Couldn't have said it better myself

Jamie at Inspired Mess shared this song with me months ago when I had blogged about an unknown future. At the time I listened to it and while it ministered to my heart because it was full of truth, it didn't go beyond the "oh it's a good song, thanks" phase in my brain.
Lately. When I hear this song I usually cry my brains out while agreeing with it's words. Not a sad cry but a surrendered cry. There is a definite difference. There are days, though, when I have a sad cry. But I remember that the best place to wait in in a position of worship.


There are certain songs that describe certain phases of life or express a hearts cry perfectly.


Right now, this is one of those songs.


While I'm Waiting

I'm waiting 
I'm waiting on You, Lord 
And I am hopeful 
I'm waiting on You, Lord 
Though it is painful 
But patiently, I will wait 

I will move ahead, bold and confident 
Takeing every step in obedience 
While I'm waiting 
I will serve You 
While I'm waiting 
I will worship 
While I'm waiting 
I will not faint 
I'll be running the race 
Even while I wait 

I'm waiting 
I'm waiting on You, Lord 
And I am peaceful 
I'm waiting on You, Lord 
Though it's not easy 
But faithfully, I will wait 
Yes, I will wait 

I will serve You while I'm waiting 
I will worship while I'm waiting 
I will serve You while I'm waiting 
I will worship while I'm waiting 
I will serve you while I'm waiting 
I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord





Pardon the youtube video.. I am not so smart and don't know how to just put the mp3 up. :)







Another one is Your Hands by JJ Heller


I have unanswered prayers
I have trouble I wish wasn't there
And I have asked a thousand ways
That You would take my pain away
That You would take my pain away

I am trying to understand
How to walk this weary land
Make straight the paths that crookedly lie
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

When You walked upon the Earth
You healed the broken, lost, and hurt
I know You hate to see me cry
One day You will set all things right
Yea, one day You will set all things right

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

Your hands
Your hands that shape the world 
Are holding me, they hold me still
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave You when...

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave...
I never leave Your hands

Watching and Waiting. Expecting.

 With all my heart,

   I am waiting, LORD, for you!

   I trust your promises.

    I wait for you more eagerly

   than a soldier on guard duty

   waits for the dawn.

   Yes, I wait more eagerly

   than a soldier on guard duty

   waits for the dawn.

Psalm 130:5-6
