So I just read this. These few lines screamed for my attention.
“Hey Ray, that’s what I want for you! I want to take you places you’ve never been. I want you to experience things you’ve never experienced. I want to make you aware of things that you have no idea that even existed. Follow me!”
Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is the way; walk in it." Isaiah 30:21
Yes, I’m willing. Please make it easier for people around me… Alright, time to get back into the studying. First paper tomorrow! :)
Take my hand to the promise land And on You I want to stand ‘Cause I cannot do it on my own You're what I need and I need to be Right by Your side ‘cause I cannot hide Lord, I know that I need You
Na na na na na na na na na, I need You Na na na na na na na na na, I need You
Without You I'm so alone I am weak but You are strong You pick me up when I'm falling down And I am crying Out to You inside of my heart I need You, Lord, oh so, for the part I want You to have my life, Jesus I fall to my knees And I'm begging You, please, oh, Lord Won't You change me Make me new from the inside out I want to shout out Your name
My grace is enough; it's all you need. My strength comes into its own in your weakness.
Once I heard that, I was glad to let it happen. I quit focusing on the handicap and began appreciating the gift. It was a case of Christ's strength moving in on my weakness. Now I take limitations in stride, and with good cheer, these limitations that cut me down to size—abuse, accidents, opposition, bad breaks. I just let Christ take over! And so the weaker I get, the stronger I become.
one single thought came to mind...how many times we give up when it seems too hard..seems so easy to indulge in self pity and let circumstances dictate how we live life..
time to dream big and reach for it..
you were meant to live for so much more
