These past couple of weeks I feel I have been running on "E." I am just dragging not only physically but spiritually. I feel I have been beaten down.
I pray what this song shares for myself and any out there who are experiencing the same.
Why am I such a dusty window
For your light to shine through?
Why am I just a tiny star
In a sky already blue?
Why do I offer everything
With my heart closed like a fist?
I want to love You better than this
Why do I live like I'm in chains
When You have set me free?
And why do I have to break Your heart
Before I fall to my knees?
I know it's time to pray for change
Give all I have to give
I want to love You better than this
So renew me
Remake me
Undo me
Unbreak me
Come into the empty spaces
Of my broken places
And consume me
Complete me
Pursue me
Redeem me
Let Your Holy Spirit living through me
Renew me
I need Your power to renew me, Lord, yeah
I need to know You're moving through me, Lord
I need You as my refuge
My first and last resort
Be the river always running
Through my deepest thoughts
Keep me in Your arms
'Cause even when I drift
I want to love You better than this
So renew me
Remake me
Undo me
Unbreak me
Come into the empty spaces
Of my broken places
And consume me
Complete me
Pursue me
Redeem me
Let Your Holy Spirit living through me
Renew me
My life bending to Your will
Seeking You until I'm more and more like You
Dear One, keeping you in my thoughts. I know there are times like that and it isnt easy to keep going. Love to you

ReplyDeleteJBR you've been through alot of physical trama lately. I pray that our Lord gives you the strength both spiritually and physically to do the work he's called you to do. God Bless.
ReplyDeletei know the feeling...as you saw at my place..my world got rocked a bit by the passing of friends...its been hard to find the words for a couple days...
ReplyDeleteCan you take some time and just be with God?

I hate it when I feel like I'm running on fumes. Don't give up. Just rest in God's love and you'll float out of this dry place soon enough.

ReplyDeleteMay God just cover you with His love. That you for sharing such a beautiful song. I too have been running on empty, but I know we are not alone.((((JBR))))
ReplyDeleteHi my sister in Christ,
ReplyDeleteIt is so hard when God seems so far away. I know people say that it us that moved away and not Him. But when we are running on empty and have no motativtion to come to Our Lord, we don't know how to move back. My sister, just surrender. God doesn't help those who can help themselves. That's was no where in the bible. That was a saying in the farmer's almanac maybe only a hundred years ago that caught on. God came to save the sinner, those who can't help themselves. My prayer for you is to just step back and be, let God do the rest.
Love your sister,
Amanda
