an audience of One.

Tonight at church I had an amazing encounter with Jesus :-) Words cannot express the adoration and fulfillment that comes when He invades the depths of my heart. Below are the lyrics to one of the songs we sang tonight during worship. I wish there was a good video of it to be able to hear it, but I haven't been able to find one...

"An Audience of One"
The Alternative

I set this time aside
To sing of a love on fire
As I worship You my God

Distraction fades away
And I find clarity
As I enter Your presence

All my love,
All my life
For You
For You

I sing this song for an audience of One
Search my heart
Find it after Yours
Let my life bless You Lord
Oh my soul, oh my soul

No other can take
Can take Your highest place
You are higher than all things
What love is meant to be
is now found in me
As my heart touches Yours

All my love,
All my life
For You
For You

And I sing this song for an audience of One
Search my heart
And find it after Yours
Let my life bless You Lord
Oh my soul, oh my soul

With all I am
I'll let my heart do what words can't
I want You more than anything
I love You more than words could speak
Jesus (x's 2)

I sing this song for an audience of One
Search my heart
And find it after Yours
Let my life bless You Lord
Oh my soul, oh my soul

And I sing this song for an audience of One
Search my heart
And find it after Yours
Let my life bless You Lord
Oh my soul, (sing again now)

I sing this song for an audience of One
Search my heart
And find it after Yours
Let my life bless You Lord
Oh my soul, oh my soul, ooohhh

oohhh, oohh my soul

The dancing and prophetic art during the worship blesses my heart SO much! ...and tonight it rocked me to my core! There was so much power behind it that I found my eyes constantly filling with tears....

I'm so thankful for my church-- it's one of the only places where I feel "home" here...especially being away from close friends and family. Loneliness has really set in recently, but tonight I felt like the Lord saying He brought me to this place to do something in me that couldn't have been done in the comfortable place. I feel like He's stretching me and growing me and equipping me to send me out. Thank You, Jesus for the way you cater to my heart-- how You meet every need and then some! You are truly BEAUTIFUL, WORTHY and HOLY! ...saying "so long" to the chains of my "mundane" life and choosing to say "YES!!!" to Jesus...stepping into what is only the beginning with the Love of my Life! ...knowing this doesn't mean there won't be "tough" days, but that I am never alone; and that I was made for MORE, and will therefore belive for even GREATER!

Lord, let my life bring you GLORY!

I'm excited to see what tomorrow will bring!
