in Your freedom I will live.

The lyrics to In Your Freedom by Hillsong are the words to the prayer in my heart today....

"I search for You God of strength
I bow to You in my brokenness
And no other King could have so humbly come
To save my soul and heal my heart

I have nothing more than all You offer me
There is nothing else that's of worth to me
And I love You Lord
You rescued me
You are all that I want
You're all that I need

I pray to You God of peace
I rest in You my cares released

I have nothing more than all You offer me
There is nothing else that's of worth to me
And I love You Lord
You rescued me
You are all that I want
You're all that I need

In Your freedom I will live
In Your freedom I will live
I offer devotion, I offer devotion"


For some time now I've been filling my life with things that leave me empty at the end of the day. All I really desire is to know my Lord more and more. I'm resting in His truth and promises, especially today. I've made a mess of my life recently and I'm declaring that today is the end of it all. I will NOT find my worth in anything/anyone but the One who created me with His own hands. My God is the One who saves and redeems and He is restoring my life even this very second. I will rest in the Lord and NOTHING ELSE. His love comes with no conditions and I want to live in the freedom that comes from His true love. The crazy mess in my life is delivering me right into the palm of God's hand and pulling me into His heart, which is where I always want to be.

"Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God had poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us." [Romans 5: 1-5]

I just LOVE that little nugget of truth! Mmm mmm good. Meditating on this piece of Scripture today.
