Embrace

I need change. I need to change. I want to change.

These familiar thoughts echo through my head on an almost daily basis. My journey to fill my "emptiness" continues.

New Year's is often a time of change to more then just the calendar for many people. It's the time to make new resolutions, become motivated, and have a fresh start. This year, rather then making a cliche list of "needed" self improvements, I want to learn day by day, week by week to embrace who God has made me to be. 

My goal this week is to focus on encouraging thoughts and words. 

Psalm 139: 13-18
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can't even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand!

All I Can Do (Thank You) by MikesChair

I could write a love song
Tell You what I think you wanna hear
But it wouldn't be good enough, no
Yeah, I could try so hard
To give it everything I got
But I'm not ever gonna measure up

All I can do is thank You
For this life I never deserve
Wanna thank You for the grace
I know I don't have to earn
You love me, You love me
Your mercy is proof
All I can do is say thank You
All I can do is say thank You

It would have been easy
But I'm glad You never walked away
'Cause Your love runs deep for me
And I see this beautiful world
And it brings tears to my eyes
And I think it's beautiful to be free

All I can do is thank You
For this life I never deserve
Thank You for the grace
I know I don't have to earn
You love me, You love me
Your mercy is proof
All I can do is say thank You
All I can do is say thank You

Thank You for hope, for love
For all the ways You move
Thank you for everything You do
What else can I say but thank You?
Thank you 

I could write a love song
Tell You what I think you wanna hear
But it wouldn't be good enough

All I can do is thank You
For this life I never deserve
Wanna thank You for the grace
I know I don't have to earn
You love me, You love me
Your mercy is proof
All I can do is say thank You
All I can do is say thank You
