Carried Away - Daniel Thornton

I'm carried away
by this river of grace
Accepted and loved
forever, always
And words can't describe
this hope I now know
Except it's all Christ
all of it Christ

In You, Jesus
And You in me
In You, Jesus
And You in me

I'm carried away by Your love
I'm carried away by Your love
I'm carried away by Your love
in this ocean of Grace

This song was written by one of our worship leaders at church. I'll have to admit, the first time I heard it, I thought it was nice, but that was all. But once you actually worship with it it makes so much of a difference. The biggest question I find myself asking is... "Do you allow yourself to be carried away by His love?" His love is so big and so powerful that we can be carried away in it. When we allow ourselves to be in Him and Him in us, His love overflows and over powers all that we know. We can't help but get lost in it. Sometimes all we need to to allow ourselves to get lost in it and let ourselves be carried away. Carried away from the fear, from the pain, from the hurt in our lives. Allow ourselves to be carried away by His love and grace and let Him take us to where He wants us to be. In His Kingdom!

Thankful for: My dad

Today was fathers day so in going along with that I am thankful for my earthly father. He is a great man and although he does not yet know God, he raised me up to be a great strong woman. My prayer for him is that he gets to know the love and acceptance that I have found in Jesus.
