This week, I prayed, one time
My phone, it rang, I put You on the other line
And now my thoughts they drift around
My knees remain unacquainted with the ground
Unless my faith is put to the test and I am forced to bow
Although I'm in this flesh it doesn't mean You shouldn't have the best
from me, from me
Even when my eyes are dry
even when my soul is tired
even when my hands are heavy, I will lift them up to You
It's not about how I feel, oh Lord I am here for You
I exist for you
this week i had the most amazing worship experience of my life
hurting feet
aching legs
sore throat
and tired arms
mean nothing to you when all you want to do is worship more
each night i worshipped at the top of my lungs and each night i thought to myself, "will I have my voice tomorrow?"
but then i thought again and decided, "it doesn't matter, i will worship my lord any way i can"
hurting feet from standing in awe dont matter
aching legs from jumping and rejoicing dont matter
my sore throat doesnt matter
feeling gravitiy tug on my arms as they grew tired from lifting them up to my father in heaven doesnt matter
i will never run out as long as God gives me strength
I LOVE MY LORD
and he loves me too
soo basically, CHIC was absolutely AMAZING.
white water rafting
swimming
inflatable slip n slide
bowling
Moe's
Cheerwine
worship, obviously
Hawk Nelson and Falling Up
got Hawk Nelson's autograph
pool
focus sessions
small groups
it was all so amazingly wonderful
it was just what ive needed
for a couple of months, id been thinking, where do i belong? i dont fit in anymore. who do i have to turn to as my best friend?
but, even tho it didnt come until we were on the bus on our way to the airport, i realized that, just as ive been told....earth is simply my temporary home, its not where i belong. and what better friend do i have than one that gave up his life to save me from hopeless eternity to spend forever in paradise with him
Jesus is the best friend I have and he's all I need to get through this life
