the ONLY way

Seeing souls saved is one of the greatest passions I have, or anyone should have for that matter. To see satan lose and Heaven gain, is so stirring to the soul. It’s a desire of mine as well as a passion to see God change lives and people restored. To see God move in lives that were broken and watch as He can mold the pieces of their lives back together, stirs my faith!

Yet, I wonder if people actually know that God can and will do this. The key, is you have to let Him. The key, is to give up your life and live for Him. The key, is to make Him Lord over all of your life. For us to make it to Heaven, to the place where He went to prepare for us to rejoice forever with Him, we must believe that He, Jesus Christ, is the ONLY way!

Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.-John 14:5-6

See, Thomas asked Jesus, how do we know the way, the way to the place to where you are going. Jesus replied, I am the way. It’s when we give our hearts over to Jesus and make Him Lord of our lives that we can get to our expected end. Our life with our Savior. For He laid down His life for His sheep! He is the ONLY way that we can see the Father. The ONLY way for us to make it to Heaven. He is the ONLY way for our sins to be forgiven.

Will you make Him your ONLY way?

There is a song by Jeremy Camp that I love, that goes along with the verse above. I hope you enjoy reading it, and it helps to guide you to the ONLY way!

I’m praying for you,
Amanda

The Way by Jeremy Camp

All creation cried out with longing
With groans only You could comprehend
And with wisdom, You always answer
And give the words of life so unfailing

And Your glory shines all around us
Your faithfulness shown for all to see
When we think of all your wonders
The beauty of Your plan that’s been revealed
When we walk in Your light, we walk in it

Shine, bright
Let Your glory fill this land
Lift high, the King of Kings and great I AM
Jesus, You are the way
You are the way

We can see the works of Your loving hands
With a hope and peace not made by man
When you poured our Your grace and Your mercy
And You held out Your arms so we could see
You bled for all mankind, and set the captives free

Shine, bright
Let Your glory fill this land
Lift high, the King of Kings and great I am
Jesus, You are the way
You are the way

Na na na na na na, Jesus
Na na na na na na, You are the way
Na na na na na na, Jesus
Na na na na na na

Shine, bright
Let Your glory fill this land
Lift high, the King of Kings and great I am
Shine, bright
Let Your glory fill this land
Lift high, the King of Kings and great I am
Jesus, You are the way
You are the way
Jesus,
You are the way
You are the way
You are the way

he is my Constant

Constant by Francesca Battistelli

I’m just a little bit afraid of where I’m going
And it feels like a hurricane is blowing over
Though I can’t find the ground below
I’ve lived enough to know
I’ve lived enough to know

You’re my constant in every moment
Constant
You’ve never failed me
All my life
You have never left my side
You are my constant

Okay I really don’t like change but I can’t stop it
I’m moving forward anyway with the promise
You are my anchor for my soul
That’s all I need to know
That’s all I need to know

You’re my constant in every moment
Constant
You’ve never failed me
All my life
You have never left my side
You are my constant

Before I was a thought on earth
You knew me then and You gave me worth
When all of this is said and done
You will be the One I’m standing on

You’re my constant in every moment
Constant
You’ve never failed me
All my life
You have never left my side
You are MY constant

He is MY CONSTANT!

Heart Song

I was driving down the road a few months ago and I heard this song on the radio. From the moment it played, I fell in love with it. I had forgotten the name of the group that sung it and well all together just forgot it. I was in the Christian Book Store last thursday, and I came across a cd that sounded familiar to me. I got to looking at it and there was the song! I was so excited. After paying, I put it into the cd player and listened to the song all the way to pick up my daughter from school. It has helped to encourage my faith and to know that God is my shelter from the storm and He’s become my heart’s desire!

I will forever sing His praises higher!!

Only Hope by Addison Road

If everything comes down to love
Then just what am I afraid of
When I call out Your name
Something inside awakes in my soul
How quickly I forget I’m Yours

I’m not my own
I’ve been carried by You
All my life

Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free
When my life is like a storm
Rising waters all I want is the shore
You say I’ll be ok and
Make it through the rain
You are my shelter from the storm

Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free

I am not my own
I’ve been carried by you my whole life

Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free

You’ve become my hearts desire
I will sing Your praises higher
Cause Your love sets me free
Your love sets me free
Your love sets me free

Heart Songs

I was listening to the radio on my way to pick up my daughter from school yesterday, and a song that was played just grabbed my attention. It got me thinking back to on a Starry Night so many years ago, the Lord saved me. It also reminded me of the hope that He has always given me, how he has brought me through some of the darkest spots in my life. When I would have given up on me, He didn’t, and for that I could never give enough praise! I want to encourage you to give your life to the only ONE that can give you hope when you don’t have none. For everything that we could ever want is in Him. He is my Starry Night!
I hope you enjoy the Heart Song that has filled my heart!

God Bless,
Amanda

Starry Night by Christ August

From the Birds that Sing, In the Tallest Trees.
To the Human Life, of you and me.
From the Desert Sands, to the place we stand.
He is God of All, He is Everything.

Waohhh

I’m giving my life to the only One who makes the moon reflect the sun.
Every starry night, that was His design.
I’m giving my life to the only Son, who was and is and yet to come
Let the praises ring, ’cause He is everything
‘Cause He is everything

From the autumn leaves, that will ride the breeze
To the Faith it takes, to pray and sing
From the Painted sky, to my plank filled eye
He is God of all, He is everything

Waohhh

I’m giving my life to the only One who makes the moon reflect the sun.
Every starry night, that was His design.
I’m giving my life to the only Son,who was and is and yet to come
Let the praises ring, ’cause He is everything.

Ohhhhhhh (everything)

Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
Hallelujah
I believe
Ohhh
Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
hallelujah believe

I’m giving my life to the only One who makes the moon reflect the sun
On that starry night, He changed my life.
I’m giving it all to the only Son who gave me hope when I had none.
So let the praises ring,
Ohhhh Let the Praises Ring

I’m giving my life to the only One who makes the moon reflect the sun.
Every starry night, that was His design.
I’m giving my life to the only Son, who was and is and yet to come
and the Angels sing, that He is heavenly

So let the Praises ring
‘Cause He everything

A Baby Changes Everything

Teenage girl much to young
Unprepared for what’s to come
A baby changes everything

Not a ring on her hand
All her dreams and all her plans
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything

The man she loves she’s never touched
How will she keep his trust?
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything

And she cries
Ooh she cries
Ooh, oh

She has to leave, go far away
Heaven knows she can’t stay
A baby changes everything

She can feel it’s coming soon
There’s no place, there’s no room
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything

And she cries!
And she cries!
Oh, she cries

Shepherds all gather ’round
Up above the star shines down
A baby changes everything

Choir of angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything
Everything, everything, everything

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

My whole life has turned around
I was lost but now I’m found
A baby changes everything, yeah
A baby changes everything

Heart Song

Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:But whosoever drinketh of water that I shall give him shall never thirst, but the water that I give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.-John 4:13-14
( The story of Jesus and the woman at the well)

Have you ever been thirsty? So thirsty that nothing can quite quench your thirst? Of course! We drink gallons of water, Gatorade, kool-aid, or soft drinks to cool us down when we are dry and need a drink. Have you ever searched for something and not quite found what you were looking for? Maybe it was clothes, paper work, trying to fix a hunger craving that you’re not sure what you want, or is it more?

Have you ever felt like you were falling in a black hole and there’s no way to turn or go? Do you feel like there is no one to talk to or no one to listen? Like there is no way out? There is a way out! There is hope! The way is Jesus and He came to give you a soul drink!

I felt the exact same way about a year ago. I have been blessed with a wonderful christian family and got saved when I was young, but I fell away from God. I decided to take on the world by myself. I still prayed but I was nowhere near being what a christian is. I didn’t give God all of me and I backslid. I fell back into sin and was doing sinful acts. I was searching for something to fill a void in my life and I thought the world could give it to me. I thought that I just hadn’t found what I was looking for so I kept on searching. I was half right. I hadn’t truly found what I was searching for until I heard my dad preach a message on July 04, 2010. It changed my life! God was what I was searching for. He was my spiritual drink. All this time, He had been wanting me to leave all of my past, my mistakes, my sin…to leave it all behind and come to His well. He wanted to be what my soul longed for. He wanted my heart, all of me. He knew how dirty I felt, and how I didn’t even feel like I had the right to pray, but to Jesus it didn’t matter. He cleaned me up, healed and mended my broken heart, and has/is molding me into the christian woman I am today. He has stolen my heart and has quenched my thirst and has given me rest in His arms.

He can do the exact same thing for you. It doesn’t matter what you have done. Just come as you are. He is pleading and patiently waiting on you to come and have a spiritual drink. He is waiting to fill you up and to cleanse you. He has what your searching for, and He will mend your brokeness and give you a joy and warmth that is everlasting. There is no word to describe what He can do for you. Your search will end and your thirst will be quenched. Don’t let Satan tell you that you are worthless and unforgivable. He just wants to drag you down! God is much stronger than that.
This old world will try to fill your void, but it will fail!! Leave all your past behind..Come to His Well!

Be Blessed,
Amanda

The Well by Casting Crowns

Leave it all behind,
Leave it all behind,
Leave it all behind,
Leave it all behind,

I have what you need,
But you keep on searchin,
I’ve done all the work,
But you keep on workin,
When you’re runnin on empty,
And you can’t find the remedy,
Just come to the well.

You can spend your whole life,
Chasin what’s missing,
But that empty inside,
It just ain’t gonna listen.
When nothing can satisfy,
And the world leaves you high and dry,
Just come to the well

And all who thirst will thirst no more,
And all who search will find what their souls long for,
The world will try, but it can never fill,
So leave it all behind, and come to the well

So bring me your heart
No matter how broken,
Just come as you are,
When your last prayer is spoken,
Just rest in my arms a while,
You’ll feel the change my child,
When you come to the well

And all who thirst will thirst no more,
And all who search will find what their souls long for,
The world will try, but it can never fill,
So leave it all behind, and come to the well

Yeah
Leave it all behind

The world will try, but it can never fill… leave it all behind

And now that you’re full,
Of love beyond measure,
Your joy’s gonna flow,
Like a stream in the desert,
Soon all the world will see that living water is found in me,
Cuz you came to the well

And all who thirst will thirst no more,
And all who search will find what their souls long for,
The world will try, but it can never fill,
So leave it all behind, and come to the well

Heart Songs

On my way back from taking my daughter to school this morning, I heard a song that I have grown very fond of hearing. The song is Matthew West’s ” Strong Enough”. I began to think of all the times that I have said I’m not strong enough to do this or that, when in the end I stood strong! I now know that it was my Faith that kept me going on and standing Strong Enough! I know in this day and time, we are going through so many battles, and there are times that we don’t think we will be strong enough to endure! The advice I have is simple but so hard to do : HOLD ON!! I know that you maybe saying, ” You don’t know my problems or what I’m going through”, and that is true. I know ONE that is though and HE sees it all. He knows when the mountains come and when they will end, but giving up isn’t going to get us closer to the outcome! We must HOLD ON and let our Faith work! We must press toward our prize of the Almighty and He will move in His time! God is Strong Enough! He is Strong Enough to conquer any battle we face! His word tell us in Exodus 14:14 ” The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace”. To me, this tell me that God is Strong Enough and He is going to fight for me! He will fight for you too!! Trust Him. Hold on to your Faith, and when the devil has you down so low you can’t hold any longer, grab hold of God’s unfailing hand and say, I’m Strong Enough!

Strong Enough by: Matthew WestYou must
You must think I’m strong
To give me what I’m going through
Well forgive me
Forgive me if I’m wrong
But this looks like more than I can do
On my own
I know I’m not strong enough to be
Everything that I’m supposed to be
I give up
I’m not strong enough
Hands of mercy won’t you cover me
Lord right now I’m asking you to be
Strong enough
Strong enough
For the both of us
Well maybe
Maybe that’s the point
To reach the point of giving up
Cause when I’m finally
Finally at rock bottom
Well that’s when
I start looking up
And reaching out
I know I’m not strong enough to be
Everything that I’m supposed to be
I give up
I’m not strong enough
Hands of mercy won’t you cover me
Lord right now I’m asking you to be
Strong enough
Strong enough
Cause I’m broken
Down to nothing
But I’m still holding on to the one thing
You are God
And you are strong
When I am weak
I can do all things
Through Christ who gives me strength
And
I don’t have to be
Strong enough
Strong enough
I can do all things
Through Christ who gives me strength
And I don’t have to be
Strong enough
Strong enough
Oh yeah
I know I’m not strong enough to be
Everything that I’m supposed to be
I give up
I’m not strong enough
Hands of mercy won’t you cover me
Lord right now I’m asking you to be
Strong enough
