We Can
It was exploding inside of me!
I was simi to half asleep; or was I dreaming? I'm not really sure,
but inspiration was flowing ever so
strongly, like a river, and flying
freely like a bird. I didn't quite
know what to make of it except
that something was either being
revealed or made freshly real.
Over the years, I have indeed felt
from time to time this desire for
full throttle expression. The words
were building and repeating themselves,
leaving no doubt that it really was a deeply
rooted and meaningful longing inside of me.
Those words were, 'I wish that I could sing!'
No, I cannot sing and would not be caught
singing alone on stage in a public venue.
You see, the singing is about 'the gushing out'.
However, the message is very clear to me
but not meant for only me. It is for all of us
who long for more of God and His touch upon
our lives to pursue and fulfill what He has called
us to do in this world.
So, in reality, the dream or the simi state of sleep
was saying to me that, it may not be 'about singing'
but 'about whatever'. In reality, I can fill in the blank,
"I Wish I Could....." In reality, God is saying to us,
"You need not wish that you could......."YOU CAN
do all things through CHRIST who gives you the strength".
In reality, God is saying, "Every good and perfect gift comes
from the Father. If it's from me, it's good. So, go on and do it".
