Fearfully and Wonderfully Made- Song by: Matt Redman
I made this video as a love song to my Savior. The footage was taken from my honeymoon in California. To God be the Glory. Always.
I pray that YOU bless each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads this prayer or listens to it with sufficient compassion, ability to encourage, and hope for the future. The times may seem dark and yet the light shines brightest in the dark. YOU know the challenges we each will be going through and YOU prepare us through sanctification as YOU shape, prune, and mature our soul into the perfect image of the LORD. In these challenging times it is wise to lean on the LORD in all things. As mature believers, we understand that oftentimes the trials and testing seasons we face are for the benefit of others as well as ourselves. When we face unexpected challenges, it is wise to seek the LORD’s guidance. 'But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. [Final Words] Therefore, beloved, since you are waiting for these, be diligent to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace.' [2 Peter 3:13-14 ESV]
Hopefully like a diamond formed from compressed coal your and my soul is closer to reflecting the image of the LORD. No doubt you are aware that not all who consider themselves to be saved by God have been saved. Hopefully your loved ones will not experience the rejection of the LORD and YOU will receive crowns from the LORD in the new heaven and earth. ‘Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.
I pray LORD that YOU raise up trustworthy and truth-seeking reporters, editors and newscasters and give them a voice which will drown out those focused on deceiving or misleading. Do what is necessary to motivate ABC, BBC, CBS, CNN, FOX, MSNBC, NBC, New York Times, NPR, Reuters, Washington Examiner, Washington Post and other news networks to focus more on discovering newsworthy material and posting it with less bias. I pray for an increase of respect for prolife individuals within and among news organizations in the USA, Canada, UK, and western Europe.
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Saturday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Sunday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Throughout the day on Saturday, the LORD brought the Biblical verse from Isaiah text of Isaiah 40:31 ESV "but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary and they shall walk and not faint." to me multiple times. The best of times are ahead by God’s grace.
1. For those of us who have a personal relationship with the LORD through the atonement of the Christ, the best good and great experiences for each of us await us in the new heaven and new earth
2. The good, untroubled, and over-sized government dispensing goodies and cash times tend to bring out complacency, idleness and sheepleness.
3. Humans learn more from challenges and hard times. Our character is forged in the fires of opposition and friction.
Quotes
1. Robert Burns 'But Mousie, thou art no thy-lane, In proving foresight may be vain: The best laid schemes o’ Mice an’ Men; Gang aft agley, An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain, for promis’d joy!
Still, thou art blest, compar’d wi’ me! The present only toucheth thee: But Och! I backward cast my e’e, on prospects drear! An’ forward tho’ I canna see, I guess an’ fear!.
2. Jon Jones: Life is supposed to be about love and good times, and so I've forgiven myself after paying the consequences of my bad decisions, and I'm ready to move forward and allow my life to be a light to others that it's never over, even for a person like me, who has lost a tremendous amount of respect among my peers, my fans, my friends and family.
3. Tom Cruise 'If you have kids, it is the most important thing to create good times.'
4. Kim Reynolds 'The power of prayer and faith in God is something that has guided so many of us in good times and bad.'
5. Billy Joel 'I would not leave you in your times of trouble. We never could have come this far. I took the good times, I'll take the bad times, I'll take you just the way you are.'
6. Frankie Ballard 'The bad times make the good times better'

a. 2 Peter 3:13-14 ESV But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. [Final Words] Therefore, beloved, since you are waiting for these, be diligent to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace.'
b. 2 Peter 3:11-12 ESV 'Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn!"
c. Ephesians 5:16-17 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore, do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
