Here I am

I believe today would be day 74 of the WWJD challenge...

That's a long time! I'm already able to look back and see how much I've grown! I can't wait to look back a year from now!

As I get to know God more it's clear to me that it's not an option to go and tell people about God! We are supposed to go and make disciples! Man! It's crazy how it can be so much easier to go to another country and do that, than it is to go to your neighbor. At least that's how it is for me.

I depend on myself way to much! I've said that so many times in this blog. That's my biggest stumbling block. I've seen what totally surrendering and letting God lead can do! That's what I want every day of my life! And that's how it should be!

He tells me to be strong and courageous...to be bold! He says he will use our weaknesses to show his strength! He will put words in my mouth. All I have to say is here I am use me Lord! With God I've already won! I have nothing to worry about! He is reaching out his hand, and all I need to do is take it! It's so simple.

I don't want to let fear control me. Fear of being judged by the people around me for being bold in my faith. A verse a day on Facebook is not "reaching out" enough! So I'll take His hand, I will let Him lead! He has amazing things planned for my life and your life!

"You’re reaching out to me oh I can see you've got something beautiful planned
  So I’ll take hold of you I know you’ll pull me through
No matter what happens, I will follow you"
: :Reaching Out To Me
HERE I AM USE ME LORD!



Into the heart of the darkest places
Into the lost and the lonely spaces
Bringing the hope and the life You've given
I'll move cause You move me

Into the lives of forgotten children
Showing the love they were never given
Open my eyes to the world I don't see
Show me cause I know...

We need, a heart for the hopeless, reaching
The places unspoken, move me Lord
Raise up, a desperate people, leading
The lost and feeble, use me Lord
Use me Lord

Give me a fire that's always burning
Every desire for You is stirring
I am alive now to show Your glory
I'll move cause You move me

Into the light when Your love is shining
Only by faith with Your Spirit guiding
Open my eyes to the world I don't see
Show me cause I know...

We need, a heart for the hopeless, reaching
The places unspoken, move me Lord
Raise up, a desperate people, leading
The broken and feeble, use me Lord
Here I am, use me Lord

We need to wake up
We need to raise up
Cause I will never stand still, Lord keep me moving, moving

We need, a heart for the hopeless, reaching
The places unspoken, move me Lord
Here I am, use me Lord
Raise up, a desperate people, leading
The broken and feeble, use me Lord
Here I am, use me Lord

We need, a heart for the hopeless, reaching
The places unspoken, use me Lord
Use me Lord
Raise up, a desperate people, leading
The broken and feeble, use me Lord
Here I am, use me Lord
