Rooted in Light

From Psalm 92:1-2:  “It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to Your name, O Most High, to declare Your steadfast love in the morning and Your faithfulness by night.”

Father in Heaven

Praising His blessed name

Eternity’s hope

Love lights redemption’s flame

 

Father, O Most High

Sharing His steadfast love

Each morning and night

Rooted in light above

 

Father, Lord of Hosts

Blessing with mercy’s hand

Depth of love’s light

Just as He always planned

 

Father’s grace offered

Calling Son’s love to serve

Eyes opened to light

Salvation shall preserve

 

Father’s promised path

Shredding darkness with light

Christ rises from death

Righteous love taking flight

David Jeremiah Quote

Whenever we search out biblical truth about Christ–and we find it in Leviticus as well as in Luke–we are turning our leaves toward the light.

From Leviticus 24:1-4:  “The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ‘Command the Israelites to bring you pure oil of beaten olives for the lamp, that a light may be kept burning regularly.  Aaron shall set it up in the tent of meeting, outside the curtain of the covenant, to burn from evening to morning before the Lord regularly; it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.  He shall set up the lamps on the lampstand of pure gold before the Lord regularly.'”

David Jeremiah (born 1941) is an American pastor and Christian author.

At times, peace in man’s world seems fleeting and short-term.  Our short-sighted actions leave the next generation with quite a darkness to overcome.

Praises of Joy

Witnessing God’s mercy

Praises of joy heard above

Rejoicing in His presence

Angels’ voices share love

 

Flowing with love-filled peace

God’s divine plan offers hope

Turning back enemy’s breath

Grace flows down Zion’s slope

 

Gathering Shepherd’s flock

Each sinner trusts light ahead

Exulting in God’s glory

Fed from love’s daily bread

 

Coming to Calvary

Christ bearing salvation’s key

Raising love beyond heavens

Debts nailed to brutal tree

 

Embracing righteousness

Darkness no longer pursues

Proclaiming risen Good News

Savior’s love, always true

Charles Stanley Quote

Our culture says, “Don’t let anyone push you around,” but Jesus teaches that it is the merciful, the weak, and the peacemakers who are successful in God’s Kingdom.

From Matthew 5:5-9:  “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.  Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.  Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.  Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.  Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”

Charles Stanley (1932-2023) was an American pastor and Christian writer.  He was dedicated to leading a teaching ministry.
