just not feeling it..

I woke up this morning wanting to "feel it". A term I call the feeling of the emotion when the presence of God is evident. Its cold in the room and I have much to do for a Saturday that I would typically spend resting and enjoying. I'm in a strange place and out of sorts, so that might effect my emotions, maybe? I cranked up some Third Day as loud as this silly laptop will play it but it's enough to allow me to remember whose child I am and to find peace in an un-peaceful place.
I am posting the words to my song I am singing below:


Magnificent Holy Father
I stand in awe of all I see
Of all the things You have created
But still You choose to think of me

Who am I that You should suffer
Your very life to set me free
The only thing that I can give You
Is the life You gave to me

This is my offering, dear Lord
This is my offering to You, God
And I will give You my life
For it’s all I have to give
Because You gave Your life for me

I stand before You at this altar
So many have given You more
I may not have much I can offer
Yet what I have is truly Yours

This is my offering

Not sure if you are feeling it today... I'm certainly not, but I can tell you on days like this I find comfort from words like this..
God didn't call us to be emotional everyday and to "feel it" all the time, but he did ask us to follow him.. no matter what the mood.. I am up, I have my coffee and I am following him. I am no longer following him because its "the right thing to do" I follow him out of a passion that he placed in me. A passion of grace. His acceptance of me because of him in spite of me. Peace to you this day as we walk with God. ; )
