Leave It There

If your body suffers pain and your health you can't regain,
And your soul is almost sinking in despair,
Jesus knows the pain you feel, He can save and He can heal;
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.

-A. C. Tindley, "Leave it there"


Ahh couldn't have summarised the last two weeks better myself. Had a great God moment today. I was sitting at my desk, about to start typing stuff for my essay when all of a sudden I started singing. Now for those who know me this happens quite often (maybe too often) but I usually actually "plan" on singing before doing it (!). This time I closed my eyes and sang and my feet and hands were accompanying me...it was beautiful, serene, holy. I almost wanted to stop and work but I couldn't. It was clearly the Spirit of the Lord bringing me into his presence and putting, as I often pray and ask, songs of praise and joy in my heart and on my lips. He answered and it was the sweetest moment. :) I love him.

"I will say of the LORD,
he is my strength
he is my high tower,
and I will say of the LORD,
he is my light,
he is my fire...
Father, Redeemer, Saviour..."
