EMPTY I COME TO YOU

I am sure if you have been reading my Digging A Well 
Facebook page over the last few weeks you will think 
I'm crazy when I say this but there have been times
that I feel so empty.  I feel so inadequate and 
so unworthy of being so very blessed by 
the Almighty God.  A few years ago I was
experiencing one of those times.  I was 
scheduled to speak at a ladies tea and 
yet I didn't hear the Lord speaking to 
me so that I could speak to the ladies.

As I begin to beg the Lord to fill me 
with the words to say, he just left me
empty.  How am I supposed to stand 
before a group of ladies and act as 
if I know what to say?  How am I 
to present the gospel of Jesus Christ 
if the very one I am going to teach 
about isn't speaking to me and 
seems to be nowhere to be found? 

As I was driving to work one 
morning and praying, my prayer
turned into a song, which became
the theme of the bible study that I 
taught and was so thankful that he
allowed me to experience that time 
with him and know that the only 
way my life could be filled with himself
was to be emptied of myself. 

As I was driving to work Friday, I was
singing this song and began to weep.
The words I wrote that day seem to be
coming to life over the last few weeks as
the Lord swings open the doors for all 
the world to know, that empty I came to 
Him and he filled me with His grace.  

We are fixing to get with a team and record
this song so we can post it on this page.
Pray the Lord pulls this song together
for His glory so that all the world
will know that it's in our emptiness
that God's glory can shine the fullest.
