These lyrics describe perfectly why I chose the name I did for this blog. Ever since highschool it has been impressed upon my heart that every place we are, every situation we're in, is not by happenstance, but God-ordained. To take this even further, everything that happens now is serving to prepare us for a future "time as this." Join me as this blog is a place where I hope to share my spiritual journey, creative gifts, and other special times in life with those who will come to be called friends.
Now, all I have is now
To be faithful, To be holy
And to shine, Lighting
up the darkness
Right now, I really have no choice
But to voice the
truth to the nations
A generation looking for God
For such a time as this
I was placed upon the earth
To hear the voice of God
And do His will
Whatever it is
For such a time as this
For now and all the days he gives
I am here, I am here
And I am his
For such a time as this
You--do you ever wonder why
Seems like the grass is always greener
Under everybody else's sky
But right here, right here
For this time and place
You can live a mirror of His mercy
A forgiven image of grace
For such a time as this
I was placed upon the earth
To hear the
voice of God
And do His will
Whatever it is
For such a time as this
For now and all the days he gives
I am here, I am here
And I am his
For such a time as this
Can't change what's happened till now
But we can change what will be
By living in holiness
That the world
will see Jesus
For such a time as this
I was placed upon the earth
To hear the voice of God
And do His will
Whatever it is
For such a time as this
For now and all the days he gives
I am here, I am here
And I am his
For such a time as this

ReplyDeleteHow fun to find you! (I'm assuming you found me through Krista?)
