Why Does He So Often Speak to Me in the Car?

I guess to answer my question, it's because in my car I'm probably a little more quiet and a little more still. I suppose a lesson is in there somewhere, but I can't stop long enough to think about that! ;-)

I heard this song at lunch. It spoke to me. I do feel like I've been in the crucible and a lot has been burned off. Yet I've felt Him more apparent that ever! Throwing off all that hinders me really does leave much more room for God! It doesn't mean it wasn't painful. But it was worth it! And it will continue to be. It's not over yet!! No, not yet.

I especially love the last lines! His love has set free because He is my total heart's desire. Let me shout that from mountaintops!

Hope Now
by Addison Road

If everything comes down to love
Then just what am I afraid of
When I call out Your name
Something inside awakes in my soul
How quickly I forget I'm Yours

I'm not my own
I've been carried by You
All my life

Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free
When my life is like a storm
Rising waters all I want is the shore
You say I'll be ok and
Make it through the rain
You are my shelter from the storm

I'm not my own
I've been carried by You
All my life

Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free

Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free

You've become my hearts desire
I will sing Your praises higher
Cause Your love sets me free
Your love sets me free
Your love sets me free


All for now,
Lisa
