Reaching for You

I heard  this song today and it reflects my heart. I desire for my heart to know Him and for my life to serve Him! What a powerful thought. When we see life through His eyes, it really changes how we see things and how we live life!

Reaching for You
by Paul Baloche and Lincoln Brewster

You created me inside Your great imagination
You're the One who gave me my first breath
You have overseen my life and brought me to redemption
And I know that You're not finished with me yet

I'm reaching for You
I'm singing to You
I'm lifting my hands to praise You
I'm lifting my voice to thank You
I'm reaching for You
Jesus I need You
I'm giving my heart to know You
I'm living my life to serve You
I'm reaching for You

You're the one who spoke the Word of life to light my darkness
You opened up my eyes 'til I could see
Jesus You have promised to complete the work You started
Faithful to fulfill Your grace in me

Pour out Your love from heaven
Fill me until I overflow Lord I want more
Reach down Your hands from heaven
Pull me closer than ever before Lord I want more
Pour out Your love from heaven
Fill me until I overflow 'cause I want more
Reach down Your hands from heaven
Pull me closer than ever before Lord I want more

Oh I'm reaching
God I'm reaching for You

As I read through the words again; I started to think of my life on a daily basis. What am I really reaching out for through the things I do? What do my children see me reaching out to? What message am I sending them? Am I leading them to reach out to Jesus through the way I live my life. My life says more than the words that I say. OR am I teaching them to reach out toward things of this world that will soon fade away. Just a thought. WOW! I desire to see my children love God passionately and pursue His Way over any other.
