I Will Go



~Starfield, "I Will Go"

I just stumbled on this song, and it really speaks to how I want my response to be to God's call to be a healer in this world. I often times swing back and forth about how involved God wants me to be in helping the poor and the outcasts.. but I think the Bible is clear: Jesus's main ministry was to the broken, the humiliated, the poor, the blind, the widowed, and the weak. Who am I to claim the resources God gave me as things I should use for only myself? That includes my time, my money, and my attention. Of course, I know that I've been unfaithful with my blessings.. this is just a cool motivating song that brings my attention to what God really wants =]. Hope it touches you!

To the desperate eyes and reaching hands
To the suffering and the need
To the ones the world has cast aside
Where you want me I will be

[Chorus:]
I will go, I will go
I will go, Lord send me
To the world, To the lost
To the poor and hungry
Take everything I am
I'm clay within your hands
I will go, I will go, send me

Let me not be blind with privilege
Give me eyes to see the pain
Let the blessing You've poured out on me
Not be spent on me in vain
Let this life be used for change

I wanna live for you
Go where you lead me
I wanna follow you

Send me! [4x]

we crown You!



I've been wanting to share this song for the longest time. I love this song!!! I like the idea of crowning God as our king...when i think about it, I am at peace knowing that this world is in good hands. It's not just "me," but it's "we." As followers of Christ, we want Him at the throne. I feel like I am part of something bigger and that I am not alone in this. It's pretty straightforward and I thought about what I would say about it, but now I feel like I overdid the thinking part so yeah...I will just share it as it is..... enjoy! xD
