Do you ever have days where you wake up and your mind just starts spinning??? Thinking about all the things that weigh your heart down?
Well I had one of those mornings this morning… But…….
You know how God likes to work in mysterious ways… Well I got on my face in worship of Him becuase my heart was hurting. Resting in His presence to steady my heart. The first song that came on was "Times" by Tenth Avenue North… The lyrics just ressonated in my heart:
I need to love You
I'd love to see You but it's been so long
I long to feel You
I feel this need for You
I need to hear You
Is that so wrong
Now You pull me near You
When we're close I fear You
Still I'm afraid to tell you all that I've done
Are You done forgiving
Or can You look past my pretending, Lord
I'm so tired of defending what I've become
What have I become
I hear You say
My love is over
It's underneath
It's inside
It's in between
The times that you doubt me
When you can't feel
The times that you question
Is this for real
The times you're broken
The times that you mend
The times you hate me
And the times that you bend
Well my love is over
It's underneath
It's inside
It's in between
The times that you're healing
And when your heart breaks
The times that you feel like you've fallen from grace
The times you're hurting
The times that you heal
The times you go hungry and are tempted to steal
In times of confusion
In chaos and pain
I'm there in your sorrow under the weight of your shame
I'm there through your heart-ache
I'm there in the storm
My love I will keep you by my power alone
I don't care where you've fallen or where you have been
I'll never forsake you
My love never ends
It never ends, mmmm"
When I stood up I had a fresh perspective to not let my brain focus on defeat and to run to Him, but my heart was still hurting…
Well I started to do some spring cleaning of my room, e-mail, etc. And that is where God met me.. Right on the computer…
I signed into gmail chat and within seconds I hear the sound of someone wanting to chat..
Who was it??
It was a blessing of an old friend 😉 wanting to catch up. Within a few minutes I have a huge smile across my face and I have completely forgotten what was heavy on my heart.
God works in mysterious ways.. And He is always suprising me with His love and care for even the little things…
"The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders; where morning dawns and evening fades, you call forth songs of joy." ~ Psalm 65:8
