The dream is fading, now I’m staring at the door
I know its over ‘cause my feet have hit the cold floor
Check my reflection, I ain’t feelin’ what I see
It’s no mystery
Whatever happened to a passion I could live for
What became of the flame that made me feel more
And when did I forget that…
I was made to love You
I was made to find You
I was made just for You
Made to adore You
I was made to love
And be loved by You
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And You said You’d keep me
Never would You leave me
I was made to love
and be loved by You
The dream’s alive with my eyes opened wide
Back in the ring You’ve got me swinging for the grand prize
I feel the haters spittin’ vapors on my dreams
But I still believe
I’m reachin’ out, reachin’ up, reachin’ over
I feel a breeze cover me called Jehovah
And, Daddy, I’m on my way
‘Cause I was made to love…
Anything I would give up for You
Everything, I’d give it all away

We were all made by the Creator with a longing—a deep desire—that only God can fill.
For I satisfy the weary ones and refresh everyone who languishes.
Jeremiah 31:25
Take a listen to what Pastor Rick Warren shares about the longing we have for our God:
The Bible tells us that there is a God-shaped vacuum in our hearts. There is a hole in our hearts that only God can fill. We were made to be connected to our Creator. We were made to know Him and to be plugged into His power.
Your heart is designed to contain God. God wants to live inside of you but when your life is filled with other things, there’s no room in your heart for God. This means you’re not plugged into God’s power and that’s why you’re tired all the time. And that’s why you’re stressed out all the time and that’s why you worry all the time.

Heavenly Father, Thank You that when we call out, You, Jehovah are on Your way to meet us right where we are at…filling the longing that only You can fill. In Jesus’ name, AMEN!!!
I love this song, Kim, and haven’t sung it in awhile. Thank you for sharing it today. I love God’s promise in Jeremiah 31:25!
Truly, it has always been God’s plan for us to be in close relationship with Him, to be a part of His family. I’m so thankful that He is always waiting on us to reach out to Him.
