I know I should be writing about a lot of things right now and I promise that I will do that. And it will be soon, but I was listening to some music while doing my devos and and song from Mercyme popped up. It fits in so well with what is going on with my life at this moment. The stuff in the brackets are me explaining things not the actual lyrics.
I Would Die For You- Mercyme
And I know that I can find You here
‘Cause You promised me You’ll always be there
Times like these, it’s hard to see
But somehow I have a peace… You’re near
�
[[I can’t even begin to describe the feeling of Joy and Peace that I still have from finding out what God is planning in my life. He is so incredibly near right now and it is a wonderful feeling!]]
And I pray that You will use my life
In whatever way Your name is glorified
Even if surrendering
Means leaving everything… behind
[[He answered my prayer to break my heart to be his hands and feet, and so I am surrendering. I am leaving everything, except for what I can fit into a hiking backpack, behind. I am so excited and nervous to be doing the World Race!]]
My life has never been this clear
Now I know the reason why I’m here
You never know why You’re alive
Until you know what you would die for
I would die for You
[[Answered prayers, the World Race, Graduation, working another summer at Camp Geneva, the amazing people I call friends and family…its all so clear. Looking back I can see how things I went through that I never thought I would make it out of have helped to prepare me is incredible. Something only God can do! I would die for him because he died for me. I could live a life where I am surrounded by trials and hard times, but serve him and see the joy and hope that people have who know him, or party it up with Jesus upstairs….it’s really a win win either way]]
And I know I don’t have much to give
But I promise You I will give You all there is
Can I possibly do less
When through Your own death… I live
[[I will give my everything for him because he gave his life for me, it’s the very least I can do]]
My life has never been this clear
Now I know the reason why I’m here
You never know why You’re alive
Until you know what you would die for
I would die for You
No greater love is found
Than of those who lay their own lives down
As sure as I live and breathe
Now i know what it means to be free
[[I am loved.]]
My life has never been this clear
Now I know the reason why I’m here
You never know why You’re alive
Until you know what you would die for
I would die for You
