Today's Message
by Barbara Philbrook

Lord  what is today's message what would you like me to impart,
what words do you offer to uplift the broken heart?

What are the thoughts that you desire us to dwell upon,
what would make us a soldier in your army and not Satan's pawn?

What words would give us the Strength to stand strong and tall for you,
no matter what we face no matter what we must do?

What would be the guarantee that what we see and hear are the things that you desire,
what would be the spark that sets our hearts afire?

I surrender all that I am and all that l will ever be,
Heavenly Father I surrender it all to thee.

I can do nothing and be nothing without guidance from you,
therefore I surrender it all so that I  may do as you wish me to.

I am weak and unable to stand on my own,
but through your strength I could part waters as did Moses if Glory to you would be shown.

Lord nothing of importance can be accomplished or be of any worth,
if it doesn't bring awareness of your love to the inhabitants of this earth.

If precious souls aren't made aware of how much you love them how very much you care,
how can we offer them salvation how can we be sure they will be there?

Therefore please accept my surrender you know it originates from deep within my heart,
please use me to serve you please let me too do my part.

The honor of putting words on paper so others may a glimpse of your love see,
is more than I deserve Lord Thank You for hearing my plea!
