“Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders; let me walk upon the waters – wherever You would call me. Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander, and my faith will be made stronger in the presence of my Savior.”
I heard these words. And I was overcome.
It was the morning of my baptism, a little over three weeks ago, and I just happened to pick this song on the Spotify I had just downloaded and thought I would “give it a try.”
I knew the lyrics and I love them. I thought they resonated well within me.
“Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders”
Ok, that made sense. I’m going to be leaving home in four months and will be traveling Latin America for eleven. I’m going to need to have trust that will come with me. Not the trust in the safety of my own hometown and local safety net. Life will be so different and I know what will bring me through is my Trust in the Lord.
“Wherever You would call me”
Sure, I can go on this World Race, Lord, and then wherever else you need me to go. I will go.
How literal of an interpretation this was. How limited of an understanding this was.
That morning, I heard these words and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I practically collapsed in the shower and began to sob. My heart ached and I couldn’t quite figure out why. The words raced in my mind, and other words joined the jumble.
“Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander”
Then I heard an “Ok.” Almost like “Your wish is My command.”
