No more wishing wells... Jesus and I are about to make our dreams come true...

Sunday morning, Bro. Campbell preached a message about soul winning. About how if it's in our hearts, we'll be active in His service, and when we do that, the Lord will be in control and things will happen the way He wants them to.

And then I bought this Sara Groves cd and the first song fit what I was feeling perfectly!

Past the Wishing


I'm standing at the foot of this mountain
Wishing so bad that I could touch that sky
But in the time it takes to make my wish
I never take a step and I never try

I wish that I were closer to Jesus
But not enough to get me out of bed
For an early morning prayer before the
Rushes of my life take me instead

I'm past the wishing
Past the wishing
Past the wishing

I'm gazing in these deep well waters
Where the pennies of my life have all been cast
I'’ve decided I am going to save my money
To do something that lasts

You've shown me my man of Macedonia
You're calling me further on
And I'm tired of saying it's a nice idea
I wish it could be done

I don't wish that I could go I am going
I don't wish that I could be I am being
I don't wish that I could do it I am doing
By the grace of God I am doing



I WILL go and be and do. I have such lofty ideas and for all of my ideas and plans nothing happens. I'm past the wishing..... God has given me all I will ever need.

"The road of good intentions doesn't lead to anywhere.... Love isn't love 'til you give it away...."

Here's me.... offering up my mustard seed of faith. It's so small. But in His big hands.... there is possibility.
