Encouragement for Today
Welcome to a place where you can find encouragement for your daily walk with God!
White As Freshly Fallen Snow
My heart was red as crimson
With sin and guilt and shame,
But through His death and triumph
My Savior cleared my name.
He took my sinful record
And washed it all away;
His blood has bought my pardon
And makes me clean today.
Now when I sin and fail Him
I come and I confess,
His grace forgives and gives me
His perfect righteousness.
…
Stirred Up
Lord, stir my soul from deep within,
Reveal what’s good and cleanse from sin;
Renew my soul to long for You
And hunger for the Scriptures, too.
Revive my spirit with Your grace
To daily run my Christian race,
To learn and do Your will for me
And serve You with humility.
Incline my mind and heart, I pray,
To seek the things above each day
That I might scorn the devil’s lies
And win with joy the lasting prize.
…
God’s Love for Me
God’s love for me is boundless –
It’s deeper than the sea
And won’t run out no matter
How much He does for me.
God’s love for me is endless –
It never fades away.
He’ll always truly love me
Forever and a day.
God’s love for me is changeless –
No matter what I do
He sets His love upon me
Each day again like new.

The Lord Our God
The Lord our God is mighty –
Immortal King of kings
Whose glory fills the heavens
As all creation sings.
His strength is very gentle,
His tenderness is strong,
While holiness and mercy
To God the Lord belong.
He made us for His glory
To show His skill and love,
His wisdom and kindness
Are shining from above.

Let God Write the Story
So often as we talk through life
We want to know the ending;
We want to see it all work out
When things are just beginning.
But God most often doesn’t show
The map of where He’ll lead us;
He simply shows us day by day
The way to live for Jesus.
He knows the end, and that’s enough –
By faith we must believe it;
He’ll give us grace to get us through
If only we’ll receive it.
…
Whatever Comes This Year
Whatever lies ahead this year
I face with faith instead of fear
For God my Shepherd guides my way
And walks beside me day by day.
Whatever blessings bring delight
Will be reflections of God’s light,
And I’ll rejoice and look for ways
To lift my heart in thankful praise.
Whatever sorrows pierce my soul,
Whatever billows o’er me roll,
I’ll trust God’s grace will see me through
With strength to cling to what is true.
…
New Year Praise
I’m looking back on all the things
You’ve done for me this year,
And, Lord, I’m overwhelmed with awe
At grace so real and dear.
Who’d ever think of all the things
You ordered just for me,
And only You are able, Lord,
To work so perfectly.
Though words can’t say the thanks I owe,
I’ll praise You just the same,
And by my actions seek to show
How much I love Your Name.
…
As Christmas Ends
As Christmastime is ending
With all its festive light,
The trees and all the tinsel
Will sleep a year-long night.
But joy and peace continue
With hope and grace and love;
Goodwill is still extended
From God who reigns above.
Nativites are hidden –
In attics boxed away –
But Jesus stays among us
To guide us day by day.
…
Imagine Christmas
Imagine being Joseph
And looking for a place
To house a pregnant mother
But finding there’s no space.
Imagine being Mary
And laying God’s own Son
Within a rough hewn manger
Wrapped tight in plain homespun.
Imagine you’re a shepherd
While angel gladly tell
That Christ is come to save us,
Our true Emmanuel.
