I've been trying to sum up how I've been feeling lately regarding "coming home." I have so many emotions and thoughts and feeling swirling around in my head. I have about 9 posts started and saved that aren't finished because my brain is just one big jumbled mess. There has however been this song stuck in my head that seems to put it into words perfectly. When dh and I go to the LifeTeen Mass on Sunday's there is something they do that I really love. After communion is over they turn the lights down low and everyone kneels. Then we sing a song. They always choose such fitting songs. Below is the song we sang last Sunday. It is by far one of my favorites! I had a hard time fighting back the tears.
Here are the lyrics (Because it always helps me to read it :) )
"Hungry"
hungry I come to You
for I know You satisfy
I am empty
but I know Your love does not run dry
and I wait
and I wait
so I wait for You
so I wait for You
chorus
I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
broken I run to You
for Your arms are open wide
I am weary but I know Your touch restores my life
so I'll wait for You
so I'll wait for You
I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
Oh, I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
and I wait for you
and I wait for you
and I wait for you
and I wait
I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
Oh, I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
hungry I come to you,
for I know You satisfy
for I know You satisfy
I am empty
but I know Your love does not run dry
and I wait
and I wait
so I wait for You
so I wait for You
chorus
I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
broken I run to You
for Your arms are open wide
I am weary but I know Your touch restores my life
so I'll wait for You
so I'll wait for You
I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
Oh, I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
and I wait for you
and I wait for you
and I wait for you
and I wait
I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
Oh, I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
hungry I come to you,
for I know You satisfy
Beautiful if you ask me!
I've been thinking about my journey and at first was frustrated with how stubborn I was. But recently I have realized that it was all part of the plan. God needed me broken. He needed me down at my lowest point begging for help. He needed me to realize how much I needed Him in order for me to see His true beauty. He needed me to be at a point where I could say "Lord, here I am! Take me! Show me YOUR will." and actually mean it.
