A couple things I want to share.
First, a few verses that I shared in orchestra devotions this week.
The first is Romans 12:2 "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."
Romans 12:2 is a great reminder that when we change our perspective and focus on God and worship Him (the verses before that are about worship) then we can rest in His will.
Genesis 28:15 "I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go... I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”
Psalm 9:10 "Those who know your name will trust in you,
for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you."
These two verses are really good promises from God. God will NEVER leave, but says "I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go." So great.
I wrote a song the other day and these are the words. It's mostly a prayer and the things I desire with my relationship with God.
Dear God (I Want to Have Your Strength)
Claire Graber
2/4/12
I want to have Your strength
Quietly apparent when I stand
I want to hear You say my name
Until it is just who I am
I want to be known as Yours
I want to be completely in love
I want to find You in my prayers
And fall inside Your peace
Lead me to where I understand
The knowledge of Your Word
I want to see Your healing power
Working as You change my life
I seek the words to ask You who You are
Where I go is where You lead
And where I am is in Your hand
Right where I'm supposed to be
