Jesus

There's a love forgetting my failures

There's a joy that's setting me free

There's a light defeating my darkness

And there's redemption calling, causing all to sing!

This morning I woke up with the Lord on my side. This gave me joy. And strength to make it through the day. It's been a long day, full of rehearsal, services, lessons from Steve, computer work, and a simple, very enjoyable conversation with a dear friend of mine. Tonight, I'll be singing a song (that's a little too high!) called "Alabaster Jar". The bridge makes the song. "Worthy, Worthy, you are worthy. Worthy is the Lord. Worthy, Worthy, You are worthy, worthy is the Lord!" It repeats this, heavy drums, strong electric, and lots of voices. It's so powerful, because to me, and maybe to others, it seems to put me right back in my spot, realizing how worthy and powerful my God is, and all that He is capable of. My life can be taken away any second, and only God knows how long I will live on this earth. When I sing those words, and as I ponder on them right now, I honestly don't care too worry about how long my life is, but instead what I do for Him and how I lift Him up in the time I have. It's been a positive day. I haven't had one of these all week. Well, wait, I take that back. I've had positive moments, but every night has been sad, because I'm human and have not fully surrendered my feelings and emotions to God. I'm getting closer to this, and am anticipating a good evening at home, with my two dogs. Maybe I'll watch a movie, or take some pictures while I drink egg nog, or maybe I'll email my mom. Who knows. All I know is that I'm walking through today with Jesus, and my eyes tear when I think of this. I'm overwhelmed knowing that I am not alone. He's sitting next to me, He is going to stand by me while I sing and receive my song of praise, and He's going to come home with me and spend the evening in my house. <3
