It's 2010. Unbelievable. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
It's been a decade since we went to bed on New Year's Eve wondering what havoc Y2K would wreak overnight. We survived that just fine, but a whole slew of other disasters have come our way over the past ten years. I don't know about you, but I'm sure glad I can hold onto God in the midst of life's storms.
Speaking of disasters and storms, I'm currently reading Randy Alcorn's If God is Good: Faith in the Midst of Suffering and Evil. This should be required reading for all professing Christians.
As I shared in Monday's blog post, my word from the Lord for this year is "Come Away." One of the ways I "come away" is with music. I have a playlist in iTunes called Quiet Time Music. These are "gentle" worship songs that help me quiet my thoughts and enter into His presence. One of the songs in that playlist is "Word of God Speak" sung by Kristin Chenoweth (you can find other artists who have performed the same song, but I absolutely love Chenoweth's version). Here are the lyrics:
WORD OF GOD SPEAK
I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is, it's okay
The last thing I need is to be heard
But to hear what You would say
Would You pour down like rain?
Washing my eyes to see Your majesty
To be still and know You're in this place
Please let me stay and rest in Your holiness
Word of God, speak
I'm finding myself in the midst of You
Beyond the music, beyond the noise
All that I need is to be with You
And in the quiet, hear Your voice
Word of God, speak
Would You pour down like rain?
Washing my eyes to see Your majesty
To be still and know You're in this place
Please let me stay and rest in Your holiness
Word of God, speak
Would You pour down like rain?
Washing my eyes to see Your majesty
To be still and know that You're in this place
Please let me stay and rest in Your holiness
Word of God, speak
I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is, it's okay
And now I'm at a loss for words.
