Psalm 32:8 - "Lord, I Need You"

Oh my goodness....I woke up singing Chris Tomlin's "Lord, I Need You" and had to chuckle.  I need the Lord to give me physical strength in a mighty way BUT that's not the only thing I need His Strength in.  I need His Strength spiritually, mentally and emotionally today.  Today will be a great day from start to finish but it will be a long day.  I know at some point in time I have to stop and rest.  I also know He will direct my path and I must be tuned in so I hear His Voice.  I need to be able to hear when an opportunity comes my way.  I also need to hear His Voice to know when I need to rest.  I love the part "My one defense, my righteousness"....woo hoo!  "Righteousness (also called rectitude) is an important theological concept in Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism (Dharma), and Zoroastrianism. It is an attribute that implies that a person's actions are justified, and can have the connotation that the person has been "judged" or "reckoned" as leading a life that is pleasing to the god's portrayed in these belief systems."  Yes, I have been "reckoned" with!  I also know God is pleased with me but I need to stay in His Presence so I can hear His Voice.  Woo hoo!  Praise His Holy Name!  I am standing on Psalm 32:8 as I start this day.

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.

Dear Jesus,

I am so excited to see where You will guide me today.  Who will I have an opportunity to love on?  What exciting things will You put before me?  Will I see a miracle today?  Lord, I am Your servant.....do as You will...  Amen.

Verse 1:
Lord I come, I confess
Bowing here I find my rest
Without You I fall apart
You're the one that guides my heart

Chorus:
Lord, I need You, oh I need You
Every hour I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You

Verse 2:
Where sin runs deep, Your grace is more
Where grace is found is where You are
And where You are Lord I am free
Holiness is Christ in me
Yes where You are Lord I am free
Holiness is Christ in me

Bridge:
So teach my song to rise to You
When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I'll fall on You
Jesus You're my hope and stay
And when I cannot stand I'll fall on You
Jesus You're my hope and stay
