The other day at school, it was clear, windy and crisp/cool. In addition to that, I shared some encouraging words with my brother, sang some praise songs in the little piano practice rooms at school and I felt the Spirit just seep into my soul. THe world is such a wicked place...I am continuously bombarded by evil every day at work and school...and to have such a sweet place in my heart where God was holding me close, lifting me above the muck of this place was truly amazing.
I am learning to let God have all these parts of me. the parts that stress, get angry, lose heart and despair. I am continually reminded that He is here for me. But he needs my attention...my praise
Reminds me of lyrics by Keith Green:
My son, my son, why are you striving
You can't add one thing to what's been done for you
I did it all while I was dying
rest in your faith, My peace will come to you.
For when I hear the praises start
I want to rain upon you blessings that will fill your heart
I see no stain upon you
because you are my child, and you know me
to Me you're only holy...
nothing that you've done remains...only what you do with Me!
My child, my child why are you weeping
you will not have to wait forever
that day and that hour is in my keeping
the day i'll bring you into heaven
Chorus.
My precious bride, the day is nearing
when I'll take you in my arms and hold you
I know theres so many things that you've been hearing
But you just hold on to what I've told you!!!
You can't add one thing to what's been done for you
I did it all while I was dying
rest in your faith, My peace will come to you.
For when I hear the praises start
I want to rain upon you blessings that will fill your heart
I see no stain upon you
because you are my child, and you know me
to Me you're only holy...
nothing that you've done remains...only what you do with Me!
My child, my child why are you weeping
you will not have to wait forever
that day and that hour is in my keeping
the day i'll bring you into heaven
Chorus.
My precious bride, the day is nearing
when I'll take you in my arms and hold you
I know theres so many things that you've been hearing
But you just hold on to what I've told you!!!
OH to trust him THIS much!!!

Aww you posted. I like it when you do. It's a way for me to stay in touch with you, and know what's going on. Granted, it IS what you choose to share with the world, and not just to me, but I still like it. I'm really excited to see you TOMORROW!!!! I miss you :) I know you'll have tons and tons of midwest friends to be with... but I might kidnap you for twenty minutes. :) Love you!
"nothing that you've done remains...only what you do with Me"
that is amazing! The only thing that he's been after this whole time is our time. It feels like the only brokenness in our lives is what we hold onto. Because I don't think he's even interested in anything other than being our companion. Thanks for that.
