Abide (song series)


                            Come to Me, 
          all who are weary and heavy-laden
                       and I will give you rest. 
Matthew 11:28


What does it mean to abide...to draw near…to live inseparable from someone or something?  I have found that just relying on God and resting in His perfect arms I am able to make it through whatever life throws at me.  I cannot do it alone.  I must abide in Him and He in me to survive.  I couldn’t fathom it any other way.  I pray that if any of you are in a state of brokenness or hopelessness, you will abide in the Father. He has the answers and holds our future.  He is our strength and joy and our comfort in times of trouble and in times of rest.

Abide in me, and I in you. 

As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 
                I am the vine; you are the branches.       Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for          
                 
 apart from Me you can do nothing.

 If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. 

If you abide in me, and  my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 

By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. 
Abide in my love
If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his love

These things I have spoken to you, 
that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full
John 15:4-11

Abide
Becki J. Buescher


Be still broken one
For your comfort has come
Just rest here a while
The rain will soon be gone

This will pass, I know
The sun will shine
Hold me close until
The light reaches my eyes

Abide (x3)

For all that is true
Is found in You
All that I need
In You I see


Come weak and heavy laden
I will give you rest (2x)
