I hope you are doing well....
These are scary times; I hope you are doing well on the inside (in spite of what is happening).
It helps to fix your eyes and your hopes on the King of Eternity, The Prince of Peace, the One who gave His life for you (and then conquered death by rising from the dead).
If you are having a hard time, try listening to my latest song and use your imagination to picture this scene in heaven from Revelation chapter 4. Think of the One who is Almighty and ask Him to help you fight your battles each day.
If you don't know the One who can really help you, ask Him into your life with a simple prayer: "Dear Lord Jesus Christ, please come into my life, forgive me of what I have done wrong, and speak to me through Your word (the Bible, starting in the book of John in the New Testament). Please guide me and help me today. In Jesus' name, Amen."
It is simple for us to accept His gift - but it was incredibly difficult for Him to pay the price by giving His life and then rising from the dead!
Here are the lyrics to my song:
His Name
Behold with the clouds of heaven
One like a Son of Man
And He came up to the Ancient of Days
And was presented before Him
(Repeat)
Clothed in a robe with golden sash
Head and hair were gleaming white
Eyes like a flame of fire
His face shining like the sun
Don't be afraid, I am the First and Last
Don't be afraid, I am the Living One
I hold the keys of death
I hold the keys of hell
And now I am alive forevermore!
======================================================
(Sound effects, narration from Revelation chapter 4):
After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven.
And I saw a throne with someone sitting on it.
And the One who sat there had the appearance of Jasper and Carnelian.
A rainbow shining like an emerald encircled the throne;
From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings, and peals of thunder!
Before the throne, seven lamps were blazing!
These are the seven Spirits of God....
Also before the throne there was what looked like a sea (expanse) of glass,
Clear as crystal!
=====================================================
His Name is called the Word of God
To Him was given dominion
His Name is called the Word of God
And every knee shall bow!
(Repeat)
He came up to the Ancient of Days
And was presented before Him
He received a glorious kingdom
Over heaven and earth!
(Key change)
His Name is called the Word of God
To Him was given dominion
His Name is called the Word of God
And every knee shall bow!
(Repeat)
Of the Son He says:
"Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever!"
(Repeat)
He sits at the right hand of the Majesty on high
Of the Son He says:
"Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever!"

Do you know Jesus? Ask Him into your life with a simple prayer: "Dear Lord Jesus Christ, please forgive me of all I have done wrong. Please come into my life and be my Lord and Savior. Amen."
So simple for us - but indescribably difficult for Him to pay the price on the cross to make it possible!
Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!
