It has been an incredible summer, probably one of my best--Jersey and NYC, visiting Greenville, good times working at Starbucks, SharpTop Cove, beach trips with the family, hanging out with great friends, disc golf, movie nights, ice cream, watermelon, Carowinds…all sorts of wonderful things. I don’t understand why, but my life continues to blossom as the years go by.
The past few weeks have been an insane way to end my summer when all I truly desire is solitude and time for myself, but I’ve been productive and had a blast despite my busy schedule. Last Tuesday I made a quick trip to
Today felt wonderful outside, despite the drizzle. It was also the first morning I had to myself with no agenda outside of work, traveling, and PT in a while. I had a lovely breakfast with my best friend, which is one of my favorite things in the world. Then I went for a great run with my dad and had some time to clear my mind. This amazing song came on my iPod, one of my favorites. This song so very clearly states the nature of my heart at the moment, so here I will share, since Shawn MacDonald does a pretty accurate job of explaining the desire thriving in my soul…
Take My Hand
Shawn MacDonald
Take my hand to the promise land
And on You I want to stand
Cause I cannot do it on my own
You're what I need and I need to be
Right by Your side cause I cannot hide
Lord, I know that I need You
Without You I'm so alone
I am weak but You are strong
You pick me up when I'm falling down
And I am crying
Out to You inside of my heart
I need You, Lord, oh so, for the part
I want You to have my life, Jesus
I fall to my knees
And I'm begging You, please, oh, Lord
Won't You change me
Make me new from the inside out
I want to shout out Your name
Amen.
