Reclaiming Wonder

                                                  What beauty do you marvel at? 


                           "Worship the Lord your God and serve him ONLY." Luke 4:8 


    We were asked to write a psalm of our own and I wanted to share mine with all of you ...


Praise the Lord ...


for making me ME. For loving me unconditionally. For always being here for me and continuing to stick around even when I hurt you and lose my way.


Praise the Lord ... 


because you brought me to my friends. They are priceless gifts and each teach me and show me more of you and your love. You are brilliant and I am in awe of your presence. I surrender to you Father.


I will remember always ...


that you are in control and you desire to give me the desires of my heart. You are merciful and forgiving, loving and true. You desire to have my whole reverence and not half my heart. You desire me. I yearn to desire all of you. 


When will I get that YOU are enough? 




By your side; Tenth Avenue North 




Why are you striving these days
Why are you trying to earn grace
Why are you crying
Let me lift up your face
Just don't turn away

Why are you looking for love
Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell me where will you run
To where will you run

And I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Look at these hands and my side
They swallowed the grave on that night
When I drank the world's sin
So I could carry you in
And give you life
I want to give you life

(Chorus 2x)

Cause I, I love you
I want you to know
That I, I love you
I'll never let you go

(Chorus 2x)
