He's Careful

"Risk your life and get more than you ever dreamed of. Play it safe and end up holding the bag."

This scripture came from Luke 19:26 in the Message paraphrase.

I had just told Jeffry Saturday night about how I was a little nervous about debuting my song the next morning. He was telling me there's nothing to be worried about.

I went on to explain to him that this song is very vulnerable. It completely shows my heart. It literally came straight out of my prayer journal. He comforted me and encouraged me which was great.

Sunday morning I got up to read my One Year Bible as usual, and I came across this verse in Luke."Risk your life and get more than you ever dreamed of. Play it safe and end up holding the bag." Through this verse, God told me that morning that we don't have to be afraid to risk our lives and our dreams because He is careful with us. He will not take advantage of our hearts. I didn't realize it as I wrote down those words, but while I was in the shower He reminded me. I realized that He was telling me that although my heart would be completely exposed through this song, that He is careful with my heart and won't take advantage of it.

Wow...He's so faithful and careful with us. He's tender and loving, the perfect example of a Daddy.

Who Am I

Great news! I wrote a song!

Obviously I have written some little choruses and verses here and there, but this is the first full song! Thursday afternoon I was reading over some verses and things in my prayer journal. There was a verse from Psalm 81 that just resonated with me, and I was thinking how great it would be to music. So I sat down at my piano with my prayer journal and just started playing chords and singing the verse and the words that the Lord had given me earlier in the week.

The Holy Spirit truly fell in my living room that day! It was such a sweet time with the Lord that I will never forget. A lifetime memory. I was so touched and moved that I called and told my best friend, my husband, and my pastor about the experience.

When I told my pastor he said, "Words and chords?" and I said "Yes..."

"Good, bring it tonight, I want to hear the whole band play it."

...my pastor has a great way of not just kicking you out of the nest but actually catapulting you off into the sunset. But I love him for it.

Out of Thursday afternoon and night came the 601's first worship song that truly has our heart written all over it.

I'll have to figure out a way to get a recording on here but here are the lyrics:

Who Am I

V1: I hear a voice, a whisper from the One
I never thought would speak to me
God, who am I, that you even choose to know me
You sent Your son to die for me

C: Praise flows from my heart ////

V2: You came to me, in the cool of the day
You came to me and showed me the way
You came to me, in the midst of where I stood
You sent Your son to die for me

C: Praise flows from my heart ////

BR: I know that I'm accepted
I know that I am Yours
I know that I'm forgiven
Because the cross You bore

Passion for Jesus Conference

The ihop Passion for Jesus Conference can be viewed LIVE online here April 8-10!

"If you have the Holy Spirit, you're on the ministry team."- Mike Bickle

"The wars of the Lord aren't enough to keep your heart in love with Him. There has to be an element of the heart that says I'm a man of one thing. I love Jesus who highly pursues us. When His face is drawn from you, you realize you cannot live on false loves. My heart has to find the flame. Sometimes God comes searching for us through songs, burning bushes...but I thank Him that He comes searching for us. He is coming to put passion for Jesus in our hearts." - Lou Engle
