open up my eyes.
open up my heart.
open up my spirit LORD,
my spirit LORD.

open up my eyes.
open up my heart.
open up my spirit LORD,
break me LORD, tonight.

Dear Pharon,
Another good sentiment of sumission realizing, like Jacob who wrestled with God for a blessing, that God needs to Break us, before He can Make us.  Very Good,  David< !signature-->

 "Our Creativity points to a Higher Creator--we couldn't have just happened, and for what ability we may possess--to God be the glory." -dlw-

Little tune pops in the head...you could sing this one. Just like a clay pot, it needs to be molded and shaped.  To be broken down and then repaired for endurance.   Very good!

Pharon,
Very nice. Short, but to the point! Like the song from Steve Green says "Broken and spilled and used up for me" Jesus was also broken so that He could save us!
Love,
Erie

thanx so much for responding -- this poem/song came to me last night while driving home from a church revival type thing last night. i had the radio off and was singing some of the praise songs from church and when i finally could remember the words to any more of them, i just started singing, and this came is what came of it.  i didn't have any paper w/me so i just had to keep singing it until i got home! (lol)  this whole week i have just been praying that God would just break me and knock down all the walls i have put up!! please try to remember me in your prayers this week as He continues to work on me and show me all i need to get rid of. thanks again for letting me know you guys are out there  

    -- pharon --
