Winter has come back again Feels like the season won’t end My faith is dying tonight And I won’t try to pretend I’ve got it all figured out I don’t have any doubts I’ve got a busted heart I need You now Yeah, I need You now (Chorus) Hold on to me, hold on to me Don’t let me lose my way Hold on to me I am the wandering son Your love is never enough I keep chasing the wind Instead of chasing Your love I’m screaming out Your name Don’t let me fall on my face I’ve got a busted heart I’m in need of a change I’m desperate for grace Hold on to me, take all of me Don’t let me lose my way Hold on to me Broke Your heart a thousand times But You’ve never left my side You have always been here for me You never let me go You never let me go Don’t ever let me go Hold on to me, hold on to me Don’t let me lose my way Hold on to me Hold on to me, take all of me Don’t let me lose my way Hold on to me Until it comes to an end Soon this season will end I’ll surrender tonight You meet me right where I am. -Hold On by King and Country.
If His grace is an ocean than we’re all sinking! How He loves us.
It is our Father’s grace which sustains us. It is His grace that produces in us the Fruit of the Spirit to be evident so that Christ is on display in our lives. We will never be enough. His grace is. Jesus Christ is enough!
We’ve heard studies about people on Facebook after x amount of years experience a level of depression, as a result of reading the glamorous things others share about their lives. First of all, Facebook is surface. It isn’t the place to share drama. The majority of people post wonderful things.. Everybody has got the friend that focuses on the negative.. Yea, that’s no good. Don’t be fooled. Your identity is not in a silly social media site. Don’t forget that anyone can be whoever they want behind a computer. Nobody has got it altogether. Nobody! Real life happens in real relationships.
I love to blog, to share, to post, to socialize. I noticed today… Well, let me just say, that I felt very led to share with you that it’s not always a grand ol’ party with candy, balloons and laughter. I am the least of these. I am my own worst enemy. I do things I don’t want to do. I struggle, fall, drop,to my knees and sometimes let those broken tears run down until there is no more left. I desire for my flesh to die. Paul said to die is to gain. Putting something to death is extreme. It’s intense and it’s painful. Those moments…. In the ashes… I pray that the flames burn away the things that are of me, and not of Him. Empty me! Fill me with You!! Painfully beautiful. That’s what we call it. The necessary brokenness that strengthens our faith. We are filled, to be emptied again.
I don’t want easy. I desire, regardless the pain, to be continually transformed. Pleasing to my Lord.
We desire to reach our fullest potential in Christ. That can only be attained by surrendering all to His guidance and not giving up. In my weakness, His strength is revealed! Praise the Lord!
I want you to know, that we are so thankful for our relationship with you!!!
It is in these relationships that we are able to see more clear. 1 Corinthians 13:12-13.
Grateful for His grace and with so much love,
~Amanda
