Talking to Jesus...

 This new song by Elevation Worship called "Talking to Jesus" that I just love!  Here are the words...

[Verse 1]

Grandma used to Pray out Loud

By her Bed every Night

To me it Sounded like Mumbling

Like she was out of her Mind

She said Boy this kind of Praying

Is what Saved my Life

You oughta try it some time

Now I know she was Right

[Chorus]

She was Talking to Jesus

She was Talking to Jesus

She’d been Talking to Jesus

For all of her Life

[Verse 2]

Mama used to drag me to Church

Sunday Morning

And Wednesday nights

Khaki pants and a Polo Shirt

Boy I put up a Fight

She said, Son, one day

You’ll thank me

For having God in your Life

And yeah I know she was Right

Yeah my mama was Right

[Chorus]

Cause now I’m Talking to Jesus

She got me Talking to Jesus

She got me Talking to Jesus

Yeah my mama was Right

Cause now I’m Talking to Jesus

Yeah I Love Talking to Jesus

And I’ll be Talking to Jesus

For the rest of my Life

[Bridge]

What a Friend we have in Jesus

What a Friend

We have in Jesus

What a Friend we have in Jesus

Oh, oh, oh, ooh  [x2]

[Verse 3]

I’ve got 3 of my own now

Trying to Raise them up Right

My oldest is 15 and

I Remember what that was like

Trying to deal with the Drama,

Trying to figure out

The questions in Life

I’ve been looking for a way

To show him how to make it Alright


Then he walked in my Room

While I was saying my Prayers

The other night

He said I’ll come back later,

I can tell you got a lot on your Mind

I said it’s not an Interruption,

You couldn’t have picked a better time

Cause I was just Talking to Jesus,

Come over and give it a try

[Chorus]

We started Talking to Jesus

We started Talking to Jesus

We started Talking to Jesus

Oh, oh, oh, ooh

And now he’s Talking to Jesus

Thank God he’s Talking to Jesus

I Hope he’s Talking to Jesus

For the rest of his Life

[Bridge]

What a Friend we have in Jesus

What a Friend

We have in Jesus

What a Friend we have in Jesus

Oh, oh, oh, ooh  [x2]

[Verse 4]

There’s no wrong way to do it

There’s no bad time to start

It don’t have to Sound Pretty

Just tell him what’s on your Heart

Cause it’s not a Religion

It’s more like a Friendship

Just talk to your Father

Like you are his Kid

[Chorus]

Just start Talking to Jesus

Just start Talking to Jesus

You can Talk to Jesus

Whenever you like


Just start Talking to Jesus

Just start Talking to Jesus

Just keep Talking to Jesus

For the rest of your Life

[Bridge]

What a Friend we have in Jesus

What a Friend

We have in Jesus

What a Friend we have in Jesus

Oh, oh, oh, ooh  [x2]


Ooh, ooh, Ooh, ooh, Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, Ooh, ooh, Ooh, ooh

Oh, oh, oh, ooh

[Bridge]

What a Friend we have in Jesus

What a Friend

We have in Jesus

What a Friend we have in Jesus

Oh, oh, oh, ooh  [x2]

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."  Psalm 27

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers

Ideas for Sunday School Teachers: 1.  Write a note to each student and mail it to their home. 2.  Visit the child in his home and bring a small treat. 3.  Make a special treat once a month for your students on Sunday. 4.  Have a Sunday School class activity on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. 5.  Pray for your students. 6.  Have a monthly or quarterly contest for your students.  Include bringing their Bible, saying memory verses, attendance, etc.  Award small prizes. 7.  Have a special craft once a month. 8.  Rev up your teaching time!  Use props such as costumes, pictures, videos.  Make your lesson time come alive.  Teach your lesson 2-3 times during the week out loud – you will be amazed at how you will be able to teach it to your students – not just following the words in the book. 9.  After the lesson, be creative!  Students should not just be sitting and waiting for Sunday School hour to end.  You have 45 minutes each week to impact that little life.  Make e
