Come Home Running

Today when i went running at tasek i decided to bring my ipod with me mostly cuz i wanted to test out the earphones that came with my iphone 5 =] I put on ipod on shuffle and just ran.. While I was running Chris Tomlin's song Come Home Running started to play...there is something about old school songs that just move me... the lyrics were exactly what i needed to hear.. God has such perfect timing. and such awesome ways of moving that He even can speak through the songs that come onto your ipod when it is on suffle mode! not so random is suffle mode...

I've been thinking a lot about where I am now, family, what is important to me, what my future holds, what i have done in the past and all these things, how desires of the flesh have strayed me, why things worked out the way they have, but u know I feel like I'm coming home in a sense... like being here in Brunei is like my own revival, last few months stripped away from my own desires to God's way of making me rediscover Him and His call. I know i'm definitely a work in progress. Yet i still can come as I am...I know there are still great things in store for me and I know that what i thought was good for me God has something far better planned. I just need to wrap my head around that and stop being so stubborn. I'm still in the process of letting go it is taking one finger at a time.

Come Home Running
Oh heart of mine, why must you stray?
From one so fair you run away
And one more time you have to pay
The heaviness of needless shame

Oh heart of mine, come back home
You've been too long out on your own
And He's been there all along
Watching for you down the road

So come home running
His arms are open wide
His name is Jesus
He understands
He is the answer
You are looking for
So come home running
Just as you are

Oh child of God so dearly loved
And ransomed by the Savior's blood
And called by name, daughter and son
Wrapped in the robe of righteousness
