God Speaking by Mandisa

Have you ever heard a love song
That set your spirit free
Have you ever watched a sunrise
And felt you could not breathe
What if it's Him
What if it's God speaking
Have you ever cried a tear that
You could not explain
Have you ever met a stranger
That already knew your name
What if it's Him
What if it's God speaking

Who knows how He'll get a hold of us
Get our attention to prove He is enough
He'll do and He'll use
Whatever He wants to
To tell us I love you

Have you ever lost a loved one
Who you thought should still be here
Do you know what it feels like
To be tangled up in fear
What if He's somehow involved
What if He's speaking through it all

His ways are higher
His ways are better
Though sometimes strange
What could be stranger
Than God in a manger

God is speaking
I love you

Lonely no more

Dear Jesus,

Here in my loneliness, I resign myself to You. I resign myself from wanting so much, from wanting parties, and a boyfriend, and outings. I resign myself from wanting better clothes, better things, a car, a bigger house. I want to not want anything. Just God, just You, and the moment. The moment that is all you give to me.

Here in my loneliness, I am no longer pressured with sadness as I think about You. You are the secret to not having this sadness that seems to suffocate. I only turn to You and all is gone. It is only You and I. The stars and the universe. Lonely stars not lonely any longer with the light from Your hand. You form them, you make them, you caress them like no other. This is how you caress me and console me. If only everyone knew this secret. That in You is everything, everything we need.

Just like an angel

God is a baby
God is Father
God is the heart that always sings
God is endless joy and mercy
God is that rose that revives my days
God is that tender bluest sky
God is that stranger, just like an angel
God is that homeless you just give a dime
God is the silence
God is peace
God is faith, and hope, and love
God is laughter
God is all that we could ask for
God is Jesus Christ

In God's hands

I was just listening to Nelly Furtado's song called "In God's hands" i can relate to this song very much. about a year ago, a boyfriend i loved very much left me, our relationship had lasted almost a year, when he decided not to be with me anymore. i was left with an unbearable pain in my heart. i can totally relate to this song's lyrics. but in my case, in all the parts where it says "we", it should really say
"he"

In God's Hands Lyrics

Flipping through my Women of Faith Devotional Bible again, i came across this perfect quote: "Only God coming into your life can heal your soul from some of the wounds and brokenness you've had." --Barbara Johnson

This quote comes to me as a confirmation that God is healing me or is going to heal me of any wounds i may have left in my heart and soul. i thank God for this Bible, for these words from this wise woman, for this blog.

A girl after God's own heart

I didn't know what i was going to title this blog. i asked God for the perfect name, so i opened my Bible and there was this quote from 1 Samuel 13:14: "The LORD has sought for Himself a man after His own heart...." i hope to write new poems for God, new journal entries about my journey with Him; that this blog will give Glory to Him is what i aim for. to deepen my love for Him.
