Happy Monday! It's time to share some tunes again.
As some of you know, I'm usually deep in thought when I'm running. It's me, my music and God. It was no different this past Saturday afternoon as I journeyed down the road.
"Empty Me" by Jeremy Camp began to play on my iPod and I didn't even notice the five deer grazing in the grass just a few feet from where I was running. As I looked up, their presence and their close proximity surprised me. My presence seemed to surprise them as well. The six of us jumped in unison!
I stopped running for a moment and we stared at one another. Finally, one by one, they disappeared into the woods.
Deer-sightings always make my runs that much more enjoyable.
So, in honor of the One who enables us to stand on the heights, I thought I would share the song that was filling my ears when I encountered these beautiful creatures.
He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on the heights. (Psalm 18:33)
As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God. (Psalm 42:1 NLT)
Now, it's your turn! What song has been on your lips and in your heart lately? I would love for you to leave a link to the song in the comments section below. Who knows, it just might make another heart dance today!
Eileen,
ReplyDeleteI heard this song over the weekend and wrote it down, on the back of a Walmart receipt, to share this morning, of course can't find my receipt but the song was on the radio when I flipped it on this morning!
One Sonic Society, Forever Rain.

Happy Monday! I'd like to share my song via my blog - http://dailyswim.blogspot.com. The song is "I Know Who Holds Tomorrow". Thanks for letting me share.
ReplyDeleteSo you know what I'm doing on my lunch break? Listening to all your great song choices! I'm loving them too. :) I've discovered some new ones I will be adding to my iPod for the next time I go running with the deer! Thank so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favs!:)
ReplyDeleteI love Jeremy Camp! I must say my new fav is Matthew West's 'Strong Enough'. I don't have the link, but it'd be easy enough to find!
ReplyDeleteI've had a tune running through my head since the John Waller worship concert last week Eileen. It's called "Someone Else's Story":
