this life. The things I can do is cover her with prayer and be an example to her, to live the life that I want her to one day have, that she can be inspired by my own example to her. If I am not an example in all aspects of my life to her, how will she be inspired to do more and be more for God? So I'm trying, we're trying, my hubs and I to be that Godly example for her. Even the way we talk, the way we view things, the things we say in front of her, all that I examine and think, will this be a good example for her? I'm not saying we are perfect, we are growing and learning as the months and years go by, but I do want to try my best to be the greatest example for her and during that time, I'm also getting closer to the Lord.

One of the most wonderful things that fills my heart is to see Breanna worship, even if she's playing around, but she does it. And she's learned that from me and daddy, and yes I'm proud to say that! I love it when i'm singing at church and I see her jumping and singing along to the all songs! And sometimes at home when she sings to me, she does these facial expressions and moves her head like I do when I'm singing. It's so precious and makes me teary! I don't know if she will become a singer like her mother, but I do know that one of the things I want to teach her is to praise the Lord with her whole heart, to worship Him with all she is and with LIBERTY. Within her playing around she's worshiping the Lord. Seeing her do all these things, makes me realize, she is watching my every move, kids are so smart, she can pick up on my reactions and act the same way. I have to ensure that I am acting in a way that I would want her to be.

Breanna is my inspiration to be a better person in all aspects. She's my blessing from the Lord. I've always wanted to be better for God in thanks for all He's done for me but with Breanna, that feeling just quadrupled. I'm so grateful to the Lord for her. And I'm looking forward to the great things He will do in her life. In Jesus Name. Amen.

Bre is in the blue dress here, jumping during the Praise songs with her little friends at church. Do you see her little finger? :)

Weekly Favs: Just To Know You

I found this song in the wee hours of the morning when I should have been sleeping, but sometimes, that's the only "me time" I get! lol....I love finding songs that stir my soul and inspire me to Worship and Praise the Lord, with everything. I shall sing this song one day.  "He takes me Higher!" I want more of him everyday, I want to know Him more Everyday. It is the deepest desire of my heart. I don't want to waste any day and any time that I'm given of life to Praise His Name. I love My Saviour JesusChrist.


 

A Dream: That None Should Perish

A few weeks ago I had a dream that I wanted to write about, but it's been a busy time, I hadn't had much time to write. Booohooo....so I'm taking advantage of these few minutes on this quiet Monday March Break week Morning. Tee hee.

I was dreaming one night that I was somewhere very high, maybe I was on a cloud, but all I remember is my view. I could see the city, the buildings, the cars, like you can see them when you are on a really high roller coaster. Than I could see my daughter, from so high up I could tell it was her. My daughter is 3 years old. I could see her walking on the streets on her own, not knowing where she was going, not knowing what she was doing. I could see the danger her life was in and I would shout and scream her name so that she would avoid, the ongoing traffic around her. I was scared for her life, in fear of a car hitting her. As much as I screamed, she could not hear me. I then attempted to scream and call out the people that were around her, so that they could help her and guide her home, but no one seemed to notice that she was around, no one seemed to see or even care the danger that this child was confronting. I remember feeling helpless and in despair in the dream because I could not do anything to save my child, I was stuck at this height and could not go down.

When I awaken from the dream, the first thought that came to my mind, was "That is exactly How God Feels, That is Exactly How God Loves". I understood it was a God given dream, not just a nightmare. In scripture God compares HIS love for humanity like how a Parent loves his child, of course He being God, His love is much greater than what we could ever comprehend, but if you are a parent, you can relate on how strong that kind of Love could be.

This world, as my daughter in the dream, is so lost in their paths, they are following a path that leads to death and destruction. As much as God calls people in many different ways, people harden their hearts and choose to ignore his call. Or they may hear him but because they have never known God they are not sure how to respond to Him. Than God tries to reach these souls through us, the witnesses of his Love, the born-again people, the people who have experienced his presence, the people who know the truth and He calls out to us, so that we can guide these people who are so lost, in danger and in trouble, but at times we are so caught up with our lives and our troubles that we don't hear the voice of God calling us to speak of His name, to the needy people of this world. We are Christians and are proud of knowing the truth, but that's it. We keep this great truth, this great hope, this great doctrine, to ourselves either because we don't want to go through trouble, because we are scared of what they will say, or simply because "because", no real excuse. Sometimes we are so focus on our troubles, on our circumstances we lose focus of the bigger picture, WE HAVE GOD to help us in our time of need, the WORLD does not and because they don't have any hope, many choose that path of suicide as a way to end it all. Sometimes we are even so busy arguing, fighting and competing against each other, "the chosen" that we even fail to see those around us that need GOD so much.

If I could in this moment, inspire you to feel a burden for those souls of this earth, that are empty, that are in fear, that don't feel love, that feel anxiety, that don't have direction, that need to be shown the way to Escape death and hell.  That we may feel that same anguish that God feels for humanity.That we may make the sacrifice that He made on that cross, everyday more worth it as more souls are pulled out of hell and headed to heaven. That we may take a moment to refocus, to put things into true perspective to LOVE as GOD has loved us. Think about how your life could have been like, if someone, hadn't dedicated time to you and ensured you were on the right path to salvation. Think about how your life could have been if someone didn't see the potential in you, if someone didn't see, with faith who you could become in the kingdom of heaven. Every soul is worth it to God, no matter how ugly, no matter how sinful, God can forgive and those people can become a great blessing and inspiration to the church as they share the GREAT things the Lord did in their lives.

May we remember His dream, that None should Perish. May we rejoice when a sinner comes to Christ, wherever it may be, in our church, their church, any church around this globe! They are souls for JESUS AND ARE BEING SAVED FROM HELL. Rejoice with the LORD.

"Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”

Luke 15:10

"The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance."

2 Peter 3:9

Inspirations: I'm not going to wait, until I can't

As my eyes were shutting last night these thoughts came to mind:

I’m not going to wait until I can’t move my legs to desire to jump in worship in God’s presence

I’m not going to wait until I lose my voice, to desire to sing, speak, and shout about Him with everything I am

I’m not going to wait until my arms have lost their strength to desire to wave my hands in his presence

I'm not going to wait until I can no longer move, to desire to do everything I can do, today and now to Praise Him

So although, I may look/seem crazy, silly, funny worshiping the Lord, speaking out about Him, I’m going to use the strength I got now, to Bring GLORY & PRAISE to HIS NAME! And to tell the world about my King and Savior JESUS!

I don't want to waste the years I'm granted of my life, in things that are vain, that will only pass away, that will not invest in my relationship with God, and that will not invest in my future life with my Lord. As long as I'm alive, It is my true desire for every single little bit of my being, to bring praises to His name. I love HIM. 

One Day I will Sing in Heaven!

During my years of singing there have been some wonderful moments that I've had with the Lord. I shall share one of them with you today.

This past weekend we had very blessed services. I can still taste the presence of the Lord. It was amazing. While we were singing the Song "Agnus Dei" (Hallelujah for the Lord God Almighty Reigns) as I worshiped I could hear like as if it were hundreds of people singing the song along with us 4 singers. It was truly incredible and a joyous feeling because our church is not a huge church - just yet! : ) and it seriously sounded like it as if it were angels that were singing along with us, it's quite amazing. The bible does say that Angels are present to minister to the heirs of salvation (Hebrews 1:14)! During my years of singing I've had this experience a few times and I've even open my eyes, to see if the Lord will allow me to have a glimpse of these angels singing along with us, but I can't say I have seen any. It may sound crazy but when we talk about faith, faith is crazy, acts crazy, but accomplishes the impossible. This experience always fills my heart of joy and takes my mind to that one day that Revelations talks about, while thousands of thousands will be singing to the King of Kings and to the Lord of Lords. Experiences like these, make me want to sing my heart out even more, be a better worshiper and wrap myself in the presence of the Lord forever!! The Lord becomes so much more real to me, and I am humbled that he would allow me a glimpse of heaven. It inspires me and encourages me to keep fighting this battle of faith, because one day, I will be doing what I love best forever! Singing to my Lord and Savior face to face. The thought of that brings such great joy to my heart and tears of joy to my eyes, to think of that day. Oh how I desire to see HIM. I am so blessed to know Him and to have the opportunity to see Him one day. For now, I will keep rejoicing in His presence and singing to Him and only Him.
