Holy fire, burn away

My desire for anything

That is not of You

And is of me.

I want more of You and less of me.

Empty me, empty me.

FIll, won't You fill me,

With You, with You?

    This Sunday at church we repeated this chorus from Jeremy Camp's song "Empty Me." God grabbed my heart as I worshipped Him right there in the pew. The feeling was awesome! Our trip had been on my mind and on my heart all day (like it is most days (: ) and the Lord was just sharing in smiles with me all day as He showed me the wonderful things He will be doing.

    So we sang this chorus a few times through and I felt this overflowing feeling that as we travel to Uganda, and to Kenya, and to Tanzania we get to take something over to these beautiful people. And we don't have to worry if our fundraising will provide with enough money for it  - WE JUST ASK.

    The Lord wants us to come to Him, willing to be emptied, ridded of ourselves. He wants us to ask for Him to fill our emptiness with Him and only Him. And even greater - when we are willing and ready to take Him over with us in our hearts, we're never going to run out! There will never enough of Him in us! He is a neverending gift that we can present to every heart He leads us to!

     How beautiful is that? I know a lot of us are feeling overwhelmed with the huge fundraising task ahead of us but if we could try to hand it all over to Him we could see what wonderful gifts he is giving us to provide to these beautiful people He created. My heart has felt at ease and at peace in Him knowing that He isn't going to let us do this alone - He is excited to ride along with us! He is the one sending us after all! (:

    I just wanted to share that awesome moment I had with you guys. I hope everyone is having a great week and I cannot wait to everybody! God is really going to do some awesome heart renovations this summer and I am so ready to be a part of it. (:
