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]

[Please] Reign in Us
Hey peeps!! I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted any songs.. but here we go again, and I really hope ya'll will be blessed =]. This song is another worship song, written and performed by Starfield, titled "Reign in Us"
To be very honest, I don't really know what to type up.. but I know a few things.
The chorus really echos what I really desire in my heart. "Oh, Great and Mighty One, with one desire we come: That You would reign, that you would reign in us!" I love singing this, because in my own life, I realize all these areas where I don't let God reign. When I think of the word "reign", I think of rule; I think of sovereignty (haha, even bigger/vaguer words xD). Basically, I think of God being in complete control. So I ask myself, "God, could you please reign in me?" I am a very forgetful/sway-ey person, prone to wander in mind and heart and emotion. With all the times that I forget that I'm living for God and not myself, I feel the need to plead with my soul and cry to God that He would reign in my life. All of my selfish thoughts, wondering about how MY name will be glorified and not His.. I'm in such desperately need of His touch.
The last part really stuck out to me when I first sung it. Reminding me that this purification, this commitment to God, is not just for myself. God intends for us to be a light into this world and show how awesome He is! It's all about the glory of God. So I'm still praying to God this prayer for myself and for us:
So reign, please reign in us..
come purify our lives, we need Your touch
come cleanse us like a flood, and send us out
so the world may know You reign,
You reign in us..

Remain
Hi guys! Haven't really posted for...months x_x. so yeahs, remember that this site still is open for any/all sharing =].
"Remain" ~Starfield
I don't have too much too deep at the moment about this song, but every time I listen to this song, my heart is refocused back onto our God who is SO faithful, and whose power, justice, love NEVER changes. "When all else fades"; when all our intellect fails us, when we feel completely alone, when nothing seems to be going right... "You remain!" Look to the sky, and proclaim to aLL creation, "YOU are good!", "There is NONE like You!" :]..
what a glorious security we have in Jesus Christ. Amen.
Defender of this heart
You loved me from the start
You never change
Through the highs and lows
As seasons come and go
You never fail
[PreChorus:]
Day after day
Your love will remain
Faithful and true
You are good
[Chorus:]
You are God with us
You're victorious
You are strong and mighty to save
For Your word stands true
There is none like You
And when all else fades
You remain
When troubles come my way
You guide and You sustain
Lead me, I pray
Forever You will be
The great eternal King
Now and always

Shipwreck
"Shipwreck" ~Starfield
This song has so many different ways it can speak to you and me..wows. I think i shared this song with a lot of you peoples already, but here it is again :]
because of all the amazing ways i could look at this song i could make this post VERY indepth and long...but i'll let my words be few :]. lately i've been feeling kind of...less than what i wish to be. i've been looking back one or two years, and i notice how i've changed in so many different aspects; and in most of these ways, i wonder "God, how come i can't be/think/act like i had before!" in these moments though, i'm reminded of what i am: a shipwreck that tried to go his own way through the storm. now i'm asking, though i'm just a beggar, for Him to keep working on me...so that with Him in me, I could be who I'm meant to be.
really, i posted this song because i'm really curious to hear what you guys think about this song, and how it speaks to you. if you want to, look up the lyrics; they're really poetic. please comment on the song! have fun guys.

Alive in this Moment
"Alive in this Moment" ~Starfield
this is a song that i think just sounds really nice. sometimes it really has been a long time since we've just sat in that "secret place" where we would meet God and just chat and worship Him. but like a wayward son, He takes us back and reminds us of the life He's given us. for everything we go through that simply is...blah..He is there for us.
