Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)

I just have to share this song.
It's such a blessing to me.
And has become the prayer of my heart.

I've struggled with a battle of fear (among other battles) throughout my life.
If it weren't for God the enemy would have won by now.
[I know I'm not alone in this struggle either]

This song speaks volumes of my desire to keep fighting and allowing God to be the victor in my life.
Throughout this lifetime I want to walk upon the waters.
To me that means doing the miraculous wherever God leads me.
Allowing His power to rule and win in my life and in the lives of those around me.

I could go on about what this song says to me.
For now I leave it with you in hopes that it becomes your prayer too. 

Dependence

I titled this post "Dependence," because the more I read the Bible the more I realize how much my dependence needs to be on God. Also, the more I read and fellowship with Him I realize how unworthy I am to be used by Him. I've been struggling these past fews days feeling guilty for not measuring up to the Love God has for me. I'm fighting a battle of guilt that comes when you realize how badly you NEED Him. I know I shouldn't feel guilty, because Jesus paid it all...so I'm trying. I press on in hopes of believing and living out the truth. I'm surrendering these feelings, and this helplessness to Him. 

The following came to mind last night while I was wrestling with this tension. 

He encamps my heart.
     He calls me to a mission of obedience,
        to a surrender of love,

          and to a commitment of faith.
