--

I hear the Savior say, “Thy strength indeed is small; 
Child of weakness, watch and pray, 
Find in Me thine all in all.”
{Jesus paid it all}

how many times have i sung this song? so many.
i can sing it with my eyes closed...never looking at the words.

these are the first 2 lines of the song.
it seems like in most songs, the words that REALLY cut deep are later...or in the chorus.

this morning, when this song started, these first 2 lines cut STRAIGHT to my heart.
my weary, broken, weak heart.

my strength is so small.
i am so weak.
but i can pray.
and He IS my all in all.

watching to see what HE will do!

oh, how i needed that encouragement to lift my heart up!

but they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles they shall run and not be weary they shall walk and not faint.

keep waiting on Him.
