Come Away

Come away with me
Come away with Me
It’s never too late
It’s not too late for you
I have a plan for you
It’s gonna be wild it’s gonna be great it’s gonna be full of Me
Come away with Me
It’s never too late
It’s not too late for you
I have a plan for you
It’s gonna be wild it’s gonna be great it’s gonna be full of Me
Open up your hearts and let Me in

Where do you run when life seems overwhelming and out of control??
God is always wanting us to run to Him. To come away with Him from the chaos of the world and step into the peace of His Presence.

Then Jesus said,
“Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens,
and I will give you rest.
Matthew 11:28 NLT

What a comforting thought that it is never too late that the peace of the Father Who is as near as our next breath…is just a prayer away.  God wants us to open up our hearts and let Him in.

I love how the following commentary, written by Joyce Meyers for ChristianPost, talks about letting God into EVERY room of your heart.

Letting God Into Every Room of Your Heart

If we’re going to really live the Christian life, we need to decide to surrender all of our heart and let God have access to every room in our “house.” And when God asks us to surrender the things in the rooms of our heart, we need to get excited, because something greater is coming.
We need to say, “God, I give You free reign because I know You are good and You love me and wouldn’t ask me to give up something if it wasn’t for my benefit.” Jesus paid a tremendous price for us to have a joyful, peaceful life and He doesn’t want to see us miserable
Here are some “rooms” we may need to give Him access to:
The Study or the Library: Your Mind. What kind of things do you think about? The more you think of something, the more it becomes a part of you. In fact, your thoughts set the course for your life. God knows what we’re thinking, so let’s focus on things that He wants us to think-things that are noble, pure, trustworthy, admirable…(see Philippians 4:8). And remember, you can choose what you think about. So when the devil tries to interject thoughts in your mind, you don’t have to just take them.
The Dining Room: Our Desires. We need to come to the point where we can say “God, I only want what You want, and if I’m asking for something You don’t want me to have, then don’t give it to me.” Our desires can cause the biggest problems in our life-especially when someone else gets something we want. But God wants us to be happy for others when they are blessed and trust that He’ll do what is best for us at the right time.
The Living or Family Room: Your Friends. Who are your friends? What do you talk about when you’re with your friends? I’m talking here about the people you spend your time with and those you open your heart to. Does your conversation put a smile on God’s face…or does it grieve Him? Get together with people who love the Word of God and be creative with how you help others. Because there’s one thing for sure: when you get your mind off yourself and focus on blessing someone else, you’ll get happier than you’ve ever been!
The Workroom: Your Legacy. Are you bearing good fruit…or are you just taking up space? I encourage you to work with excellence and integrity. When you choose not to gossip at work, waste company time or participate in things that wouldn’t please Him, then you honor God. And when you honor God, then He will honor you. Remember: We need to do what’s right because it’s right, even when no one’s looking…because God is always with us.
The Recreation Room: Your Entertainment. Do you let God decide what movies you watch, the music you listen to or the things you read? There is nothing wrong with having a good time, but our choices also need to honor Him. Likewise, we have to be careful about how much time we devote to entertainment. When it takes a stronger priority in our life than it should, there’s a problem. It’s not that you can’t have any fun; you just need to choose what is best for you and is pleasing to God.
The Hall, Closet, Attic, Garage or Basement: Hidden Things. This is where we hide all those things we don’t think we’ll use again, but we hold on to them just in case…things like self-pity or unforgiveness. God dealt strongly with me about self-pity. But even after I officially gave it up, I put it somewhere in that back closet of my life just in case I wanted to have just one more pity party.
How about getting rid of everything that’s not pleasing to God? Only with God’s Help.
What are you holding onto that needs to go?
