GRADitude

Here's the video from a major life event for the Fosters. We thank all our friends whose prayers have strengthened and sustained us on this five year journey to a terminal degree in Leadership, and say with great humility- Soli Deo Gloria!

Wonder in the Wilderness


In this desert wilderness
Every heart is parched and dry
Amidst the trials and the tests
We wander as we wonder why
In this barren wilderness
Where there’s nothing to sustain
The starving soul is left to guess
If life will still remain

There is a fountain and there is a feast
And there is a mountain rising in the East
Where the Savior shall stand when the trumpet shall sound
In a dry and weary land life will surely abound.
But till that day we shall confess
These lessons of the wilderness
And in the midst of this wasteland
A pillar of cloud and of fire sifts the sand
Christ’s presence still abides
In the heart that will seek Him as guide.

And Jesus floods our thirsting hearts
In a wilderness we are set apart
Jesus feeds our hungering souls
When His presence is our highest goal
Jesus fills our searching minds
And manna from heaven we will find
He feeds our faith when we confess
His wonder in the wilderness.

And Jesus floods our thirsting hearts
In a wilderness we are set apart
Jesus feeds our hungering souls
When His presence is our highest goal
Jesus fills our searching minds
And manna from heaven we will find
He feeds our faith when we confess
His wonder in the wilderness.

This memory verse is on the treadmill...

"He (Christ) is able to save to the uttermost those
who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to
make intercession for them." Hebrews 7:25

Unto the Uttermost

Unto the uttermost the victory's won
Unto the uttermost for all who to Him come
He ever lives, ever intercedes for each of His own
Unto the uttermost-unto the uttermost His salvation is done

The Love of God is shed abroad
By his Spirit in our hearts
When we were weak he came to seek and to speak
And to vouchsafe the peace he imparts

What he started he will accomplish
That good work he began in you
He will perform it and make it complete
Till the day of Christ Jesus is due.

Unto the uttermost- He intercedes
Unto the uttermost His own blood He pleads
Unto the uttermost-He'll meet all our needs.
Unto the uttermost, unto the uttermost
We're freed indeed!

Unto the uttermost, He is able to save-
Unto the uttermost Even to the grave-
Unto the uttermost, He gave and gave
Unto the uttermost, unto the uttermost
Jesus will save!

Flawed Logic


Trouble is, this makes all the sense in the world to some people I know.What the postmodern world needs most is a true way to reckon reality.
