In Awe, Overwhelmed.

Here's my heart Lord,

Here's my heart Lord

Here's my heart Lord, 

Speak what is true

‘Cause I am found, I am Yours

I am loved, I'm made pure

I have life, I can breathe

I am healed, I am free

(Chorus)

Here's my heart Lord,

Here's my heart Lord

Here's my heart Lord, 

Speak what is true

‘Cause I am found, I am Yours

I am loved, I'm made pure

I have life, I can breathe

I am healed, I am free

‘Cause You are strong, You are sure

You are life, You endure

You are good, always true

You are light breaking through

(Chorus)

Here's my heart Lord,

Here's my heart Lord

Here's my heart Lord, 

Speak what is true

Here's my life Lord,

Here's my life Lord

Here's my life Lord, 

Speak what is true

Speak what is true

Speak what is true

I am found, I am Yours

I am loved, I'm made pure

I have life, I can breathe

I am healed, I am free

‘Cause You are strong, You are sure

You are life, You endure

You are good, always true

You are light breaking through

You are more than enough

You are here, You are love

You are hope, You are grace

You're all I have, You're everything

(Chorus)

Here's my heart Lord,

Here's my heart Lord

Here's my heart Lord, 

Speak what is true

Here's my life Lord,

Here's my life Lord

Here's my life Lord, 

Speak what is true

Speak what is true

Speak what is true

This is what has been in my head the last couple of days. I've been meditating on how the LORD sees me. Not society, not friends, not parents, but the LORD, Himself.

My friend, Waverly, prompted my reflection with these two tweets.

Every time I read #RedeemingLove I am brought to my knees with the realization of the love and power of the God I serve.

The God of the bible is immensely bigger than the "god" that our culture portrays. #inutterawe

HE is ENOUGH. 

HE is LOVE.

HE is GRACE. 

HE is GOOD. 

HE is LIFE. 

I have been REDEEMED. 

I am LOVED. 

I have LIFE. 

I have been HEALED. 

I remember when I first realized how true these truths were. I remember sitting in that stairwell in Washington, DC., letting them sink into me and becoming overwhelmed. 

Overwhelmed by His love for me. 

Overwhelmed by His grace for me. 

Overwhelmed to the point of uncontrollable tears. 

God, You are my everything. 

You do love me. 

You have redeemed me. 

You do give me grace even in my darkest. 

Oh, God. 

There is not enough words to express my gratitude. 
I am forever indebted to You.
