  1. Words can not help me comprehend your love for me. It is so great that the heavens can't compare to it. When I am broken, you are always there to comfort me and protect me even before I cry out to you. You came and saved me when I was DEAD in sin. I will forever praise you and forever rejoice in your name.

  2. 1. I know nothing can hurt me
    Yet why am I afraid?
    Your glory blocks evil from my path,
    But why do I stop walking?
    I know that I'm protected by you,
    But why do I feel unsafe sometimes?
    I trust you Lord
    I gave my life to you
    I am in resting in your hands,
    Why do I feel like I'm falling?

    2. I have so many questions...
    Too many...
    If I give you everything,
    Why doesn't it feel like you've received it?
    I pray to you everyday,
    You answer it anonymously .
    Your love for me is unconditional,
    But is my love unconditional towards you?

    3. God, you gave me life.
    You gave me my family, and friends...
    Teachers and peers...
    A house and a place to learn during the day...
    Clothes, food, amid clean water...
    The gift of emotions and spirit...
    God, you gave me the ability to love you.
    But most importantly, you gave me the gift of your love.

  3. A Psalm of Praise

    O Lord, almighty God,

    how great are You who

    has saved us from our deeds!

    You sent Your only son

    to rescue us sinners while

    we were committing all

    sorts of crimes to your name!

    You who loved us through all that

    we had done!

    We are in ruins,

    and only You can help to

    build us back up!

    We need You as our strength as

    our only strength is in You!

  4. Psalm

    You, God, are the light of the world

    Light cannot shine unless there is darkness

    You put evil in the world so that we can see your goodness

    You put darkness here so that we will see your light

    We grow up in darkness and are scared of your light

    We grow up scared of the truths that you present to us

    We want to be the center of everything, we want to say what's right and wrong

    What we think is warmth, is just our imagination

    What we think is joy, is just a fantasy

    In the end, you are forever warming

    In the end, you are everlasting joy

    We think that we are so big on this small world

    We then see your glory in the couple of small galaxies you allow us to see

    We are in complete and wholesome awe of you

    You are across the whole universe

    You are everywhere and in everything

    To often we question your authority thinking that we know more

    To often do we idolize things that are even smaller than us

    While we are to busy looking at the ground

    You urge us to look to the stars

    You urge us to look to you

  5. Psalm of Praise:
    Oh lord, mighty God
    You are my fortress in which walls may not be overthrown.
    I put my trust in you, Lord.
    The lions bow down before you.
    I bow down before you.
    You have lifted the weight off my shoulders.
    Lord, you comfort me.
    You give me peace when I have yet to find.
    Beautiful is your name!
    You have protected me and watched me for I might fall astray.
    You catch me with your righteous hands, the hands that sculpted me.
    Often I doubt that you will catch me and I trust in myself, but therefore I tell you, I can not hold myself up, I haven't been.
    You have.
    Lord you made me, you know me.
    You lead me in the right direction!
    Lord, I praise you, I worship you!
    You have won the battle!
    Lord you are majestic and holy!
    Thank you Lord for always catching me and NEVER letting me fall.

  6. My God, I know that only you can rescue me from the undertoe of the ocean,
    But I find myself still turning to worldly things.
    The waves of the world suck me out to the open waters where I am alone and unprotected,
    Only you can be my life saver and pull me back to shore.
    Be my lighthouse, O Lord, that guides me to familiar land,
    You are my open waters God,
    For I fear you, but you provide me and island to turn to.
    The world is an anchor and I am sinking, only you can untie me and bring me to sand,
    Show me, O God, how to be a ship that follows the light of the lighthouse.

  7. O Lord I feel as if you have turned your face away from me

    As if you are the tree for the fruit but I am unable to reach it

    As if you came for me but left me alone and abandoned

    But I realize O Lord that you never abandon us, just as you did with Joshua, you will never leave or forsake us

    You watch us day and night

    You are like a huge mountain, you tower over us but create a safe shelter in times of need

    O Lord you are here for us

  8. Oh how giving is The Lord
    He brought me in
    He took away my sin
    God never leaves me
    He never gives up

    Oh how great is The Lord
    He cares for me when no one else does
    He is here when no one else was
    God never leaves me
    He never gives up

    Oh how wonderful is The Lord
    I don't say thank you as much as I should
    But I know I could
    I just want to say thank you
    When I struggle you always come through
    God never leaves me
    He never gives up

  9. O, my Lord, in my times of struggle and sadness, you provided me with your strength and love. I was happy and never knew there was bad, but then I became bad and found evil. Then you showed me a hard time and I struggled for years. I thought I would never get out of my hard times. But then my parents made me come to Westminster, and I didn't know anything about it except that it was a preppy privet school and I never got to shadow. I started Westminster last year and it changed my life. I came to know Christ, I even learned how to use a Bible for the first time. You Lord got me through those times. You guided me to Westminster because your plan for me is here.

  10. Why? Why? Why?
    Why do you love us so much? We fail everyday but you still love and care for us.
    Why? Why? Why?
    Why did you let Jesus die on the cross to pay the punishment we so rightfully deserved?
    Why? Why? Why?
    We don't deserve anything but death but you still give us life. Why?

  11. God you are there. You know what I do and don't do. You know what I say and don't say. You know what I can handle and what I cant. You give me jobs that you know I can handle. Like a father and his son.The boy cannot do things that his father can. He cannot build houses,support a family be a soldier.The boy takes on jobs and problems on that he knows he can handle. God does that with us. He raises us from a boy spiritually to a man. We all face problems that we can handle as boys spiritually but then God tests us as men and women of God. We think its to hard but God knows what we can and cannot handle. That's and example of how he loves us, he wants us to grow and to fend for yourself's. Fight the good fight, finish the race,your God loves you with such great intensity, we will never know.

  12. O my Father in Heaven, to this day I am longing for You...
    Everyday, I struggle with making the right decisions over the wrong decisions.
    And every night, I am forgiven by You.
    Father, help me to know the difference between right and wrong decisions.
    Help me to grow closer to You spiritually.
    Satan, I bind you in the name of Jesus!
    You cannot hinder me from the presence of God Almighty, for He has already seen my future and provided for me.
    I cast out each and every one of your demonic agents, their evil plots and command you to go right now in the name of Jesus!
    Jesus, I cast my cares and troubles unto You.
    For You already have established me as a king and I will do as a king shall do.
    And also because You are the One who knows my heart 100% and what I need the most in life.
    Father, I praise Your Holy Name and I thank You that you have seen my future and already provided.
    I thank you for this day and for Your blessings established in my life in Jesus name Amen.

  14. Oh Lord you are magnificent
    You created us from dust
    And you led us through life
    For you are the God of the universe
    Why must you come down and die a horrible death for us
    You love us more than all your other creations, yet we are foolish and sinful
    Our love compared to yours is like a drop of water in a raging sea
    For you are almighty and more holy than all, and we are dust
    Yet you love us enough to die a torturous death for us
    Lord you are truly magnificent

  15. Dear God,
    Why do you show so much grace?
    Eventhough we deserve to die

    Your light leads us
    Through the darkness
    You shine
    Eventhough we deserve to die

    Your love fills our hearts
    Our hearts are never empty
    You love us so much
    Eventhough we deserve to die

    Your protection is everlasting
    You protect us from the grips of satan
    Eventhough we deserve to die

    You show so much grace
    Eventhough we deserve to die

  17. I am Worthy?

    I am the car, you are the handy man
    You find the things that make me whole
    You are always there to restore me when I am broken
    You re-upholster me on the inside and apply a fresh coat of wax on the outside
    you make me feel brand new, like I am starting over with a clean slate
    Do I really deserve this wax?
    Do I really deserve this new inside?
    No, but your grace is a never ending water fall that keeps on flowing.
    I am worthy?
    He believes I am worthy?
    I am worthy.

  18. Psalm Of Lament

    I feel like I am the only good person on this Earth
    I have gotten nowhere
    All the others mock me
    They are having fun
    Enjoying life
    Not knowing what comes next
    They do bad things
    Ungodly sins
    They act as if they don't need you God
    They are so happy
    I am alone
    Depressed
    I want to join them and enjoy life
    But then God at my worst moments
    Your love surrounds me
    You answer my prayer
    I remember that all I need is you
    I am not ashamed
    For I have everlasting life
    The others will go to Hell
    You love me
    And I love you
    With you I am the happiest person on Earth
    Thank you God

  19. LORD it is hard for me to believe in something that I cannot see.
    Unfortunately, you are invisible to the human eye.
    Although, through struggles and trials, I feel something with me.
    Something unexplainable.
    As I think back to what it could be, I realize it is you.
    You have been with me during the pain.
    You have been with me during the sadness.
    You have been with me during the anger.
    It is you that pushed me through it.
    You gave me this battle because you knew I could handle it.
    God, you made me a strong person.
    Yahweh, you carved the path before me.
    It seems as if you would be busy with the other seven billion people in the world.
    But, you are not.
    You are with me every step of the way.

  20. A Psalm Of Praise

    My God, my God glory is all your being
    you deliver me and crush my enemies
    All Your doings are for the good only
    and strike down the evils of the world
    You speak only the truth
    and no lies escape Your lips
    Your every doing is done to the fullest
    You focus on the heart
    and open Your arms to everyone
    We fail in the sight of Your eyes
    yet You love us all the same
    When we stumble You are right there picking us up
    When the clouds of despair are looming over us
    You are the only light that can make the clouds disappear
    You are my teacher and You teach Your people
    to the right path and how to travel it.

    O Lord you love everyone, even if there turned from you.

    You care for the broken,
    you nurture the hopeless.
    O Lord you love everyone, even if there turned from you.

    You died for the sinful,
    you saved the unsaved.

    You are the All-Mighty.

  22. For you oh Lord are oceans compared to me, a droplet.
    You are the righteous tree giving life where I am the sinful weed, spreading nothing but hurt.
    I put my trust in you oh lord, I take refuge under your mighty hand.
    For I am stubborn and cant see over the next ridge, but you guide me through the winding path day and night.
    You are my shelter, when I am weak, and my sword when I am strong. To you alone I retreat to.
    Without you I am nothing, for you knitted me in my mothers womb, all of my imperfectins are made perfect in your eyes.
    You use me and know what I will do yet I have freedom in what I do. You are my light on my unforeseen path.
    I shall look at you, for nothing compares to the great "I am." Nothings stands in your way and yet you go out of your way and rescue me.

    You care for all your people every single one;
    You have never given up on us or stopped loving us;
    You forgive us and help us us through anything.
    We are sinners but you still love us and watch over us;

    You goodness is beyond praiseworthy
    You are always open and available to hear my prayers
    When I walk into a tough conversation
    You hear my silent prayers and guide me through it

    I cannot thank you enough, God, for what you do

  26. Psalm of Praise

    Oh Lord, you have delivered me from the pit of sin
    Your mighty hands grabbed me
    They pulled me up when al hope was lost
    Others words can harm me no more
    Your love is deeper than the oceans
    Your grace is higher than the skies
    What could ever destroy your love, Oh God
    Let us come and worship our creator
    Let us pour out our hearts and release our burdens
    For he knows how many hairs on our heads
    We have no one to fear, for God is on our sides
    The God of angel armies
    My savior you welcome me with open arms
    If we trip, you are there to lift us back up
    You look into our hearts, and into you I retreat

  27. O God why, why bring me to such a wonderful place just to be brought down?
    It feels like some one is holding my ankles and pulling down, down, down.
    This wonderful plan you have for me, seems like it is going no where fast.

    The people here are nice when they see me.
    But as soon as they turn around Bitter words come sputtering out.
    Then I can not see the Grace and Mercy, when they mention your name.

    But I have full faith in you.
    My ancestors like David and Jesus have been mocked and their future was amazing.
    I have seen your goodness in many people, so I will turn to you, and look to you in my times of doubt.
    And I will pray for them, and their wellbeing.
    God, I can see your kindness, now please, God, show them what kindness is.

    Give thanks to him,
    he has given you another day on this earth.
    We should glorify him in all that we do.
    Preach his word,
    for all to hear.
    Love his word,
    for his word is beautiful.
    When he speaks,
    we should listen.
    When he tells us to do something,
    do it!
    For he is a merciful God,
    we don't deserve him but we get him.
    Read his word,
    develop your life on it.
    His word is the truth,

    Ask for forgiveness if you stumble,
    he will help you.
    He has loves you and will always love you,
    he will never stop.
    Shout to him now,
    for he is always listening.

  29. O Lord, you are a being above any other,
    with a kingdom that cannot be conquered.
    You plan my life with Your loving will,
    which is like a roaring waterfall that
    never stops flowing out tender care.
    You have such a strong attachment to us,
    stronger than any steel bond.
    Your omniscience allows you
    to treasure every human on earth,
    like a farmer does to his corn.

    You know my every detail,
    like a collector is conscious
    of every dent in his antiques.
    He knows the imperfections
    and still cherishes them.

    You know I should be condemned for eternity,
    but through your grace and mercy,
    You gave away your most precious prize,
    the one thing you held most dear since
    the beginning of time; your son.
    He died without ever doing anything wrong.
    This was because of your concern for us.
    He went to suffer our punishment
    so we could be with you.
    I thank you for what you have done.
    We owe you more than our lives,
    but you do not need anything in return.
    That is real grace, and it feels like
    I have tasted the chocolate on
    the tip of my tongue.

    When I allow others to put me down

    But I also know, to you, nothing is impossible.
    Your people are like your blank canvas,
    Waiting for you to bring color and design.
    O Lord, all powerful Lord
    You protect me, and even when I disobey you,
    You still protect and love me eternally.

  35. Nightmare by 97
    Words spoken by God
    A Psalm of Lament
    Created Monday September 30, 2013

    Tossing, Turning, Crying, Screaming
    “God what is happening to me?”
    Curled up in bed, wide awake, can’t go to sleep.
    Thinking, trying to figure life out.
    Lights out, who’s there?
    My eyes closed, yet I see a demon following.
    “Where is the angel by my side?”
    I scream, I cry, “Help me find a place to run and hide.
    Give me something. I can’t see,
    What to do what to do, or who to be.”
    I awake my nightmare ending, only to begin again as I live.
    God says to me: “Stop this pretending!
    I’ve been here all along singing over you.
    I haven’t let you go.
    You still keep screaming as you look around and below.
    All you needed to do was look up to find comfort and peace.
    To find comfort and peace, you must find Me.
    You know and see the way it should be, yet you beg for a miracle.
    Your solution is so simple.
    Seek Me, truly seek Me.
    I’m waiting come find Me.”
    “I will no longer wait, forget all the horrors.
    They all soon fade when I remember I’m Yours.

  40. Why are you letting this happen to me? How come no one else feels so poorly? In the bible, romans nine, it says that "Everything happens for the better.
    I dont know if i need help seeing it but there in. pais no
    light in this future. I almost feel as though you are trying to direct to follow a different road, by completely destroying the road I follow currently. I feel alone god, and i know you say that you are near the broken hearted, but maybe you are off doing more important things like curing cancer or ending world hunger. I feel alone, similar to how pi felt when he was stranded in the middle of the ocean with no supplies to keep him alive (life of pi movie) If it was true that the lord is always with mr, then wouldn't you know how much pain i am in, instead of me having to right this psalm of lament to remind you god that.........I NEED HELP.
