                It's Amazing What God Can Do
      verse:
    
      My soul was blowin' in the wind
      It didn't have a place to stay
      Livin' in a world of sin
      I couldn't seem to find my way
      You took my hand and said follow me
      Im the way that leads to God's throne
      You've changed my life and have taken away my HEART OF STONE........
    
      chorus:
    
      It's amazing what God can do
      Amazing the way he changes you
      It's amazing what God can do
      Amazing LOVE he's got for you
    
      verse:
    
      Jesus was just a name to me
      I wouldn't bow to him and pray
      The bible i didn't believe
      Was a story book fantasy
      Then one day i gave my heart to you
      And you filled it with something new
      Your holy spirit has revealed to me that JESUS IS TRUE..............
    
      chorus:
    
      It's amazing what God can dO    
      Amazing the way he change you
      It's amazing what God can do
      Amazing LOVE Jesus has for 
    
      bridge:
    
      Are you out there with no peace today?
      And you just dont know what to do
      Ask God to show you the way
      He'll give you a peace you never knew
    
      When your heart and his spirit meet
      And he pours out that blessing from above
      He's gonna sweep you right off your feet
      And carry you into his kingdom of LOVE..............

 Wonderful, Thomas!

    	It's also amazing what he doesn't do, or cannot do, or will
    not do.
    
    Thomas the doubter

    Hi Thomas,
    
     I have asked of the Lord many things, one of which is why He doesn't
    seem to be more involved, as in more divine intervention, in this world,
    that needs His will to be done. Firstly, there is nothing He cannot do,
    secondly, about 2,000 years ago, He said "It is finished", as in His
    work personally on earth, and thirdly, He gave the "great commision" to
    His followers. The body of Christ, the church, is responsible for much
    of what isn't being done. It is God's responsibility to see they are
    woken up to this reality. I believe He is going to pour out His Spirit
    in these last days, like never before. After all, He promised to do
    just that in Acts 2:17, "And in the last days, I will pour out of My
    Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy, and
    your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams."
    
    Hang in there, it's going to rain all over God's green earth.

    the song i wrote was an inspiration from when i accepted him 7 years ago.
    god's work isn't done, in the sense of he will pour out his spirit
     in the last days and he prepares a place for you, etc. and its not
    "where is the god of elijah?" more like "wheres the elijah's of god?" we
    ask god for him to move, when he is waiting for us to move. ray, what
    are you trying to say in 898.2?

    Hi Thomas (no doubt)
    
     Excellent gift you have there, and praise God He is helping you use
    that gift to reach others! IMHO, I hope it rocks the house down.
    
    Shalom
