Amazed..

There are days when your touch seems so fresh and vibrant,
others when i barely feel at all.
The questioning heart of a distant child
wonders where are you father?
The never changing answer is that you are right here,
so the question instead is where ,My Lord, am I?
When asked why the excitement has fled,
why the amazement has slipped away,
your ever sweet response remains the same.
"I do what I have always done, for I am who I am.
The problem is not what I do but rather what you will receive,
and that you My child have ceased to be amazed.
Search your heart, and then search mine
and see what you discover.
The heart of a child that needs a Father
and the heart of a Father that beats for His child."




~This morning Joyce Meyer said something that truly spoke to my heart. She mentioned that she asked God once why He didn't amaze her anymore. His response was that He has not stopped doing what He did before, but that she was no longer amazed by it. It is so true. I began thinking about my life and how sometimes I know without a doubt that God is using me...I know He has anointed me, or that He has given me a word. But I have become used to it. I am no longer amazed at everything that He does for me. How disappointing. I need to be looking for His touch and be amazed at everyday.
