Over And Over

Over And Over Again

Whatever I hear you say I’ll do
Whatever you want I want it too
Whatever you say, whatever you want, I live for you
Where ever I run I run to you
Where ever you lead I’m going to
Where ever I go, where ever you are, I live for you

And I, give myself away, every single day
Over and over again
You’re the only thing that’s true, I Give myself to you
Over and over again

There are so many ways to say,The one thing I feel today
All I want, is all you want, I live for you

And I, give myself away, every single day
Over and over again
You’re the only thing that’s true, I give myself to you
Over and over again


©Tree63 – The Answer To The Question


Those who know me know I love music. It’s one of the ways I can express myself, not only to others, but to the Lord as well.

Happiness... or Joy ?

"That My joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full." John 15:11


There have been a couple of occasions in the last year or so where people have asked me “Are you happy?” or “How happy are you?” or they have simply stated that “you look so much happier”. The statement given to me if perfectly fine and I usually say something like “Praise the Lord”. But when the question is asked I seem to get stuck for words. I try to tell them that I’m not just happy, that it’s much more than that. The word happy just doesn’t describe it. And I haven’t really been able to describe it.

Well, as I’ve been reading Oswald Chambers works (He seems to be able to describe things with wonderful beauty) the Lord has been using him to help me give words to my thoughts or ponderings.

Chambers once said that it is an insult to use the word happiness in connection with Jesus Christ. The joy of Jesus was the absolute self-surrender and self-sacrifice of Himself to His Father, the joy of doing that which the Father sent Him to do. "I delight to do Thy will." Jesus prayed that our joy might go on fulfilling itself until it was the same joy as His.

Yes… That’s it. I’ve noticed in retrospect that since giving my life to the Lord, there has been an indescribable Joy that comes from the absolute self-surrender and self-sacrifice of myself to Jesus and the Father (which are One).

Chambers went on to say “Be rightly related to God, find your joy there, and out of you will flow rivers of living water. Be a center for Jesus Christ to pour living water through. Stop being self-conscious, stop being a sanctified prig, and live the life hid with Christ. The life that is rightly related to God is as natural as breathing wherever it goes.”

My prayer, Father, is that I am rightly related to you in everything I do and say at all times. That Your Joy might remain in me, and that it might be full. I pray, Jesus that I am a center for You to pour living water though, so that when someone asks me if I am happy, your joyous love will show them the truth, Your truth that is, not mine. Jesus, I ask this in your precious name. Amen.
