In the Quiet

I want to meet You in the quiet 

Quiet my mind
Past mistakes 
Wrong decisions
Keep me awake at night

Quiet my heart
Seeking the wrong things
Loving ones not for me
Breaking...
Wounding...

Quiet my mind with Your Word
Quiet my heart with Your Love

Meet You in the quiet
The stillness

Sing over me
Words that heal
I'll listen for Your voice

In the quiet

I'm Yours

Psalm 31:5
Into Your hand I entrust my spirit;
You redeem me, Lord, God of truth.


Prayer prayed

On the cross
At a stoning
In a quiet room

Surrender of a life back to its Creator

Surrender...

Giving up control
So hard
Gotta make it work
It's all on me
If I let go...what will happen?

Peace, be still
He calmed my storms
Walking on water instead of sinking
Eyes on Him

I entrust my life to You
I entrust my heart to You
I entrust my entire being to You

I'm Yours

Paths

Winding roads
Different paths 

Change of direction 

I didn't mean to go this way
Somehow it led me to where I needed to be

Walked a hard road

Heartache
Pain 
Grief

Only lasts for a season

Joy
Peace 
Love

Paths change
Hard for a time, then joy

Keep walking

Thirst

Thirst so deep
Water cannot quench

Thirst so deep
Human love cannot satisfy

Thirst so deep
Brings sorrow to the bones

Thirst so deep

Only One 
Living water

Flood through me
Quench my thirst
Satisfy my longings 
Joy so abundant

Thirst so deep
Only Jesus

A touch of faith

The tassel on His robe 
The hem of His garment

Just a touch to be made whole

Reaching out
Taking that step

A little show of faith
That's all Christ needs

A touch is all it takes
Healing can come 

Matthew 14:36
Mark 5:28

The Beauty in letting go

There's such a beauty in letting go

We want to control
We want to see all the steps
We want to depend on ourselves 

But we can't 

Sometime we allow the chaos
Sometimes it just barges in

Chaos - complete disorder and confusion
A mess

Let go and let God

Let go and let God bring order
Let go and let God bring understanding
Let go and let God bring a beauty to your life

I have found such a beauty in letting go
I see it
I feel it

Such a peace
A joy in just being free

Wait...Trust...Rest

Wait
Trust
Rest

I'm impatient!!
Ready!!
Let's go!!

Enough time wasted
Doing my thing
Ignoring
Turned away from You

I'm ready, God!
Do Your thing!

Wait...
He's working

Trust
He's working

Rest
He's working
