Holy

 I'm praying not only for them But also for those who will believe in me Because of them and their witness about me. The goal is for all of them to become one heart and mind—Just as you, Father, are in me and I in you, So they might be one heart and mind with us. Then the world might believe that you, in fact, sent me. The same glory you gave me, I gave them, So they'll be as unified and together as we are—I in them and you in me. Then they'll be mature in this oneness, And give the godless world evidence That you've sent me and loved them In the same way you've loved me. John 17:20-23
As I read this morning's devotions I couldn't help but think of this song I fell in love with awhile ago. Every time I hear it I am amazed once again by how God works and His being.

The song is by Addison Road and it is called "What Do I Know of Holy". The lyrics are really what entice me. They are so beautifully written and are so intriguing. I wanted to share these lyrics with you today.


I made You promises a thousand times.
I tried to hear from Heaven But I talked the whole time. I think I made You too smallI never feared You at all. If You touched my face would I know You? Looked into my eyes could I behold You?



I guess I thought that I had figured You out.
I knew all the stories and I learned to talk about How You were mighty to save. Those were only empty words on a page. Then I caught a glimpse of who You might be The slightest hint of You brought me down to my knees



What do I know of You
Who spoke me into motion? Where have I even stood But the shore along Your ocean? Are You fire? Are You fury? Are You sacred? Are You beautiful? What do I know? What do I know of Holy?


What do I know of Holy? What do I know of wounds that will heal my shame? And a God who gave life "its" name? What do I know of Holy? Of the One who the angels praise? All creation knows Your name. On earth and heaven above What do I know of this love?

                                                                 What do I know of Holy?


Powerful, right? I thought so too! I absolutely love this song. If you haven't heard it already I encourage you to look it up and listen to the music! It is absolutely beautiful!
He energizes those who get tired,gives fresh strength to dropouts. For even young people tire and drop out, young folk in their prime stumble and fall. But those who wait upon God get fresh strength. They spread their wings and soar like eagles. They run and don't get tired, they walk and don't lag behind. Isaiah 40:29-31
