It is You Lord not me

It is You Lord not me

December 3, 2020 Vani De Freitas Comments 4 comments

It is you Lord not me
I cannot without you. 

It is you Lord who wakes me up
It is you Lord who protects me in the night
It is you Lord who gives me the ability to move
It is you Lord who provides my meals
It is you Lord who gives me shelter
(Matthew 6:31-32; Luke 12:24)

It is you Lord who gives us a new day
It is you Lord who has given us nature’s beauty
It is you Lord who holds the water from above from destroying us
It is you Lord who gives us peace
(Job 12:15; Psalm 19:1)

It is you Lord who gives me wisdom and knowledge
It is you Lord who gives us passions and talents
It is you Lord who gives joy in our work
It is you Lord who blesses it
(Proverbs 2:6; James 1:17)

It is you Lord who wants good for us
It is you Lord who has a master plan
It is you Lord who orchestrates the universe
Yet, it is you Lord who has given us free will
(Proverbs 16:9, Galatians 5:13)

It is you Lord who saved me from the enemy
It is you Lord who bought me back
It is you Lord who took the sentence for me
It is you Lord who gives me life eternal
(Ephesians 2:8-9; John 3:16)

It is you Lord who loves me beyond measure
It is you Lord who forgives me every time
It is you Lord who has mercy upon me
It is you Lord who chases after me always
It is you Lord who truly loves me
(Ephesians 3:19; John 3:16; Psalm 103:12)

It is you Lord not me
I cannot do anything without you. 
I am nothing without you. 
I love you, Lord, forever
(John 15:4-5; John 1:3; Deuteronomy 31:8)

I praise the Lord and give Him all the glory for being everything to me. I remember to be grateful for every blessing. I remember to be thankful that He cares always. I remember to be grateful for His love. I praise His name. No matter what the circumstance I praise you, Lord. (Psalm 115:1)

I encourage you to give Him all the glory and praise Him through whatever circumstances you are in today.

    This one started off and progressed totally differently from every previous blog you’ve written. Yet it is simply real and so accurate. It truly is The Lord and not me, not us. Without him we are and can do nothing. Without him we have nothing. He is everything.
    Thank you!

    Vani, I so agree with Pastor. This one is so different in style from the rest.
    Let’s just praise the Lord for His love and mercy. We are nothing without Him. We were bought with a price – the previous blood of Jesus – and we are kept by His love.
    Bless God!
