I'm here to meet with you
come and meet with me
I'm here to find you reveal yourself to me
As I wait, you make me strong
As I long, draw me to your arms
As I stand and sing your praise
You come, you come and you fill this place
Won't you come,
Won't you come and fill this place
as i began to write this blog, the song "Meet with Me" started on my to play on my Pandora station. i was wondering just how to word everything that I'm going through and feeling. I don't know if there really are words; it seems to be a time of waiting, not knowing, bracing for change and praying that I can hold on when that change comes.
Every time that i hear the chorus to "Meet with Me" and it talks about waiting... i see myself just standing with my arms open wide and HIS wind blowing on me, renewing me, strengthening me. I guess that is how I feel right now, longing for more of His presence to come and fill me.
Lately I have come to see just how empty I feel without the constant feeding from the Word, as well as not having body of believers to go and worship with. The saying is true, you don't know how good you've got it until it's gone.
David will be deploying within the next two weeks. There isn't a set date, so naturally that is a little unsettling. But then I ask myself, why am I so dependant on a date? By now I should be used to the un-methodical life of the Air Force.
I know in the end it will all be alright, David will go and I will grow. I will learn to be self-sufficient on an even greater level.
We have loved Natzar becoming part of our little family. While he can definitely try our nerves and patience with the house breaking, we absolutely love him. He really is a sweetheart and David has loved teaching him tricks. I am amazed at the diligence that David has with training him, I hope I can keep it up when he's gone!
College however has been somewhat of a disappointment for me. I expected my classes to be more difficult than high school, but this is not the case. no worries, I will complete the classes. Next semester I just want to be challenged more.
Holding on and pressing in,
Lindsey
