My Desire

We are struggling. I am struggling. With bills, with not being able to find a job, with no privacy, with no home. With letting God take control. I am scared we've dug ourselves this huge hole and can't find our way out. Every time we turn around something new pops up. A new bill, a new problem. I know my Lord can bring me through anything... so why is it so hard to let go and let HIM? I can't take this anymore! I need to find peace.

So I got into the car this morning and this song came on. One of my favorites.... but you know how you listen to music all the time and sometimes just don't "hear" the lyrics. Well I HEARD them this morning.

My Desire

Jeremy Camp
You want to be real, you want to be empty inside

You want to be someone laying down your pride

You want to be someone someday

Then lay it all down before the king

You want to be whole, you want to have purpose inside

You want to have virtue and purify your mind

You want to be set free today

Then lay it all down before the King

This is my desire, this is my return

This is my desire to be used by You

You want to be real, you want to be empty inside

And I know my heart is to feel

You near

And I know my life

It's to do Your will

It's to do Your will

This is my desire, this is my return

This is my desire, to be used by You

Oo yea

This is my desire, this is my desire

To be used by You

All my life I have seen

Where You've taken me

Beyond all I have hoped

And there's more left unseen

There's not much I can do to repay all You've done

So I give my hands to use

This is my desire, this is my return

This is my desire, to be used by You

Oo yea

This is my desire, this is my desire

To be used by You

I WANT to lay down my pride and lay it down before HIM.
