Revealed Sovereignty
Beyond the doubt,
beyond the fear
There’s a moment
when glory exists so near
The world moves to
the beat of light
Always turning,
always yearning for a fight
But in His Hand is
calming peace
The love we want
but seen as the least
If only we were to
look we would find that place
Love magnified by
sovereign grace
So just drive on
Summer, heat on our face
Head towards the
sun until it ends
It’s there the
darkness bends
And I’ll meet You
at the river
Defeated, I search
desperately
Hope hunting me, reverently
The quicker I
look, the quicker I’ll find
The love that I’ve
wanted has always been mine
So just drive on
Summer, the heat on my face,
Head towards the
sun until it ends
It’s there the
darkness bends
And I’ll meet You
at the river
And as the stars
kiss the sun adieu
I see all that You
are, all the beauty in You
Met You at the
river as the sun came to an end
I watched Your
Hand as it bid darkness to bend
At the big river, broken,
I came to You
Watching the
shimmers of radiant blue
I drove on Summer
toward the sun
My heart, willingly,
gratefully, betrothed to Your Son
I’ve been spending more time downtown lately, and each
moment spent in the reflection of His creation just moves my soul.
Watching the sun dip beneath the earth, and as each tiny light sprinkles the
indigo evening, I just think how great is our God that every moment is a piece
of unrepeatable art.
Every day, God has continued to take my breath
away. Through the pain, through answered prayers, through understanding,
I feel Him in everything. This pulse I
have is directly connected to Him and I’ve been reminded so much lately that I
am His.
A few nights ago, I filled this blank
screen with prayers. The pages of my journals are
littered with desperate scrawlings, calling out to God. And it’s as I sit
here tonight, reflecting, that I give thanks to a God who is not slow to
answer. I’m thankful for His timing and His faithfulness.
I am thankful for His precision.
I am ever more assured that I have a God who loves, who
never leaves, who fights, who is unfailing and loves to love His children.
God, I am so sorry for the days and nights I overlook
You. I am so grateful for the last week,
and how You’ve taken me from there to here.
I thank You for each sunset, for every attempt You’ve ever made to break
into my heart. I am so sorry for having
turned away. I pray that I see You in
everything, in the every day, and that Your love remains clear and crisp now so
that if it is ever muted I can be reassured that even though I may not hear You
or see You that I will still feel You.
Let me never walk without You or away from You.
