deep within my soul
You are rising up
overtaking
my life
what was was mine
what is is Yours
what’s to come
is up to me
deep within my soul
You are rising up
overtaking
my life
what was was mine
what is is Yours
what’s to come
is up to me
an army rising
the heavens moving
the rivers flowing
drowning death
marching
without sound
pursuing
without veering
flowing
without stopping
into a heart
heaven’s armies
join as one
to move in motion
to the one
who’s prayed for
without permission
without defeat
without a plan
of losing
everyone has a song
everyone has a sound
that heaven creates
through worship
sometimes when I dance
I remember how I used to dance
not as a stripper
but when I first started dancing
for Him
has it changed?
does it matter?
as I grow closer
if that’s even possible
will the movements change
or is my dance
my dance
in the arms of Him
Who twirls me in His Love
songs beg and plea
for Him to come near
I imagine Him singing
those words over us
For the most part, since the beginning of the year, only a handful of women have come to JC’s Girls (and not all at one time). There’ve been many times when no one’s showed up at all, and that’s okay.
The ministry wasn’t started for a group that already existed. No, the ministry was started for women to have a place to go for prayer support and for the teaching of freedom.
Last night, I didn’t expect anyone to show up but wanted to be there in case anyone did, and wouldn’t you know it…someone showed up. Continue reading
when I
hear Your Voice
it’s like heaven
when I
look inside
I see
when I
breathe You in
it’s apparent
Heaven’s inside of me
breathe in
look for
listen to
Heaven inside of me
You died
so I’d be free
You died
so I’d walk in victory
You died
so I’d live Your Truth
You died
so I’d see my worth Continue reading
A little while ago, I saw a post about writing a song from an unbeliever’s heart. Well, yesterday, while I was driving, God poured one out through me. I didn’t record it, and it had me in tears. I don’t think this is “exactly” it, but it’s pretty darn close.
This song starts in exhaustion, escalates to almost yelling, and ends in a crying whisper. It’s passionate. It’s from a desperate heart that’s been “searching” many places to find God but finally gives up, throws his hands in the air, falls to his knees and cries out for a true answer.
This song is a cry from that heart. Continue reading
