Touch of the Master's Hand

Made to Love You!

 "The dream is fading, now I'm staring at the door
I know its over cause me feet have hit the cold floor
Check my reflection, I aint feelin what I see
It's no mystery

Whatever happened to a passion I could live for
What became of the flame that made me feel more

And when did I forget that..."

I have heard this song many times but somehow never really listened to that first verse.

There has been many times recently that I have struggled with feeling like I am not doing anything important. My life seems to be in constant "waiting" mode. Always waiting for something to happen but never seeming to reach that "someday" when it will actually happen.

So when this song played on the radio this morning it hit me. So many people are in the same boat as I am in yet somehow we forget that...

"I was made to love You
I was made to find You
I was made just for You
Made to adore You
I was made to love
And be loved by You
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And You said You'd keep me
Never would You leave me
  I was made to love and be loved by You"

I was created to glorify God all the days of my life.  No matter where I am, what I am doing, what I am feeling,  even if my life seem a little pointless at times, a day does not go by that is wasted when I live my life for the glory of God. To honour Him with my life! For what more could I ask!

My goal is to take life one step, one moment, at a time and as long as I am glorifying my Father in heaven then my life shall never be purposeless.  My goal is to make a difference in someones life today, whether it be smiling to a stranger, helping my little brother, praying for our soldiers, or be cheerful when I don't feel like it. How can I be Christ's hands and feet today? And show the world that I was made - created  to love God! 

"The dream's alive with my eyes opened wide
Back in the ring You've got me swinging for the grand prize
I feel the hate is spittin vapors on my dreams
But I still beleive
I'm reachin out, reachin up, reachin over
I feel a breeze cover me called Jehovah
And daddy I'm on my way
Cause I was made to love You"

Song - "Made to Love" by TobyMac

I wear a poppy because I remember and am thankful.

I am not much for words. I can't easily express what I feel. But just know that I don't just wear this poppy because everyone else is doing it, because it is the "thing" to do, just know that I wear it because I am proud of our soldiers, I am praying, and I appreciate the sacrifices that were made for my freedom. 

It doesn't take this day in November for me to remember the soldiers. But it does give a opportunity to come together and show our utmost appreciation for what you do. So thank you.

I feel more at ease on this horse than I do in the company of any amount of human beings.

 

 

 

 

Against such there is 

no law.

"November comes
And November goes,
With the last red berries
And the first white snows.

With night coming early,
And dawn coming late,
And ice in the bucket
And frost by the gate.

The fires burn
And the kettles sing,
And earth sinks to rest
Until next spring."
