The Lighthouse

There's a lighthouse inside of us,
that can burn so ever brightly,
It's the Holy Spirit we must trust,
and pray without ceasing.
Only we can put it out,
and quench the fire within,
if we don't remain devout,
then how can we be that beacon.

For if God is for us, who can be against us,
we stand in any type of weather, shape or form.
Does he not control the seas,
and by the wave of his hand, calms the storms?
Waves may come crashing in on our walls, the fog rolls in to blind,
but by the power of Jesus name the enemy we bind.
Just trust and believe and never doubt,
For in the midst of our storms,
Jesus is our lighthouse.

We are to become a beacon to the lost world,
a safe haven for them to guide to.
For every man, women, boy and girl, we are to bring the gospel of truth.
We stand and rejoice,
for we are the light of the world, for them to see.
When the storms roll in,
our precious Lord will lead them home, to safety.

For if God is for us, who can be against us,
we stand in any type of weather, shape or form.
Does he not control the seas?
And by the wave of his hand, calms the storms?
Waves may come crashing in on our walls; the fog rolls in to blind,
but by the power of Jesus name the enemy we bind.
Just trust and believe and never doubt,
for in the midst of our storms,
Jesus is our lighthouse.

John 8:12

12When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

A Hope Beyond Our Own

I see your love in the early morning rise.
It's full of your mercies and loving kindness.
I fall to my knees and cry,
For it leads me to repentance.
For I want my heart to be undivided,
Lord make it your own.
To be lead by Jesus Christ,
My only true hope.

A hope beyond our own, an expectation,
That His mercies are new every morning for us all.
He laid down the foundation,
Our Savior heeded the call.
He sent His only Son from above,
For He saw the souls that were lost.
I was captured by His unconditional love,
When He died on that old rugged cross.

By Aaron Guadarrama

Psalm 73:25-26

25 Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. 26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

More Love


Teach me thy will that I may follow, according to your plan.
Help me not be hasty and miss the way, help me to understand.
I want to know your will in my life; I want to know you more.
That I may not rear to the left or right, but stay on the straight path
You lay before me, oh precious Lord.

More faith, more hope, I ask from above,
But the greatest that remains that I ask from you Lord, is more love.
More faith, more hope, I ask from above,
But the greatest that remains that I ask from you Lord, is more love.

If you, O Lord, kept a record of my sins,
Lord, no way could I stand!
Unless you Lord, build this house this builder labors in vain,
Lord, may your hand guide me, show me your plan.
Your mercies are new every morning and forgiveness follows the rising sun.
Your love endures forever; you are my glory, my redeemer, the true Mighty One.

Lord what I’m asking is….more faith, more hope, I ask from above,
But the greatest that remains that I ask from you Lord, is more love.
More faith, more hope, I ask from above,
But the greatest that remains that I ask from you Lord, is more love.

The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me;
Your love O lord, endures forever
Do not abandon the works of your hands.
Help me not be hasty and miss the way, help me to understand.

Yes Lord, more faith, more hope, I ask from above,
But the greatest that remains that I ask from you today, is more of your love.

By Aaron Guadarrama

Psalms 121:7,8
The Lord will keep you from all harm—he will watch over your life;The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

Love left heaven for me

Love left heaven for me, on a mission for the Father, to do his will and not His.
For the Father and the Son have always been close for all eternity, so He left and was surely missed.

Love was born in humble settings, with just a few there to see,
though the world might have been quiet, heaven itself and all the Angels were rejoicing.

And over the years as he grew into the man he was set out to be, He knew how this was going to end. With all mankind lives hanging on the ballot for eternity, He knew the day would come that He will experience death.

With compassion and love in His eyes, healed the sick, fed the poor, told them the story of another kingdom for them in store.

Along the way pick up some friends and taught and shared what was His, twelve to be exact, though one would betray him with a kiss, betrayed but love for him he did not lack.

He was captured and thrown in jail for no reason, to be flogged, kicked, and made fun of. Barely standing in front of His excusers, all battered and bruised, he was the light of world that still showed love.

Though they couldn’t find no fault in Him, he was punished with death on a cross that he would carry himself to his end. The weight of the world on his shoulders, soon it will be over and finally back with His Father again.

But death did not come quickly, agonized in pain, suffering severely, with nailed hands and feet to the cross, with His blood running down his brow. He suffered tremendously for us, that one day we all would be with Him now.

As they took him down that cross to be laid to rest, I am being reminded that Love left heaven for me, on a mission for the Father, to do his will and not His. Because he loved Him so much, He wanted me to experience the same love of the Father as well because we are His.

Death did not end his life, but made the way for all of us to believe. For He rose on the third day, and forever and ever he sits as King of Kings, Glory in the Highest, Prince of Peace.

Love left heaven for me, I’m glad He did, for love is eternity.

John 3:16

16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[a] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

A Love That Never Fails.

Words are hard to find, to express how I feel for you. It runs so deep, into my soul to keep.
Your love I can't describe, what burns inside my heart with such truth. It runs so deep, into my soul to keep.

In the gentleness of your touch, the warmth I feel when I’m around you, how this love begins to unveil. Your tenderness I embrace, with your kiss reveals a sweet truth that we are dedicated to a love that never fails.
What I’ve found out about this mystery, why it's forever eternity, that there is no limit to its faith, its hope, truly it prevails.
For I am captured by your wonder, and all I can do is surrender, to a love that never fails.

Love is waiting, love is gentle, love is not envy, and not boastful.
Love is not self-satisfied, or keeps no score of wrongs; Love is not impolite but will delight in playing you a song, you are my song.

In the gentleness of your touch, the warmth I feel when I’m around you, how this love begins to unveil. Your tenderness I embrace, with your kiss reveals a sweet truth that we are dedicated to a love that never fails.
What I’ve found out about this mystery, why it's forever eternity, that there is no limit to its faith, its hope, truly it prevails.

1 Corinthians 13: 4-8

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8Love never fails.

My Struggle



It’s early morning, didn’t sleep well last night, my mind occupied with this world and yours.
I struggle just praying, I wrestle and fight, and now more than ever I need you O Precious Lord.

After the beating I have taken this day, my flesh is weak; I am hearing in my head could you not tarry?
Empty words are what I seem to pray, trying all I can to seek, I am hearing in my head could you not tarry?

Then I hear you say, linger in expectation, and wait for me. I am the God of creation; I will come to rescue thee. Stay in place, and stand firm in readiness to receive, I will not be late, but have faith and believe. To bring you strength and help you stand, and when the battle is over, it will be Me holding your hand

It’s a daily fight, for I know I don’t struggle against flesh and blood, but your rod and your staff, they comfort me my heavenly Father.
I will sleep peacefully tonight, through the storms and floods; I am safe knowing you are with me, my protector, and my watchtower.

I hear you say, linger in expectation, and wait for me. I am the God of creation; I will come to rescue thee. Stay in place, and stand firm in readiness to receive, I will not be late, but have faith and believe. To bring you strength and help you stand, and when the battle is over, it will be Me holding your hand.

Ephesians 6: 10 -18
The Armor of God 10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

Prodigal


When I was young, and free,
I thought my good intentions were pleasing.
I heard about you, read about you,
And from time to time,
Would sing about you, I was believing.

But I began to follow the crowd,
Just to please my friends.
My mind began to cloud,
And I found myself less with you to spend.

I don’t want to spend another day without you,
I wish to give you my all.
Draw me to the Father, on my knees I crawl.
Wasted years,
How I never listened to your call,
Lord,
I cry for forgiveness in tears,
Please deliver me from prodigal.

My heart is lament; I need a touch from you now,
Make me an instrument and teach me how.
For I want to do your will,
And please the Father.
Only you can fulfill,
The dreams and goals for my life,
There’s no other.

I don’t want to spend another day without you,
I wish to give you my all.
Draw me to the Father, on my knees I crawl.
Wasted years, how I never listened to your call,
Lord,
I cry for forgiveness in tears,
Please deliver me from prodigal.

I thought my good intentions were pleasing.
I heard about you, read about you,
And from time to time,
Would sing about you, I was believing.

The Marriage Prayer

Oh Heavenly Father, I have found favor in your eyes,
Truly, Lord you have blessed me.
Today my heart has become one with my wife,
Forever be one, living for you Father for eternity.
I've waited for this moment to arrive;
I've waited patiently to drink the cup of love.
In Holy matrimony, today my Lord,
You have brought us together from above.
There she is, as radiant I had dreamed and imagined,
My new beloved wife.
Here I am, before you Father,
As her new husband, thank you for your blessings,
My Lord guide us as we begin our new lives.
This beautiful gift you have given me I will treasure,
I will hold and guard dear to my heart.
I will not take for granted of your love for us Father,
You are the center of our attention
Indeed the most important part.
Our faith, our hope, our love is in you,
We recognize Father you are the marriage builder.
My deep love for her can only come from my true first love,
The One died on the cross
Who made both of our lives brand new,
Thank you for our salvation, my precious Savior.
Lord, I know today, saying I do, were more than just words,
Was more than just a saying ritual in the wedding ceremony.
To have and to hold, For richer and for poorer,
In sickness and in health, Till death separates us,
Lord I pray, I honor what is Sacred, I pray that I live up to my testimony.
Lord, words can not express the gratitude of my heart the love I have for you,
The answered prayers and blessings you keep pouring like new shower rains.
There is nothing too small or too great that you can not see us through,
I know you will watch over this marriage that was planned and made in heaven.
Yes Lord; guide us with your hand,
As we walk together with you side by side.
Today a new chapter is unfolded; a new journey begins,
Thank you Heavenly Father, for my lovely bride,
In Jesus name I pray, thank you for my sacred gift.
Amen.

Proverbs 18:22
A man's greatest treasure is his wife
She is a gift from the Lord.
