Feel Good Wednesday #17

Do you ever feel dry in your relationship with God? Do you ever feel like you don't have the right words to pray? Like you have no idea what to say? Like you're an empty well just waiting to be filled? Do you just wish sometimes God would come and just move you to where He wants you to go? Do you ever feel like you wish God would just simply sweep over you like a cool breeze?

I have noticed that it doesn't take very long to fill like the above. One day you may be singing and praising Him, one day you may be on your knees praying and feeling His presence....and then the next day you just feel empty. That is exactly how I have been feeling lately. Totally honest there. I don't feel angry at God about anything. I guess I have just become boringly content. Does that even make sense there? Maybe that was the wrong 2 words to put together. Is boringly even a word? Haha I digress...anyways...I think we all feel like this at one point or maybe even many points in our lives. I am speaking for myself here, but I think I just allow myself to become too lazy or too busy and totally overlook what I really should be doing. Like instead of sleeping in, I should be getting up and praying. I have not been doing a good job about that. It's time to wake up! It's time to quit being lazy! It's time to quit allowing other things in our schedules to get in the way of our relationship with God.

Once again as I was driving to work today "the" song was played. I like our local christian radio station because they play songs I haven't heard before. I hope the words of this blog and this song do something for you today as it has done for me. I pray that I will wake up and allow God to move or at least move me.

Lord move, or move me

by FFH - Found a Place

I can't find the words to pray

I'm a little down today

Can you help me?

Can you hold me?

I feel a million miles away

And I don't know what to say

Can you hear me anyway?

What I need is for you to reach out your hand

You have taught me

No matter what you'd understand

CHORUS:

Lord move in the way, that I've never seen before

Cause there's a mountain in the way and a lock on the door

I'm drifting away, waves are crashing on the shore

So Lord move (move), or move me.

I've looked everywhere to find

A simple peace of mind

I can't find nothing on my own

So I got to leave myself behind

Take up this cross of mine

Give away everything I hold onto

Lord I know the only way is through this

But Lord I know I need you to help me do this

CHORUS

Out of this place of complacency

To a place of fellowship with thee

Cause I am weak but Lord you are so strong

And you know it's been way too long (been way too long)

Lord move in the way, that I've never seen before

Cause there's a mountain in the way and a lock on the door

I'm drifting away, waves are crashing on the shore

So Lord move (move)...CHORUS

John 10:7-10 (KJV)
Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
