Strength in HIS REFUGE

Where can I go from Your Presence
Under your wings I take REFUGE
Your Spirit lives within my heart
I know we'll never be APART

Every day I draw closer to you Lord
I long to see your FACE
and hide in Your EMBRACE
All my life
Dwelling in your HOLY PLACE
My heart o Lord you've changed
I'll never be the same

This song - "Refuge City" brings out the intimacy that you can have with God.

Let me not ever be cast from your presence o God
Instead, because we'll never be apart,
Draw me closer and closer to you
Draw me into your refuge
Let me hide under your wings
Grant me the desire to just want to be in your embrace
God when I come to hide in you
Change me, that I can face life with your STRENGTH, COURAGE
God whatever that needs to change
Let your Spirit do that work
Humble me, strip me to the point of nothing - where I can't even rely on my capabilities
Let it not be my confidence
Let it not be my strength
Let it not be my skills
Let it not be my wisdom/knowledge
But let it be THE SPIRIT OF GOD
Let it be by the POWER OF GOD
Draw me closer into your refuge
It is in your refuge that we can find CONFIDENCE, STRENGTH, WISDOM, ANOINTING;
Because God, it is YOU.

God, I believe that you are my all, all of my portion belongs to you.

When you go through those moments where you just feel that you can't do it anymore, don't question where God is, but rather, come into the embrace of God, and rely on Him. Those moments of helplessness, is for us to experience the goodness and grace of God. Don't let those moments go, but take heart, and choose to enter into the presence of God.

That's me.............I am choosing to RUN into my Father's embrace. Would you as well
