(A quick journal entry from yesterday and then a piece of my heart on video… which may or may not be a bust. but were trying it and seein what happens!)
This is a song by Aaron Strumpel, the lyrics rocked my world!:
“My eyes are so blue I feel like I could look right through and see the stars and the moon.
Take flight and I stare from who knows where and I know you’ve been thinking of me
With wonder and fear You knit me together, You shoulda been scared when You breathed into me
I have a feeling You knew what I’d say and what I’d do… but Your love said do it anyway
Love love love
Search me oh God and know I’m nervous.
Test me father I know I’m not perfect
Change me oh God with your mercy”
Take flight and I stare from who knows where and I know you’ve been thinking of me
With wonder and fear You knit me together, You shoulda been scared when You breathed into me
I have a feeling You knew what I’d say and what I’d do… but Your love said do it anyway
Love love love
Search me oh God and know I’m nervous.
Test me father I know I’m not perfect
Change me oh God with your mercy”
But Your love said do it anyway…
You knew who I’d be, you knew how much I’d screw it up. You knew most days I wouldn’t do your gospel justice. You knew most days Id be selfish and self serving but your love breathed life into me anyways. Your love offered me a life anyways in hope that, more often than not, Id choose You. Id choose love.
“With Wonder and Fear you knit me together…
Search me oh God and know I’m nervous.
Test me Father, I know I’m not perfect.
Change me oh God with Your mercy.”
Search me oh God and know I’m nervous.
Test me Father, I know I’m not perfect.
Change me oh God with Your mercy.”
I trust that I was knit together by a Creator with intention, purpose and love. As I stumble through life, picking up truth and learning form my mistakes I ask my Daddy to test my heart. To search my ways and rid me of anything that doesn’t glorify Him. To change me, in His mercy, to be a greater light and example of Him to a broken world. I am trying to get out of the way so He can come in and bring Kingdom through the life He breathed into me and trusted me with.
That is who I want to be.
And now onto the feature presentation 🙂
