Called Me Higher Song

Called Me Higher by All Sons and Daughters

The above song in my life right now :) Lyrics:

I could just sit
I could just sit and wait for all Your goodness
Hope to feel Your presence
And I could just stay
I could just stay right where I am and hope to feel You
Hope to feel something again

And I could hold on
I could hold on to who I am and never let You
Change me from the inside
And I could be safe
I could be safe here in Your arms and never leave home
Never let these walls down

But You have called me higher
You have called me deeper
And I'll go where You will lead me Lord
You have called me higher
You have called me deeper
And I'll go where You lead me Lord
Where You lead me
Where You lead me Lord

And I could hold on
I could hold on to who I am and never let You
Change me from the inside
And I could be safe
I could be safe here in Your arms and never leave home
Never let these walls down

But You have called me higher
You have called me deeper
And I'll go where You will lead me Lord
You have called me higher
You have called me deeper
And I'll go where You lead me Lord
Where You lead me

And I will be Yours, oh
I will be Yours for all my life

And I will be Yours, oh
I will be Yours for all my life

And I will be Yours, oh
I will be Yours for all my life
So let Your mercy

And I will be Yours, oh
I will be Yours for all my life
So let Your mercy light the path before me

Cause You have called me higher
You have called me deeper
And I'll go where You will lead me Lord

Where You lead me
Where You lead me Lord

Short and Sweet... unlike this winter

Went on a very cold walk today at lunch- I love winter and I would rather be cold than hot but it is about time to warm up.  I want to see flowers growing and be able to walk outside and wear my dresses  (which I have way too many of, I know).  

As so many are looking forward to warmer weather and spring, it was a reminder to me today that even when we go through the cold and hard times in our lives... when there seems to be hope it will end and it snows again- and a polar vortex blows through- there is still hope.  There will be a spring time and a time of new life and growth and it will be beautiful and even more greatly appreciated than the spring after a mild winter.  Keep weathering the cold and hard- there is hope, even if you don't know when it will come!
