Love Come to Life

I've been restless on the inside
Wondering about this heart of mine
I've been desperately trying to find
A way to prove that I'm still alive
Has the love I speak so loudly of quietly grown cold
Has my life been an empty voice?
What I say needs to be seen
I need to step out and make the choice
To let go of everything
Would you reignite this heart spark here in the dark?


Bring your love to life inside of me
Why don't you break my heart til it moves my hands and feet
For the hopeless and the broken
For the ones that don't know that you love them
Bring your love to life inside of me


A generation you're calling out
Living everything that we sing about
A revelation right here and now
Of love beyond a shadow of a doubt
Love that's greater than our own
Won't remain unknown, when you

Lord over everything, You are near

Jesus nothing compares to this grace that rescues me
Savior, now and forever Your face is all I need.

Now all I am I lay at Your feet
I'm humbled by the wonder of Your majesty 
One thing I know, I find all I need...
In Your unending love.


This is one of my favorite pictures from Japan.
Enjoy!

God is Able

Your love has set 
The broken captives free 
Your love released the chains once binding me 
I'm found in grace In love's embrace 
My heart is overwhelmed


I can't stop thinking about what pastor keeps saying in service after worship on Sundays.
"If you say that you felt like you just didn't feel worship today or got anything from it... Well.. it's because you didn't put anything in to it."
It's so true. What you put in is what you get.
If your heart isn't in to worship God, of course you aren't going to get anything.
I ask myself frequently what am I doing with my life, and where I'm going with all this schooling that I'm doing. I honestly have no idea.
This week definitely wasn't the best.
I finally decided on majoring in accounting... but every time I get my test marks back it's like big blow. I feel like I honestly can't do this. It's taken me a year to figure out what I want to do and it feels like it's only getting harder. I can't stay a moment awake not thinking about school.
Yes, it won't be a big deal when I look back but I feel like this is a major decision I have to make, and I want it to be the right.
I have a hard time deciding on things because I want that outcome to be the right outcome...
After the whole car incident last week, I keep losing confidence on what I can do, and if I'm even doing anything right at all.
In one of the services pastor said that "if you don't know where you're going, any path will take you there".
Gah.. what am i even doing?
Worship today was a peace of mind that I really needed.
I want to lay every burden I have at your feet.

Family. School. Broken relationships. My future.
Right at the foot of the cross... I lay it all down.
It's Yours.

We walk on this narrow road 
Now restored as one we walk 
In Your hope 
And though 
Darkness fills our path 
Fear won't fix its hold on us 
For we know 
Love will shine before us on our path 
And guide our every step within the dark


Lord here we are with humbled hearts
To see your will be done
Let love shape us to Your own design
To bear our Maker's sign
