New Beginnings
I Woke up this morning
With this feeling inside me that I can’t explain
like a weight that I’ve carried
Been carried away, away
I stepped out of my house this morning and change was in the air. It felt like Fall, which I always celebrate with a Chai Creme Frappucino from Starbucks. More than that, though, there was an air of expectancy as I made my way to work. I’m not sure what it is or what’s going to happen, but I know that changes are underfoot. God has been preparing me the last few months for something. It’s been a valley, but I’ve been fighting my way up the side of the mountain and I’m close to being able to see the vista set out before me. I’m near the top, but when I get there, something will be different.
It’s impossible to know what’s around the next bend in the road or the next rise of the hill, but I am confident that God is walking beside me, beside us as we enter new phases of our lives. Like Jacob in the Old Testament, I have made poor choices and been angry at God and lived a life that falls so far short of the mark that it’s laughable. Yet time and again, God has welcomed me to His throne of Grace with open arms, no questions asked, no accusations thrown in my face. He is faithful even when we aren’t. He loves us with an unimaginable, unfailing love.
But I know something is coming
I don’t know what it is
But I know it’s amazing, you save me
My time is coming
And I’ll find my way out of this longest drought…
This is so random, but I am almost in tears as I write this. I cannot begin to share how blessed I am! The Creator and Sustainer of the Universe LOVES ME! He loves me and He chose me and He is readying something remarkable for me.
I wish you the joy that I have in my heart at this very moment. It is absolutely breathtaking.
It’s the one thing that’s missin’
The one thing you’re wishin’
Life’s sacred blessin’ and then,
It feels like today
Feels like, feels like your life changes
Feels like, feels like your life changes
