i have been chosen...

I am still loving my bible study, No Other Gods by Kelly Minter. The Word that we are chosen, that we are God's children, that we are more precious than jewels, that we are the royal priesthood...have so spoken to my heart. We can stop seeking and searching for our identity when we realize that God has already found us. We were lost, but now are found. We were blind, but now can see...

This song (an old Watermark song) has been my song of the week...and is my anthem going into this weekend's women's encounter. I am praying for peace, freedom and obedience.

Drive to Humility

I have been chosen to be driven to humility.
To be wholly refined in Your Holy blaze of fire.
And even when I'm sturdy, I pray You'll keep my knees dirty.
May the heart of Your will be my only heart's desire

One thousand miles of road not taken
Sure I tremble, yet my faith will not be shaken
You're teaching me, You're in control
Sure the waves could knock me down but I say let 'em roll'

Cause I have been chosen to be driven to humility
To be wholly refined in Your holy blaze of fire
And even when I'm sturdy, I pray You'll keep my knees dirty
May the heart of Your will be my only heat's desire

I don't mean to boast about my tomorrows
But I'm resting in the man who knows my pain and all my sorrows...
Well you're kindness brought repentance
For the years of foolish pride
Sometimes You've got to knock me down
Just so I can see the light.
