My Church in Austin Texas is currently doing a series on worshiping, and I have felt led to worship with music and singing outside of Sunday Mornings, so I made a running play-list. As I was jogging, my alone time became of quiet time with Jesus as I hummed the tune I was making my prayer. I even occasionally raised my hands haha. Here are a few lyrics that have been powerful for me recently…
“In your ocean, I’m ankle deep
I feel the waves crashin’ on my feet
It’s like I know where I need to be
But I can’t figure out, yeah I can’t figure out
Just how much air I will need to breathe
When your tide rushes over me
There’s only one way to figure out
Will you let me drown, will you let me drown?
Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, ’cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I’m in reach
‘Cause I am down on my knees.
I’m waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful
And the water is rising quick
And for years I was scared of it
We can’t be sure when it will subside
So I won’t leave your side, no I can’t leave your side.
In a daydream, I couldn’t live like this.
I wouldn’t stop until I found something beautiful.
When I wake up, I know I will have
No, I still won’t have what I need.”
I love rocking out to this song in my car, but honestly it is sometimes how I feel about entering this trip, and not knowing “how much air I will need to breathe.” I am definitely being challenged in my Trust and Faith…areas that are not always tested because of my tight grip on control. Here’s to Spiritual maturity!
