Five Minute Friday:Here

5 Minute friday again! whoohoo
objective: write 5 minutes, no backtracking or editing.
word: Here


"My comforter, my all in all, Here in the love of Christ I stand."
I stand in Christ's comfort after these last few weeks. Well, I stand in it and sometimes I crumble and fall in it folded up like a scared, worn out child, with tears streaming down my face and His comfort surrounding me. But that's where I am. Still sad at times but knowing that Christ is my all in all. He is all I need, all I really want deep in my soul even when my flesh cries out for false comfort.  He is the only thing that truly satisfies.

"For every sin on Him was laid, Here in the death of Christ I live."
I live here everyday. In His death-which brought me life. Life abundantly, Life everlasting. My sin, oh the sin that entices me so often has been defeated. I must learn to walk in His victory, to stand in His grace and to love in His freedom.

"Til He returns and calls me home, Here in the power of Christ I stand"
I stand in His power. His power to walk through the unknown. To make life work in this apartmentw ith three littles all day. The power to trust when finances just aren't there. The power to love this amazing man God has given me that works so hard for us.
STOP

I love the song "In Christ alone" that is where I found these lyrics. It's my lifesong at the moment. It is the first song we heard at North Brook as well:)
