"I am the wandering son
Your love is never enough
I keep chasing the wind
Instead of chasing Your love
I'm screaming out Your name
Don't let me fall on my face
I've got a busted heart
I'm in need of a change
I'm desperate for grace."
-Busted Heart by For King & Country
I feel like this song describes my journey to unplug from the chatter of social media and plug into the true source of life. It's been 5 days. I haven't cheated. But is that really what it's all about?
It's so easy to replace the time spent on one thing with something else. I've been chasing the wind- trying to fill my time with cheap replacements of the real thing- God. My time doesn't need to be filled; it already is. By Him. His plans. His words. And I'm crowding them out with stuff. What a tragedy.
One step at a time, one day at a time, one minute at a time- He must increase, I must decrease.
Jesus, take all of me. Busted heart and all.
I am praying for you daily! God is using use in a mighty way to minister to so many, even while things are tough! I, for one, am thankful beyond words that you are allowing God to speak through you!
ReplyDeleteThat song (especially the first verse) has been speaking to me lately too! Thankful for a God who holds on to us!!!!
