Give Me Faith

I love finding a song that speaks right to my heart. You know the ones, it seems like someone looked into your heart and pulled the lyrics right out. I‘ve found that in a song called "Give Me Faith" by Elevation Church. I am thankful for this song today.



I need you to soften my heart
to break me apart
I need you to open my eyes
to see that you're shaping my life

All I am
I surrender

Give me faith to trust what you say
that you're good and your love is great
I'm broken inside, I give you my life

I need you to soften my heart
to break me apart
I need you to pierce through the dark
and cleanse every part of me

I may be weak
Your spirit strong in me
My flesh may fail
My God you never will

Today, I need a little more faith. I don’t need faith to move mountains. I don’t need faith for a Parting-The-Red-Sea-Type-Of-Miracle. Today, I need the kind of faith that this song talks about. I need faith to trust what God says. I need faith to trust that he is good, and that he does have a great, personal, love for me. I need faith to believe that he has not forgotten me, that he has not forsaken me. I need faith to believe he has good works prepared for me to do that are more than just supporting from the sidelines. I need faith that produces joy. I need faith that produces rest. I need faith to trust that where I'm at today is not where I will always be. I need faith to believe that my life is not about my happiness and comfort. I need faith to believe that my life is for the fame and glory of Love.

I may be weak, I may fail, I may lack faith but my God you never will.

He is good & his love is great!!
