Dear Friends Pursuing Christ,
Praise God that the vision God has given us is becoming a reality. What a privilege to be chosen by God for this task! The next few weeks (September 1-24) we will be praying and asking God what extra giving He wants us to give for “God’s House”, our soon to be Church Life Center. As many of you know we have received a gift from an anonymous donor to match what we pledge for the building. That means your pledge/gift actually doubles! So after some prayer, please send in your commitment cards to the church or place it in the offering plate by Sunday, September 25. On Sunday, September 25, we will celebrate and dedicate these gifts to God, pray for the next steps of the vision and after worship have some cake and punch. God is on the move at Freeman Presbyterian Church!
As you know I love to sing (please no comments). Besides, the Scriptures I shared with you on Sunday, August 28th a song by Lauren Daigle really encouraged me in my faith. With fear and trembling and then with much joy I said yes to God I am on board with your vision. I will not hold back from You! The song is called “I will Trust in You.”
Here are the lyrics.
Letting go of every single dreamI lay each one down at Your feetEvery moment of my wanderingNever changes what You seeI’ve tried to win this war I confessMy hands are weary I need Your restMighty Warrior, King of the fightNo matter what I face, You’re by my sideWhen You don’t move the mountains I’m needing You to moveWhen You don’t part the waters I wish I could walk throughWhen You don’t give the answers as I cry out to YouI will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!Truth is, You know what tomorrow bringsThere’s not a day ahead You have not seenSo, in all things be my life and breathI want what You want Lord and nothing lessWhen You don’t move the mountains I’m needing You to moveWhen You don’t part the waters I wish I could walk throughWhen You don’t give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!You are my strength and comfortYou are my steady handYou are my firm foundation; the rock on which I standYour ways are always higherYour plans are always goodThere’s not a place where I’ll go, You’ve not already stoodWhen You don’t move the mountains I’m needing You to moveWhen You don’t part the waters I wish I could walk throughWhen You don’t give the answers as I cry out to YouI will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!I will trust in You!I will trust in You!I will trust in You!
