Forgive Me…

ByTim Nolte
I wrote this some time ago. I can’t find my recording of it so looks like I may be re-recording it.

Forgive Me
Words & Music by Timothy J Nolte

V1:
Oh Lord, I had walked with You.
You guided me, You led my feet.
I let go of Your guiding hand,
And slowly drifted away.

Chorus:
Oh Lord, please forgive me.
Oh Lord, I need You in my life.
Oh Lord, please forgive me.
Oh Lord, I give to You my life.

V2:
Oh Lord, I saw Your servant work,
Your wondrous power, Your healing words.
I felt Your calling in my heart,
And I yearned to serve.

V3:
I come to You a broken man,
I fall before Your Holy throne.
In Your light I see my sinfulness,
My unworthiness to come to You.

V4:
I thank You for the saving grace,
You gave to us through Your Son.
I ask now for Your forgiveness,
To walk with You once again.

    What Has Today Brought?

    ByTim Nolte
    I’d haveto say that all-in-all it was a decent day. I would have preferred to get a bit farther along in my data-entry, I spent a good portion of the day generating mailing lists. I would have to say that about the best parts of today were getting up early and having some good devotion time and breakfast before I headed off to work. I think both of those things have proven to make my mornings more productive. This evening wasn’t too bad. I didn’t get quite as much accomplished tonight as I had hoped but I did manage to have a rather tasty steak and potato supper, I also began creating an actual budget I hope to be sticking by. This was a huge…

    Devotions for Sacred Parenting #25: Stop Judging and Start Loving

    ByTim Nolte
    “The sinful, selfish side of us truly wants and sometimes even expects a “perfect” child, but God doesn’t grant us “perfect” children in this fallen world—and even if he did, we imperfect parents would soon mess them up.” – Devotions for Sacred Parenting by Gary L. Thomas I’m pretty sure I’m not alone with finding myself in a situation with my kids where I’ve thought to myself “why can’t my kids just behave? What’s wrong with them?”. The second question is normally followed up with the fact that my daughter is special needs, and that’s the “problem”. However, as I continue to learn God is in the business of changing lives, and he’s sure working to change me. Every day I see areas that I…

    Working From Rest, Productivity At It’s Best

    ByTim Nolte
    “Man’s blessing didn’t come from what he produced, rather, what he produced stemmed from his blessing. Let that blessing fuel your work, so that striving ceases and what you produce comes out of a place of rest.” – SELAH | Defining Rest In The Age Of Productivity The start of this study reminded me of the Life Shapes, specifically the Semi-Circle. There has been a lot of proof that in order to perform at our best we need adequate rest. What that rest looks like can be different for everyone. We are all charged back up in different ways depending on our personalities. Nonetheless, we all need to be charged up to tackle what’s before us. Even as a runner, I’ve seen first hand what…

  • Where Have All The Posts Gone?

    ByTim Nolte
    So it would seem that I really lost touch with my blog. I wouldn’t be surprised if no reads the thing anymore, although I do know that some have you have bugged me about it. So what’s my excuse? Life. Yeah, I know that’s a poor excuse but I’ve been bust working away trying to do what I need to do if this move is going to happen. Don’t misunderstand me here…my desire is that God be in total control of all the details, but I am responsible for looking for a job, and doing my part for the sale of my house. Well, here’s a brief recap of the past couple of weeks. Over Memorial weekend I headed down to Le Sueur for my…

  • Moved In And Lovin’ It

    ByTim Nolte
    Well folks (readers/freinds) I’m am now know as a Michigander (as Vanessa would call it). I haven’t gotten a new drivers license or license plates on the car but I really do feel at home at the moment. I still need to get myself familiar with the area but I’ve got a map (thx Nessa!) and I’m pretty confident I’ll figure it out in no time. The move went pretty well, all except the long drive, and little sleep, between Thursday & Friday. Thanks to those of you that helped with all the packing and loading. Actually on Friday, on the way through Wisconsin, we got stuck for an hour on the Interstate, as a trucking hauling scrap metal dumped it’s load all over the…
