on my knees

this morning, i woke up with a very heavy heart and a realization on how i've let sin take so much control of my life, to the point where i became so apathetic with God. but today, this one particular song came to mind, "falling on my knees." the melody started playing in my ears (i think i've only sang this song two or three times during praise) and i just knew that what i really wanted to do was to fall on my knees and cry out to God.

for the first time in my life, i went on my knees and prayed. at first, it was hard for me to come to the Lord because i was so ashamed of how i've been living my life. it's so much easier to hide from those who we've wronged, but with God, He's always watching our every moves and hearing our every sinful thoughts. that's a bit scary, no?

but by the end of my prayer (you can also call it a plea for help), i felt really good. i'm not perfect and i'll constantly be struggling with a spiritual battle, but in the end, God always wins.

Hungry (Falling on My Knees)

hungry I come to You

for I know You satisfy

I am empty

but I know Your love does not run dry

and I wait

and I wait

so I wait for You

so I wait for You

I'm falling on my knees

offering all of me

Jesus, You're all this heart is living for

broken I run to You

for Your arms are open wide

I am weary

but I know Your touch restores my life

so I'll wait for You

so I'll wait for you

I'm falling on my knees

offering all of me

Jesus, You're all this heart is living for

Oh, I'm falling on my knees

offering all of me

Jesus, You're all this heart is living for

so I wait for you

so I wait for you

so I wait for you

hungry I come to You,

for I know You satisfy.
