so deep - brings praise and joy to my soul..love!

sometimes god sends you an angel

today was the funeral from my grandmother and i really didn't feel good this days. this morning i posted the psalm 23 and the song "none but jesus" because i know that he is my strenght in this time and that he wants to rejoice my soul. and really! maybe one hour later i received a mail, that i won 2 tickets for a concert from brooke fraser (she actually sings the song below) and at the funeral i met my dearest aunt (meine Gotte). i dont see her so often but i really love her. i didn't expect her being there since she is not akin with my grandmother. what a surprise. This really saved my day and i am glad that i was able to spend this day with her.
god sends his messengers to show how much he loves us. thank you.

and God answered me in his word...

"Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him. Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I shall not be shaken. My salvation and my honour depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge. Trust in him you all people; put out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge."
 Psalm 62, 5-8

your love never fails

Nothing can separate 
Even if I ran away 
Your love never fails

I know I still make mistakes, but 
You have new mercy for me everyday 
Your love never fails

You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes 
There may be pain in the night
But joy comes in the morning 
And when the oceans rage 
I don’t have to be afraid 
Because I know that you love me 
And your love never fails 

The wind is strong and the water’s deep, but 
I’m not alone here in these open seas 
Cause your love never fails

The chasm was far too wide
I never thought I’d reach the other side 
But your love never fails 

You make all things, work together for my good

it hurts to leave someting behind from which you thought it would fill your life...

"Some time later God tested Abraham. He said to him, 'Abraham!' 'Here I am,' he replied. Then God said, 'Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac—and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain that I will show you.' Early the next morning Abraham got up and loaded his donkey. He took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac. When he had cut enough wood for the burnt offering, he set out for the place God had told him about.  On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance. He said to his servants, 'Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you.' Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac, and he himself carried the fire and the knife. As the two of them went on together,  Isaac spoke up and said to his father Abraham, 'Father?' 'Yes, my son?' Abraham replied. 'The fire and wood are here,' Isaac said, 'but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?'  Abraham answered, 'God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.' And the two of them went on together. When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood.  Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. But the angel of the Lord called out to him from heaven, 'Abraham! Abraham!' 'Here I am,' he replied. 'Do not lay a hand on the boy,' he said. 'Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.' Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram caught by its horns. He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son.  So Abraham called that place The Lord Will Provide. And to this day it is said, 'On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.' I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, and through your offspring Then Abraham returned to his servants, and they set off together for Beersheba. And Abraham stayed in Beersheba. " all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me.' The angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven a second time  and said, 'I swear by myself, declares the Lord, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son,
