love came down

I have sat here often this month.

In this place, with my fingers on the keyboard,

wanting to write, but hitting delete more than publish.

We are all busy.

 Tis the season of hurry and scurry.

But this week let’s choose to slow down a bit… 

rest, play, share, listen, think, pray, love, worship…

before we miss it. 

Let go of our to do list.

Focus on what gives richness to our lives.

Push away the craziness that robs us of all that matters.

Before we miss what this season celebrates.

this is a precious season of love…

a love that came down to rescue us from ourselves.

If my heart is overwhelmed and I cannot hear Your voice
I’ll hold on to what is true though I cannot see
If the storms of live they come
and the road ahead gets steep
I will lift these hands in faith I will believe

I remind myself of all that You’ve done
And the life I have because Your Son

Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am Yours I am forever Yours

Mountain high or valley low
I sing out remind my soul
I am Yours I am forever Yours

When my heart is filled with hope
and every promise comes my way
When I feel Your hands of grace rest upon me
Staying desperate for You God,
Staying humbled at Your feet
I will lift these hands and praise I will believe
I am Yours, I am Yours, all my days, I am Yours

{Love Came Down, Brian Johnson}
