It's a long, long journey Till I know where I'm supposed to be It's a long, long journey and I don't know if I can believe When shadows fall and block my eyes I am lost and know that I must hide It's a long, long journey Till I find my way home to you Many days I've spent Drifting on through empty shores Wondering what's my purpose Wondering how to make me strong I know I will falter I know I will cry I know you'll be standing by my side It's a long, long journey And I need to be close to you Sometimes it seems no one understands I don't even know why I do the things I do When pride builds me up till I can't see my soul Will you break down these walls and pull me through? 'Cause it's a long, long journey Till I feel that I am worth the price You paid for me on calvary Beneath those stormy skies When Satan mocks and friends turn to foes It feels like everything is out to make me lose control It's a long, long journey Till I find my way home to you------------------------------------------------------------------------------
woke up today realli realli realli not wanting to touch e bible. so in e end, decided to just have a chat. n somehow, He prompted me to listen to this song. i used to love this song in my times of trouble, but by His grace, my life is soaring now, n somehow, this song doesn't touch me just as much. so it was kinda weird, tat He asked me to listen to this song again.
but you never go wrong when you listen to Him.
somehow, tears just couldn't stop flowing.
thoughts of His love comes streaming thru, and grace just flooded my mind.
Cause it's a long, long journey
Till I feel that I am worth the price
You paid for me on calvary
Beneath those stormy skies
maybe i'm still a young christian, but at times, i still feel so useless and worthless n not living as King n Priest that He has called INTO me. sometimes, i go back to e state of worthless ME, n i stay n dwell there. n recently, even living in victory outwardly, my spiritual walk has turned slightly in tat direction again. i keep thinking tat i'm useless, i'm worthless, i'm soooo... imbecilelic. but even in this 'small' aspect(small as to Him, this was e first thing tat He solved for us when we received Him, He resurrected tat dead spirit in us. hallelujah), He din fail to get me back quickly, n at no work on my part. He's tat loving.
those words u see above, e 'till i feel that I'm worth the price' part, stuck out at me so much. and His love just wun stop flowing n filling till I was so satisfied. that I was assured. till I know that I know that I know, that I Am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, that I Am the beloved of the Lord, who remembers not my iniquities but His sacrifice on the calvary.
the price that was paid by Him, no matter the prize.
and now I'm beginning to see, what a prized possession I Am to Him.
*tears and smiles are a blessed combi. it feels like the salted-butterfly buns. salted sweetness.
