Here With Me

I'm sitting at my desk. I open up iTunes and start some music. I start a shuffled playlist. I open my journal and write, "God please fill me up." I'm feeling a bit empty - not really sure why. Well, that's not totally true. I know why. And it's more than just a bit empty. But I need God to fill up all those empty spaces in my heart.

The first song is Here with Me by Mercy Me.

I long for your embrace
Every single day
To meet you in this place
And see you face to face

Will you show me?
Reveal yourself to me
Because of your mercy
I fall down on my knees

And I can feel your presence here with me
Suddenly I'm lost within your beauty
Caught up in the wonder of your touch
Here in this moment I surrender to your love

You're everywhere I go
I am not alone
You call me as your own
To know you and be known

You are holy
And I fall down on my knees

I can feel your presence here with me
Suddenly I'm lost within your beauty
Caught up in the wonder of your touch
Here in this moment I surrender to your love

I surrender to your grace
I surrender to the one who took my place

I can feel your presence here with me
Suddenly I'm lost within your beauty
Caught up in the wonder of your touch
Here in this moment I surrender:

I can feel your presence here with me
Suddenly I'm lost within your beauty
Caught up in the wonder of your touch
Here in this moment I surrender to your love

Why is God choosing music to speak to me so much lately? I'm not complaining - just curious.
