OVERJOYED

Wow
Words cannot express the emotion bursting from within me
"Joy like a fountain" I never understood
My skin tingles with excitement
Chills run up and down my spine
My smile refuses to fade
Laughter sits in my throat waiting to jump out
Tears (TEARS?!?) burn in my eyes
YHWH you are so good!
Screams and shouts beg to escape my lips
My heart races, not with anxiety
My lungs get too excited to hesitate for the next breath
My body longs to dance and leap in excitement
My mind races with victorious laps
The battle is yours, not ours
Hell trembles in fear beneath my feet
I stomp my feet and clap my hands
This is not happiness
This is joy
More than that
This is overjoyed

YHWH you have taken the little that I have given and made it great
My tears of surrender are well worth this treasure I have
Light has pierced darkness that once overwhelmed me
I was overwhelmed
Now I am overjoyed
I am refreshed, I am made new, I am restless
God, take this and use it
You take my pain and suffering
I want you to have this too
If you can do this with that
What could you do with this?
I'm even more excited!
You are glorious!
You alone are worthy of praise!
I will sing your praises at the top of my lungs!
I will shout from the mountaintops!

God, I've Messed Up

Lord, I know I could never be perfect. I know I could not earn my salvation. I am saved by your grace and mercy alone. Forgive me, O Lord. You are kind and gracious to forgive You seek justice You have paid for my sins I am forgiven God, I am amazed everyday by your love and grace. How can you still love me? You are everything to me. You love me despite my mistakes. You have forgiven me. You died for me. You love me, so that I might love you. Lord, my heart is yours.
