MY SOUL LONGS FOR YOU

THE LONGING 💜

”God, you are my God;
I earnestly search for you.
My soul thirsts for you;
my whole body longs for you
in this parched and weary land
where there is no water.

I have seen you in your sanctuary
and gazed upon your power and glory.
Your unfailing love is better than life itself;
how I praise you!

I will praise you as long as I live,
lifting up my hands to you in prayer.
You satisfy me more than the richest feast.
I will praise you with songs of joy.

I lie awake thinking of you,
meditating on you through the night.
Because you are my helper,
I sing for joy in the shadow of your wings.
I cling to you; your strong right hand holds me securely.”

Psalm 63

FRIHET.

Långfredagen.

Jesus dog på ett kors.

Kompakt mörker, död och hopplöshet.

Tystnad.

En ny dag gryr.

Ljuset bryter igenom.

Marken skakar…

Livet segrar!

Hopp!

Liv!

Frihet!

Jesu dog och uppstod.

Tog min skuld, sjukdom, synd och skam.

Tog mina bördor, bojor och fångenskap.

Gav mig liv, förlåtelse, hopp, kärlek, glädje.

Av nåd. Helt oförtjänt.

Öppnade vägen till Gud.

Jesus – Den vackraste gåvan.

Jag kan inget annat än att bara säga:

Ja! Tack!

Och berätta om den vackraste gåvan jag fått: Jesus

”Han har frälst oss från mörkrets välde och fört oss in i sin älskade Sons rike. I honom är vi friköpta och har fått förlåtelse för våra synder.”
Kol 1:13-14

”Ni som var döda på grund av era överträdelser och er oomskurna natur, också er har han gjort levande med Kristus. Han har förlåtit oss alla överträdelser och strukit ut det skuldebrev som med sina krav vittnade mot oss. Det har han tagit bort genom att spika fast det på korset.”
/Kol 2:13-15

NEW VISION

”Come up here.
Come outside.
Lift up your eyes.

Lift your eyes, high above the distractions and snares.

I ’ve got so much more for you.
So much more.

Follow me.
There is so much more to explore.
So much more to see.
New ways, new roads, new freedom for you to walk in.

Let go of those heavy burdens.
My yoke is easy and my burden is light.

New vision. I breath my Spirit upon you.
Be free.”

”For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
/Isaiah 55:8-9

”Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
/1 Corinthians 2:9

”It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”
/Galatians 5:1

STREAMS OF LIVING WATER

?STREAMS OF LIVING WATER??

”The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want

He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.”

?He will be like a planted tree over streams of water,
producing its fruit during its season.
Its leaf never droops—
but in all he does, he succeeds.”??
