The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands. (Psalm 138:8, ESV)

Today I am excited, overwhelmed and nervous. It’s taken ten years for today to arrive. I can’t even begin to comprehend God’s goodness in creating this day. His unconditional love washes over me anew today.

Ten years ago God placed a dream inside of me to write and sing. I’ve had glimpses of that dream. But mostly it’s been distant, until last year, when I gave it up completely. I was content to write here on my blog.

But when God births a dream, He shapes and molds it, and fulfills it in His time. It may not look the way we imagine or plan. Today is proof.

Today begins the recording process for the music project He unexpectedly placed in my hands. I am almost speechless over how God is willing to use the mess of my life for my good and His glory.

It’s a surreal feeling to know that later today I’ll be sitting in a studio listening to the musicians record tracks to three songs. And not just any songs, but songs that speak my heart: to see people delivered…to be captured and freed by Love and set in a place where He makes all things new.

More than any other emotion I feel today, I am most grateful that God’s steadfast love endures forever, and He has not forsaken the work of His hands in my life.
