YOU ARE WORTHWHILE

You are worthwhile
For God has made you so.
He has promised to be with you
Wherever you may go.

You are worthwhile
Don't judge yourself so severe
Your feelings are not facts
And God's grace is always here.

You are worthwhile
Don't focus on each doubt
Live each day as it comes
And don't leave Jesus out.

You are worthwhile
Remember Christ died for you
He offers you forgiveness
And His promises are true.

You are worthwhile
It is not what others think of thee
That's not what's so important
It's God's opinion that counts, you see!

TURNING OBSTACLES INTO VICTORIES

Turning obstacles into victories
Is what Jesus did you see.
He arose from the grave
To claim a VICTORY

Turning obstacles into victories
God will show you the way
To overcome your failures
Ans make them success for today.

Turning obstacles into victories
When pain is with you day and night
Prayer will bring you comfort,
For God sees your plight.

Turning obstacles in to victories
When you  forgive a wrong
It will give you the victory
And carry you along.

Turning obstacles into victories
In an unchanged circumstance
Be loving and accepting
And God will your faith enhance!

JUSTICE

Justice...
You want for thee.
Justice..
You must give to others, you see.

Justice...
Conflicting feelings, not new.
Justice...
For others too few.

Justice...
Brings mercy to view
Justice...
Jesus died to justify you.

Justice...
The world makes a fraud.
Justice
Really belongs to God!

THE VALLEY OF DEFEAT

The valley of defeat
Comes to each of us one day.
We find a detour in life's road
And feel we've lost our way.

The valley of defeat
Perhaps we pursue the wrong thing?
God may want us on a different path
So blessings He may bring.

The valley of defeat
Circumstances are out of our control.
Stop, bow your head and pray
God's hand is there to hold.

The valley of defeat
Is not final, by the way.
God gives us a second chance
Ir's called a "new day!"

SEEK HIS GUIDANCE

Seek His guidance
In all you do
For His wisdom
Will see you through

Seek His guidance
When mistakes you've made
He is filled with mercy
For your sins He paid.

Seek His guidance
When hope seems to end
He's there beside you
He is your friend.

Seek His guidance
Let His Word be your guide
And His peace surely
With you will abide!

POINT THEM TO THE CROSS

Point them to the cross
When there's bitterness and strife.
Pain them to the cross
And Jesus' sacrifice.

Point them to the cross
When they have a load of care.
Point them to the cross
Have them leave their burdens there.

Point them to the cross
When their life is filled with pain
Point them to the cross
There's victory to gain.

Point them to the cross
When all their home is gone.
Point them to the cross
Christ can make them strong!

PEACE

Peace...
So often eludes us, you see.
Peace...
God meant for you and me.

Peace...
The deep, peace of the heart.
Peace...
That circumstance cannot depart.

Peace...
The world cannot give to you and me
Peace...
Only through God shall it be.

Pease...
Through sunny or stormy weather.
Peace...
With God, binds us together!
