Back to battle

Lately that's how it's seemed
I remember a time in my life when I felt overwhelmed
thinking that I was too involved in ministry

Granted I was doing a lot of stuff

The problem was never the stuff that I was doing
The problem was where my heart and mind where when I was doing so much
I can remember the joy that these things brought me when I was focused
Focused on the bigger picture

Lately my focus has slowly gotten back toward the big picture
here's what I know about the big picture
It's so big that I cannot grasp it fully,
but I have a huge part to play in it

God has shown me adventure in the past few weeks
I've been helping out with 1st Priority Washington High school
I missed it this past week and it broke my heart to have to
I'm looking forward to seeing what God does with us

I realize that God has more for me than just helping out at our youth group
on wednesdays and the band on sunday mornings sometimes
there's so much more out there that God has for me
not that I'm not blessed by those things

Because those things are such a blessing on my life
there's just more blessings to be had
more battles to be won

there's just so much more to see than
wednesdays and sundays could ever hold
I'm looking forward to what He does with me at my job
what He does with me at my school
what He does with me in my home

there's much to be done
much God to be experienced
much war and adventure to be had

there's a bigger picture out there

Lord let the sight of my eyes become irrelevant
and the sight of my heart become everything
