Who Knows This Song?


Greetings to everyone. I hope you are all having a fabulous week so far. Usually when I feel burnt out or unmotivated, I retreat to the Lord for fuel. I just shut the door for a couple of hours or so and pour out to Him......telling Him everything in a pure, unpretentious way. He knows everything already, and yet He listens to my babblings and whinings. I'm not quick on picking up the phone and calling a best friend somewhere, I usually ring up buddy Jesus and empty out myself....I've found this the most rewarding way of therapy in my little experience.

I am not sure how badly you've felt unmotivated lately or how lonely you feel. I want you to know that you are surrounded by a cloud of witnesses. I want to assure you that there is a friend that will never leave or forsake you. I am confident that he is not particular about your height, size, accent, eloquence, qualification, color, or intelligence....He's only asking you to come as you are with all the burdens, weights, anxieties, worries, and troubles. You don't need to be a hero, He just wants you to be his own. He wants to take care of you.

Have you talked to the Lord today? have you read His word? what is He saying to you or perphaps you were in too much of a hurry to hear Him. We are created to commune with the Lord. Life has too many hurdles, let Him carry you through them. Life is a song, and at times we hit the wrong notes, God's love is the music that guides us through the song. Who better to help you through the song than the writer of the song and its music? Sing this song with me

What a friend we have in Jesus,

All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!

Perhaps you don't know the Lord or you've simply let the relationship you once shared with him slip...say this prayer with me


Lord Jesus, I confess that I am a tired and lonely sinner
I confess you as the Son of the Most High God
I realize my need of your love and redemption
Please come into my life and make me whole
Thank you Lord Jesus for saving my soul

God bless you, and keep you through this day and the next, and the next. I care for you and I am praying for you. If you confess the above prayer please leave a comment and a way to get in touch with you...or simply send a private message to oadeyem@ncsu.edu


Lesson Learned: Nobody does me like Jesus!
