Stranger

Mandi Mapes wrote a song on her new CD called "Stranger." I feel like I will need to listen to this everyday to get me thru the next 2 years.

"Just another day in a beautiful town, where money makes the world go round
Caught in a place where no matter what I do I feel let down
'Casue I keep chasing all these funny things, that don't even matter in the end

This world is not my home, I am a stranger in this country
Jesus won't you pour me out I'm ready to abandon all my shiny things, my family
and this American dream. Lord, take it all from me until, there's nothing left but You.

Open my eyes that I may see the depravity in my life
may Your word tear down my sinful heart, and fill me with new desires.
By Your spirit I will live for You, and love You with all my soul.
So have Your way and let Your kingdom come."

Goodbyes have never been easy for me, especially when the thought of never seeing them again replays over and over again my mind.

"Have Your Way Oh God!"

  1. you will make it through this beautifully, friend. Your God sustains you and equips you and sends you out...and goes with you. That's the best part. Praying for you girl! I can't wait to hear about the great things you're going to see God do!
