Don't Look At Me

 " Don't look at me if your looking for perfection. Don't look at me I will only let you down but I will do my best to point you  in the right direction..." Stacie Orrico


I don't know how many of your remember that song " Don't Look At Me ", but I remember it being one of my favorite songs in middle school and now that I am older I see so much truth in the song. This isn't a  song I really listen to any more but  as I think about the words I am coming to own I will let people down who are   around me. I will always want to love like Jesus but I'll never be able to love as deeply as Jesus! Although I yearn to daily I can't fulfill like Him !
And so I come before you learning to accept my weaknesses because on my own I can't  live. It is now that I am also reminded that it's truly Jesus who shines in us ! At the same time I say to any one looking on the outside  you can or  have the same power Jesus  has given me!
I'm no better then any of you! I know this growing up in my faith that  watching leaders I respected that they were only who they were because they  had Jesus!
So, if you hunger for this zeal I beg you to come to Jesus because just like the lady at the well we must say to Jesus come fill my cup !( John 4) I say this also because it is Jesus who I need more then I can comprehend! I am especially learning this  in New York because  there will always be a need but only Jesus fills the cup!!

He is my lover and I am so glad He begs me to dance with Him! And it is during our dance I can feel His sweet arms around me knowing I am weak! And in my weakness I learn to surrender the things or places I can't be. Again my love will fail but God's doesn't! So though  I can't reach all I know my Jesus can and does!  And I praise my Abba for He is Holy !!
