A Home For You

Come and make, my heart, Your home,

 and come and be everything I am & all I know,

and search, me through & through, till my heart becomes, a home for You

a home for You, Lord. A home for You, Lord

Let everything I do, open up a door for You to come through

And that my heart would be, a place where You want to be

'Cause You are my portion, filling up everything

You are the fortune, that's causing my heart to sing

that it's amazing that You could make Yourself at home with me

With me Lord, come & make my heart

Come & make it Your home,

and come and be everything I am & all I know,

and search me, through & through

till my heart becomes a home for You.

God has really used this song to speak to my heart lately! It is always in the back of my mind, & I find myself singing it or humming it to myself as I get ready for the day, or while I'm cleaning, or driving... You know. I don't know about anyone else, but music is like medicine for my soul! Actually, I shouldn't say that... I hate medicine. Okay.... Hmmmm. Maybe it's more like that peace you feel after a major storm blows over that produced hail & wind damage & tornados... And you know you're safe! It's like that for me. My comfort.

Sometimes I feel like God uses musicional artists to write a song just for me & I always seem to hear it RIGHT when I need it most! I know that's not entirely true, He didn't just inspire those Christian artists for me, but many others as well. However, there is total truth in God knowing all my needs even before I speak them to Him.

I have a blessed friend who just reminded me about God's love for me recently. She said "Leanna, friend, let God's love penetrate your heart. Cry out to Him. Confess you need it (His love) & Him more than ever. He already knows." And that's the beauty of it, isn't it! He DOES already know, but He desires to hear it from me. He wants that intimate relationship with me that you can only have by sharing what's REALLY on your heart! He. Wants. To. Know. About. Me........From me!

God, that is my prayer! Come & make, my heart, Your home. Come & be everything I am, & ALL I know. SEARCH ME, through & through, till my heart becomes, a home for You!

It is SO freeing to bathe yourself in the unconditional love of Christ!
