Satisfy

It's been a while, huh?

Let me just start this off by saying that God is so incredible! He has been teaching me so much lately. 

I feel like this overwhelming passion to know Christ more has taken over me like never before. God has really been growing me. Over the past few months I had gotten into this rut. I felt so disconnected with God. After a while of being that way, it became a real struggle for me to want to be in his word. There was one night at Fusion where I just prayed for more of a hunger to be in his word. That next day I opened my Bible and started reading in Romans. The whole chapter was talking about being dead to sin and alive in Christ. I started to realize that I had some cleaning up to do. Big or small, it doesn't matter. It all creeps into our lives and a lot of the time you don't even realize it. This song I have below is by one of the greatest bands ever. The song is just a conversation between you and Jesus.. just asking him to satisfy you. When I feel tempted, this is the song I play. Read the lyrics, look them up on itunes... Be blessed!




Tenth Avenue North - Satisfy


Before the sun has touched the sky

Colors bursting from Your eyes

Before the flood of the morning light

Before the earth has felt Your heat

Before I stand up to my feet

Before I begin to feel this weak


Satisfy me Lord, oh oh

Satisfy me Lord, oh oh

I'm begging You, to help me see

You're all I want, You're all I need

Oh, satisfy me Lord


When the day is closing in

Like the stars in the night I am falling

Into the pull of the earth and it's affection

In me, oh lord, can you create

A pure heart cuz I'm afraid

That I just might run back to the things I hate


Satisfy me Lord, oh oh

Satisfy me Lord, oh oh

Yeah, I'm begging You, to help me see

You're all I want, You're all I need

Oh, satisfy me Lord


You're beautiful, You're beautiful

You're more than all this world can give

You're beautiful, You're beautiful

You're love is all I need to live

You're beautiful, You're beautiful

You're more than all this world can give

You're beautiful, more beautiful

You're love is all I need to live
