I was scrolling through my itunes yesterday and came across Jeremy Camp. I haven't listened to him in forever. As I was listening to the CD and doing my devos. This song struck my heart.
My desire.
You want to be real, you want to be empty inside
You want to be someone laying down your pride
You want to be someone someday
Then lay it all down before the king
You want to be whole, you want to have purpose inside
You want to have virtue and purify your mind
You want to be set free today
Then lay it all down before the King
This is my desire, this is my return
This is my desire to be used by You
You want to be real, you want to be emptied inside
And I know my heart is to feel You near
And I know my life
It's to do Your will
It's to do Your will
This is my desire, this is my return
This is my desire, to be used by You
This is my desire, this is my desire
To be used by You
All my life I have seen
Where You've taken me
Beyond all I have hoped
And there's more left unseen
There's not much I can do to repay all You've done
So I give my hands to use
This is my desire, this is my return
This is my desire, to be used by You
This is my desire, this is my desire
To be used by You
Read through it, I know it seems long, but really read it. Is that your desire? Deep down inside? Is that what you crave more than anything in the world? I want to do God's will. I want to be used by Him. I've seen God's faithfulness in the past, but there is so much more yet to come. I want to be used for His glory, to spread His love. I have been set free to do His Will. It's more than just wanting something. It needs to be the very breath you breathe. Something you can't live without.
I don't want to go casually in life, I will live in the moment. I will be used by God. I look forward to the future. As unknown and uncertain as it may be. I pray it is more than all I have hoped for.
Be used too. You won't regret it.
