 She’s Married to Whom?
Written by: Jana M. Gamble

I was just a little girl running around in banana curls-
Playing dress up and house but didn’t really know what marriage was about.
But one thing I knew was that a family consists of a father, a mother, two kids and a dog.
That’s how we played back in the day.
So why doesn’t my home fit that equation to myself I would say.
My Mami working two and three jobs to keep a roof over our heads and on the table a hot plate.
Every Sunday making sure we made it to church even if we had to be late.
But it took me twenty-five years to see 20/20- to see the vision of my mother’s marriage clearly.
My mother’s husband she does love dearly.
Do you know this man, I ask to those who can hear me.
Sincerely I say.
Sincerely it is written in Isaiah 54:5.
Any woman alive should be in love with this guy.
His name- Jehovah;
Jehovah Jireh is our provider, an agape lover, healer and friend.
His love will last from beginning to end.
Definitely not something you can find in a club.
No game will He spit in your ear.
Instead, endless wisdom shall He provide filling you with knowledge and opportunities that will bring tears to your eyes.
He brings peace and understanding even if you’ve been called to the “Single Life.”
He can raise you up out of troubled times by you simply paying your tithes.
He will love you with an unfailing love.
Sometimes I still feel like that little girl playing house, but now the stakes are higher.
I have two children of my own and I- their provider.
Everyday I pray about marriage to a special man, but until I get revelation that it is God’s plan- on my two feet will I stand.
So love yourself, love your spouse, and love your children and those to come, yet most importantly make sure you keep God your #1!

Prayem for Obedience

 

Today I could use your help Lord
Can you teach me about this obedience stuff?
I try to understand Lord, but it’s really kinda tough
My child it’s pretty simple, this I say to you
Read my Word, say your prayers and always do what’s right
Listen to your parents- even obey them when they’re out of sight
Teach your friends about me, and try hard not to sin,
but if you do- ask for forgiveness then start all over again.

Church on The Rock



Thank you Lord for Church on The Rock
An anointed place that fills me like a shock
Where your spirit is felt from wall to wall
Where your ways are followed to all that you call
Where the gifts you bring are more priceless than gold
And lives are touched from the young through the old
I thank you Father for Pastors so grand
Who guide us with their loving hands
Bless our church and those that attend
Help us to bring more family and friends
Help us to be a light to the lost
Thank you Jesus for paying the cost
Thank you Jesus for your boldness to teach
And we pray for the souls that our ministries will reach
For you alone Lord will we seek
Bless our congregation throughout this week
All this in your name we pray
Amen.
