All I want to do is praise Your holy name.
All I want to do is speak Your word to those who don’t know of Your fame.
All I want to say is what you put on my heart.
All I want to speak of is how thankful I am that You will never depart.
Because, no matter where I am and no matter what I do I know it’s all because of you. There will be sorrows and there will be pain, but You will stand beside me through it all over and over again.
All I want to sing of is how irresistible your love.
All I want to sing is glories to You on high, above.
All I want my life to be is a testament to My powerful savior.
All I want my life to be is only Yours forever.
I wrote this poem as a way to communicate with God and and just dedicate my life to doing what His will is. Lately I have been blessed to see some of what God has been working on in my life, and others as well. It's not very often that we get a glimpse of what he is doing. We know that it is good and that he is in control but when we get to see a little bit of what He is doing it is truly, truly amazing.
This year starting school has been such a humbling experience. God has grown me up in so many ways and shown me truly how powerful He is and made my eyes open to everything that He is. That the only way I will make it is to rely completely on Him, for He is only good and ONLY He is in control no matter how hard I try.
The last few weeks God has challenged me to stand up and do something about the concerns on my heart. I am in the beginning processes of starting a bible study with some teenagers, and/ or young adults where we will be learning about who God really is. It's "funny" because this issue of not knowing our God or making Him who we want Him to be (which we all do) has been brought to my attention since I began school this past year. I am constantly saying how people just don't know who God really is and if they did how it would change their lives (christians and non-christians) but what was I doing? absolutely nothing. UNTIL God burdened my heart to pray for some teens I know. To pray that they know God is in control and that they aren't alone. Then I knew what God wanted me to do. I apologize if this is sloppy writing but getting the feeling of excitement I have been experiencing is so hard for me to do!!! :]
The study is still in planning mode and I have people praying hard. If you are interested in the study at all or just want to help let me know! I want everyone to know who our God is!! Also, When i am talking about them and they I am not saying I am so much wiser or closer to God. I am guilty of everything I have mentioned as well. I can't wait to see what God is doing!!
until next time, Heather
