This past week our pastor said there were two words that could never be spoken together. He read from Acts 10 regarding Peter's rebuttal of the Lord's command to eat "unclean" food. How often I have said those words "No Lord" (or "Never, Lord" or "Not So, Lord"). He pointed out that we can say "Why Lord", "How Lord" or best yet, "Help Me, Lord" but two words that cannot be spoken together -
NO
LORD
We either say No or we say LORD. Period. (Ouch!)

Only One Life
"Only one life,
'twill soon be past,
Only what's done
for Christ will last."
Oh, Master help me
be wholly Thine,
Only a branch
to Your Holy Vine.
Help me, O Christ
as I work for You,
Only your Glory
in all that I do.
Each waking thought,
each action and deed,
Only Your will,
wherever You lead.
If this is the day
that is all that is left,
Only Your praise
be my final breath.
Refiners fire
cannot be tamed
Only true gold
withstands the flame.
"Only one life,
'twill soon be past,
Only what's done
for Christ will last."
'twill soon be past,
Only what's done
for Christ will last."
Oh, Master help me
be wholly Thine,
Only a branch
to Your Holy Vine.
Help me, O Christ
as I work for You,
Only your Glory
in all that I do.
Each waking thought,
each action and deed,
Only Your will,
wherever You lead.
If this is the day
that is all that is left,
Only Your praise
be my final breath.
Refiners fire
cannot be tamed
Only true gold
withstands the flame.
"Only one life,
'twill soon be past,
Only what's done
for Christ will last."

HE
HE cannot be described,
but HE can be shared.
HE cannot be understood,
but HE can be felt.
HE cannot be seen,
but HE can be followed.
HIS Love cannot be duplicated,
but It can be our example.
HIS Mercy cannot be measured,
but It can be accepted.
HIS Wisdom cannot be contained,
but It can be gathered.
His Grace cannot be ended,
but It can give us eternity.
