Breathe On Me
(By Todd Fields, Christy Nockels and Nathan Nockels)
the song that we sang today in church really had an impact on me
VERSE 1
Find me here in this place - Son of God, Saving Grace
At this hour, all my days, breathe on me, breathe on me
Morning Star, shine Your light - as I walk through this life
God of pow'r, God of might - breath on me, breath on me
CHORUS
Forever, You are my reason for living - Merciful Savior unending - Breathe on me
VERSE 2
When I'm weak, You are strong - You breath in me will be my song
In You my King I belong - breathe on me, breathe on me
CHORUS 2
Forever, You are my reason for living - Merciful Savior unending - Breathe on me
Forever, You are the God of my story - Write every line for Your glory - Breathe on me
BRIDGE
Breathe on me, breathe on me
When I am weak, You are strong - Your breath in me will be my song
When I am weak, You are strong, You are strong
OUT
Find me here in this place - Son of God, Saving Grace
At this hour, all my days, breathe on me, breathe on me
More specifically the Line that reads
The 2nd line of the 2nd chorus had the greatest impact on me today
You are the God of my story,
write every line for your glory
May every line be lived out
Starting today
Even if I have to stop
and redo it
over and over again
before I get it right
Every line ~ 4 ur GLORY !!!

Father Knows BEST
As I was reading today I came across this story in a devotional book that I read often called Streams in the Desert. The excerpt is from the April 17 Reading Pages 158-160
The hand of the LORD has done this. (Job 12:9)
A number of years ago the most magnificent diamond in the history of the world was found... It was then presented to the King of England to embellish his crown of state. The king sent it to Amsterdam to be cut by an expert stonecutter.
He took this gem of priceless value and cut a notch in it. Then he struck it one hard time with his hammer, and the majestic jewel fell into his hand, broken in two.
That one blow with the hammer had been studied and planned for days, and even weeks. Drawings and models had been made of the gem. Its quality, defects, and possible lines along which it would split had all been studied to the smallest detail. And the man to whom it was entrusted was one of the most skilled stonecutters in the world.
The blow was no mistake it was the capstone and culmination of the stonecutter's skill. When he struck that blow, he did the one thing that would bring that gem to its most perfect shape, radiance, and jeweled splendor. The blow that seemed to be the ruin of the majestic precious stone was actually its perfect redemption, for from the halves were fashioned two magnificent gems. Only the skilled eye of the expert stonecutter could have seen the beauty of two diamonds hidden in the rough, uncut stone as it came from the mine.
Sometimes, in the same way, GOD lets a stinging blow fall on your life. You bleed, feeling the pain, and your soul cries out in agony. At first you think the blow is an appalling mistake. BUT it is not, for you are the most precious jewel in the world to God. And He is the most skilled stonecutter in the universe.
Someday you are to be a jewel adorning the crown of the KING. As you lie in His hand now, He knows just how to deal with you. Not one blow will be permitted to fall on your apprehensive soul except what the love of God allows. And you may be assured that from the depths of the experience, you will see untold blessings, and spiritual enrichment you have never before imagined.
Not a single blow can hit,
Till the God of love sees fit.
