Make me broken
So I can be healed
‘Cause I’m so calloused
And now I can’t feel
I want to run to You
With heart wide open
Make me broken

Make me empty
So I can be filled
‘Cause I’m still holding
Onto my will
And I’m completed
When You are with me
Make me empty

‘Til You are my one desire
‘Til You are my one true love
‘Til You are my breath, my everything
Lord, please keep making me

Make me lonely
So I can be Yours
‘Til I want no one
More than You, Lord
‘Cause in the darkness
I know You will hold me
Make me lonely

Watching the video, and listening to the song, I am struck with how real this is for me.  I have become calloused in some areas of my life as a way of protecting myself.  I want to feel God’s Presence in all areas of my life, but sometimes it gets busy, messy…and just hard.

God wants us to go to Him before we call a girlfriend or to someone else that we trust.  We can ask God to help us with anything that we are struggling with and He is faithful to answer when we ask.  He knows better what our request and underlying motives are, so He is much better to give an answer.

Today, let this be our prayer to our God and Father in heaven.

Psalm 150

Praise the Lord.
Praise God in His Sanctuary; praise Him in His mighty heavens.
Praise Him for His acts of power; praise Him for His surpassing greatness.
Praise Him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise Him with the harp and lyre,
Praise Him with timbrel and dancing, praise Him with the strings and pipe,
Praise Him with the clash of cymbals, praise Him with resounding cymbals.
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.

In Jesus’ name, Amen!
