they be thinking i'm a crazy person...

if they saw me in the boiling room singing out loud.

lately in the morning i'll pop a hillsong united youtube on,
and either sing along, think about the words, or dance/worship
like a crazy person.

last semester in bible class my professor said half of the things
out there weren't truly worship...in that we get so used to being
in "me" mode that even in worship we try to get something out
of it. when all Jesus wants is for us to give ourselves to Him.
pouring ourselves open on empty & giving it.
to lay our pride, brokeness, selfishness.
the things we hold on to till our knuckles turn white.
those things. the things that keep us captive.
keeps us from running free.
to give away those things.
really giving it.
daily.
over
and
over
again.

knowing we'll mess up & have to start the process again.
but knowing He is there to do it again with us.

knowing that this bravery
opens the heart to true
unbashful intimacy with a Saviour

who is

mysterious, loving, crazy, daring, & true
