I Will Waste My Life

God is drawing us... He is wooing us...
He is calling us, even as a magnet calls to metal filings, He is drawing out
of us all the impurities, and bringing forth what He has placed inside of us.

Some will say the cost is Too High to be sold out.
I say the cost is Too High NOT TO.

Total abandonment at His Feet. Total sell out to the Cross. Oh yes,I made Him Lord a long time ago...but the more I serve Him, the more I love Him, the more I know of Him, the more I see that there is still too much of me.

I will waste my life in pursuit of all of You Jesus! Come take all of me.


I will waste my life,
I'll be tested and tried.
With no regrets inside of me,
Just to find I'm at your feet,
Let me find I'm at your feet.

I leave my father's house, and
I leave my Mother.
I leave all I have known, and
I'll have no other.

For I am in love with you,
and there is no cost.
I am in love with you,
and there is no loss.
I am in love with you,
I want to take your name.
I am in love with you,
I want to cling to you, Jesus,
Just let me cling to you, Jesus.

I say goodbye to my father, my mother,
I turn my back on every other lover, and I
Press on, yes I press on.
I say goodbye to my father, my mother,
I turn my back on every other lover, and I press on, yes I press on.

For I am in love with you,
and there is no cost.
I am in love with you,
and there is no loss.
I am in love with you,
I want to take your name.
I am in love with you,
I want to cling to you, Jesus,
just let me cling to you, Jesus,
I want to cling to you...

Drawn to the Light of His Countenance

Guest Post by Annetta Lee, Oklahoma

The Lord has been speaking to me about Polishing the Shine. He gave me a word last week about that ( which I've included a brief of it here) and then brought forth this word today. I pray that you will be encouraged and blessed. "Netta

The Lord would say to brush off the dust and cobwebs and polish the shine of My glory. Have you not discerned the body...that I have pressed My glory into each one. Life had caused it to lie dormant, but I say unto you, Polish the Shine that I might be glorified.

Like the pull of a magnet upon metal fragments, I will draw forth My glory into manifestation, says the most high God. As I cause the light of My face to shine upon you, surrender your will to Mine. I will then draw forth the glory I deposited within you, causing it to rise to the surface.

You will sense the snap as it connects in the inner man. You will sense and as you yield to the work that I am doing, you will indeed rise and shine.

Yes, I am gently wooing the light of My glory to shine forth through you in this hour, says the Lord. Arise, shine, for your light has come. And the glory of the Lord rises upon you.

John 6:44
"No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day. (It is the Father who draws)

Psalm 4:6
Many are asking, "Who can show us any good?" Let the light of your face shine upon us, O LORD. (It is the Father who will shine the light of His face upon us.)

Isaiah 60:1-3
Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you. ² See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the LORD rises upon you and his glory appears over you. ³ Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn. (It is the Father who will cause the magnetic pulling forth of the glory He placed within us)

Draw = Strong’s Concordance ( Gk-helkū – to draw by inward power, lead, impel)
