Look Not Behind Thee



             I love this video! I love how a man points out that Lot's wife wasn't able to look a head and put her trust in Heavenly Father; that something better was coming. How often I don't see what Heavenly Father can see. But as I put my faith and trust in Him something better always comes. Everyday is in fact the first day of the rest of your life!!!

I Know That My Redeemer Lives

I remember singing the Hymn "I Know That My Redeemer Lives" one Sunday in church, and it hit me like a ton of bricks- all the reasons my Redeemer Lives. Tears filled my eyes as I sang and recognized the abundant blessings, love and comfort that He lives to freely give me.  The reasons for His life seemed to be never ending and the spirit touched my heart letting me know I have a Savior who loves me, knows me, is aware of my needs and fulfills those needs. 
He lives to....
1-Bless me with His love
2- Plead for me above
3- Feed my hungry soul
4- Bless in time of need
5- Grant me rich supply
6- Guide me with His eye
7- Comfort me when faint
8- Hear my soul's complaint
9- Silence ALL my fears
10- Wipe away my tears
11- Calm my troubled heart
12- All blessings to impart
13- Be a kind, wise Heavenly friend
14- Love me to the end
15- Be my Prophet
16- Be my Priest
17- Be my King
19- Conquer death
20-Prepare my mansion above
21- Bring me safely home

This is why He lives. Because He loves us!  I know He not only lives for me, but He knows and lives for you too
"Oh sweet the joy this sentence gives! I know that my Redeemer lives!!!"
