Dwelling: 13

There is power, power, 
wonder working power, 
in the precious blood of the Lamb!
She sings, loudly.
[Don't mind me, just gettin' my worship on...]

[dwell, verb: to remain for a time; to keep the attention directed; to linger over, emphasize, or ponder in thought]

This I promise to remember:
Alone is nice, but never better.

If you cannot hear me, I will gladly shout:
I believe the promises of the Lord,
And in them I shall stand.

Dwelling: 10

When all I can say is please,
when all I need is help,
I lift my eyes and remember:

My help cometh from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
In trust, He will indeed make all things new;
His garden He will grow.

[dwell, verb: to remain for a time; to keep the attention directed; to linger over, emphasize, or ponder in thought]

Dwelling: 9

When fear-slash-failure-slash-fear-of-failure swirls,
I remember:

You cannot serve two masters.

"For I am the Lord your God, 
who takes hold of your right hand and says to you
Do not fear; I will help you."
[Isaiah 41:13]

[dwell, verb: to remain for a time; to keep the attention directed; to linger over, emphasize, or ponder in thought]

Today--in the midst of every old/new thing--
I hear, I sing; our Redemption Song.
"The day misspent,
the love misplaced,
has inside it the seed of redemption.
Nothing is exempt from resurrection."
[Kay Ryan, Say Uncle]

Dwelling: 7

Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

Set your mind, set your mind;
Set your eyes, Above.

[You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you,
all whose thoughts are fixed on you.
Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord,
 the Lord himself, is the Rock eternal.]

[dwell, verb: to remain for a time; to keep the attention directed; to linger over, emphasize, or ponder in thought]
