His lightning strikes
Like spikes
Through the hearts
Of all who need a fresh start
Some may know and seek
Others hide behind what they speak
He shakes the nations
Nobody wakes
He destroys houses
Nobody bows down
What will it take
For those who claim
To follow Jesus
To admit their diseases
I will begin
My heart was born into sin
If I am not vigilant
I fall time and time again
Even though He catches me
I don’t want to drown in His sea
I seek His face
I state my case
Ask Him to cleanse my soul
Knowing it is by His grace and grace alone
I am free
And if I am free
Then I shall not flee
I will stand
Let the rain fall if that’s His plan
Hear the reminder
Look in the mirror
If we don’t see Him
We offer our hearts to be washed white again

The realization that instead of focusing on the sins of others, we should look within. He desires mercy and a broken, contrite heart and I want to want what He wants. Thank you.

Julie, another most blessed piece. The church is in critical need of revival. I am thankful that you are part of them that desire the same. For revival begins not out there, it begins in our hearts then as a fire it burns forth.
