Some thoughts on "Shadowfeet" by Brooke Fraser...


My wonderful and lovely friends,

I pray this one finds each of you richly blessed and enjoying a beautiful day! Rejoice! This is the day that the LORD has made! =D
This time, instead of sharing my own words, I'll be sharing the words of a great godly woman that the LORD has been using to encourage me and uplift my spirit as I go through trials and hard days. This specific song has been on my mind for days and days and has been the song that I've been listening the most to lately. Every single time I listen to it, God allows me to grasp me more of it... lyrics so simple, but still... so profound!
As I deal with a little lack of hope brought by my own flesh or accusations and fear from me, through listening to this song I'm reminded again that I'm in the hands of Jesus and that I have no reason to fear... He's everything and His grace is more than enough for me. I'm reminded that no man has power of me, no darkness, no spiritual forces, no principalities - I belong to the LORD! I'm anointed, restored, redeemed by a wonderful Savior... so I have no reasons to fear!
This spiritual warfare that has been going on, this battle of words and thoughts - all brought by men who are not serving God but their own flesh, lost in legalism and judging others, an heresy as they make themselves worth more than God, superior to God - has already been lost by the enemy... the victory is mine already in Christ Jesus!
No reason to fear... the LORD is with me!
For the Word says:

Psalm 37:4-7 (New American Standard Bible)
4 "Delight yourself in the LORD;
And He will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the LORD,
Trust also in Him, and He will do it.
6 He will bring forth your righteousness as the light
And your judgment as the noonday.
7 Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes."

That's a promise from the LORD! He promises, He delivers! He cannot deny Himself - He is faithful... forever faithful!
Much love in Him, blessings and grace,
Helen =)

Song: Shadowfeet
(Brooke Fraser)

Walking, stumbling
On these shadowfeet
Toward home, a land that I've never seen

I am changing
Less and less asleep
Made of different stuff than when I began

And I have sensed it all along
Fast approaching is the day

[Chorus]
When the world has fallen out from under me
I'll be found in You, still standin'
When the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees
When time and space are through
I'll be found in You

There's distraction
Buzzing in my head
Saying in the shadows it's easier to stay

But I've heard rumours
Of true reality
Whispers of a well-lit way

When the world has fallen out from under me
I'll be found in You, still standin'
When the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees
When time and space are through
I'll be found in You

You make all things new
You make all things new
You make all things new
You make all things
You make all things

When the world has fallen out from under me
I'll be found in You, still standin'
When the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees
When time and space are through
I'll be found in You

When the world has fallen out from under me
I'll be found in You, still standin'
Every fear and accusation under my feet
When time and space are through
I'll be found in You
When time and space are through
I'll be found in You
When time and space are through
I'll be found in You
