I am basking in this God that has been chasing after my heart this week. Last night I did some yard work and various (normal) weekend chores and it just felt good to be me. To emotionally recognize and embrace who I am (in Christ), that I am NEW (not just the old Amy trying harder).
I don’t know what it looks like. I don’t know if it’s a life long struggle or eventually achieved through His given desires but I long to completely surrender to God. To be this new creationg. I want Him to have all of me and I want it to have happened yesterday.
The words of the David Crowder song really touched my heart. I heard the tremendous love this Creator has for us and I am baffled by it. I love when connections are made…and my heart TRUSTS them. The song You're Everything says:
If I could see you want me
Could I believe?
If I could just feel your touch
Could I be free?
Why do you shine so? So the blind can see?
Can the deaf hear the voice of love?
Are you the one?
Blah, blah, blah….
You’re everything
I can just feel your touch
and I can't breathe
And how you shine so
the blind can see
and how you call out
you beckon me
the deaf hear the voice of love
you bid me come
and the cripple run
So raise me up
from this grave
you touch my tongue
and then I'll say:
Heal my limbs
and joyfully I'll run to you
I have grown to love David Crowder's music cause I often read his lyrics and relate to his questions, then I long for the answers he found or they validate my experience as well. I so often find myself blind and deaf to God but His glory shines bright enough for me to see it, His love is LOUD enough for my deaf ears to hear and His call is so strong how can I but RUN into his arms. All of these actions above and beyond the desires and ability of my flesh. It just validates that I am HIS creation for all He is draws me near to him.
