Hebrews 12:12 So take a new grip with your tired hands and strengthen your weak knees.

I. LIFE IS A TOUGH JOURNEY-not for the weak, not for the overburdened
II. LIFE IS NOT A SPRINT-my strength is for you, your strength is for me
III. LIFE IS SOMETHING WE SHARE-people count, the way I act towards them makes them count, when I make others count I count

SPIRITUAL WORK

Journey with me
Not ahead
Not behind
I will walk with you

Pray with me
Others need our help
I can’t walk alone
Forgive me

Talk and I will hear
What I have I give
I want to be transparent
How can I help you?

I tired and weak
Helping builds my strength
My fervor grows
When I pray upon my knees

Jesus cares for each of us
He loves you and me
The best I do
Is when I love you

Life is tough
Not for solo lives
Together we can do
What Christ calls us to

Remember all the pain
Let His strength renew
Don’t drag me down
I depend on you

We fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:18

1. PRESENCE OF GOD-This is His world
2. VISION IN MY HEART-My CALL, My VALUE, My STRENGTH
3. HEAVEN IS A REAL PLACE-
a. I’m missing something-Heaven Complete
b. I is important here-Jesus will occupy my every thought
c. Time destroys-Heaven eternal

FIX OUR EYES
Devastation all around
My heart is troubled
My strength is gone
Time is pushing me down

Christ speaks to me
I love you
This is your life
I will use you

Feeling failure
Shortages at every turn
My path is rocky
My life incomplete

Christ speaks to me
I created you
Do this for me
Life is where you are

Oppression –depression
Seeking out my soul
A hidden hand destroys
Desperation stalking me

Christ speaks to me
I am in control
Be calm and hold my hand
Heaven is your home

Knowing God
In peace and grace
Standing at the tiger’s face
Jesus guides me home

Knowing God
When failure comes
His strength defends
The future’s son

Knowing God
In chaos deep
Grabbing hold of His feet
Jesus never fails

Knowing God
When times are tough
He listens as I cry
His love cleans my eyes

Knowing God
When I don’t know
What will come or go
I stand upon eternal life..made in Jesus Christ

Knowing God
I bend my knee
All I am I give to Thee
Tell me what to do

Knowing God
Will never go
My love will grow
Each day I know

Knowing God
My questions stop
Answers aren’t the key
It is Jesus Christ in me

What will I do?
O my King and Lord
As suffering rules each day
As darkness rules the night

I claim the SON
To give me living sight
That sees beyond the gloom
Confidence rules my life

You are always with me
Walking in my pain
Giving me assurance
In tragedy flowers still bloom

He is here inside my heart
Ruling my life with peace
Giving me Godly wisdom
To claim victory out of defeat

Jesus holds my future
Troubles can’t change that
I claim my Savior’s victory
In life I will not fear death

I was stunned
Overwhelmed
Fear came down
All that I held dear
Disappeared before my eyes
I couldn’t think
I lost control
I could not hold
The vision guiding me

Everything was changed
Nothing remained
All around was tragedy
My world was dark
Had I been wrong
What about my song?
But it wasn’t about me
We all needed help
Fear walked our land

This is the time to think
Time to be calm
Step by step
Rebuilding my resolve
Lord I need You
Be my eyes and feet
Hold my hand
As I walk in quicksand
Bring me through this fog

Restoration is the key
Not a time to mourn
Keep moving along
Do the right thing
No feelings required
Something greater than me
Is at work in my land
Take the Father’s hand
Wait upon the Lord

I don’t have to know
I cannot change these facts
I am not in control
But I know who controls me

He has set me free
This façade I’ve lived
Is not the truth
Serve the Lord with gladness
Jesus is here

Eternity is marching
Reaching into me
I can be His man
Serving where I am
Not for what I get
But because He loves me
Jesus has my hand
His love never fails
Christ loves me

Like Jesus
I will be
He lives
Inside of me
Expressing His desire
By the things I say and do

To many times
I want things my way
I can’t tell the times
It’s simply spending time
Kneeling at Jesus feet

Willingly I give
As I experience His love
Knowing I am His
His life in me
Changes all I do
Enabling me to see
The need in you

Today is the time
Holiness begins now
Setting time aside
To let Him abide
In my heart and mind
He is all I see
Jesus lives in me

No other god
Can set you free
Listen as I speak
“I’m in love with you”

All your life
You’ve sought my look
All your life
You’ve prayed

Now I’m here
To say to you
I’m listening
I love you

Light is here
It will guide your path
Especially when it’s dark
And you think you’ve lost your way

My gentle hand
Is strong and kind
My nudge will guide you
On a path that leads to me

I’m a jealous God
I want your time
Seek my face
All the time

Know that I am here for you
I died for you
I forgive you
I love you

I feel the pain
The rain
The wind
A hurricane coming
It’s back again

How can I know
A way to free
The hurting hearts
That soon will be

What is there
To strengthen them
Jesus Christ is here
He is within

Takes us through
The brutal hurt
Carrying our future
It’s not disturbed

Knowing we can be
As good as we were
Reminding me or mortality
Life comes from above

All the fullness
All the fear
A hurricane nears
I feel the pain

Jesus is the answer
Whenever we’re doubt
Jesus is the key
To learn what life’s about

All I am and hope to be
Wrapped up in Christ
He’s set me free
This world is not my home

Clay Corvin 9/22/05

Humans standing by our hearts
Reaching out to see
Plans can often fall aside
Jesus walks with me

I’m surprised and mortified
Aghast is a better word
The Lord knows and sees the rush
The future is consuming me

I want to serve
To carry His crown
My simple plans obstruct
The freeway of His love

I set aside my pain and hurt
Sharing with those in need
I find the salve of loving
Heals the pain in me

God is good in everyway
We are only here a day
His plan for each one of us
Trust the Lord; obey
