Since the focus of our lives these past few weeks has not been so much what we are doing but what God is doing in us there won't be too many pictures.
It is good to be back at Whatcom Meadows, in our own home, albeit a 31 1/2 long 5th wheel with 3 sliders. Our location is among the trees, and the air is fresh, and the rhodies are blooming!
And whenever there are other people here, they are on vacation, and therefore in a rather good holiday mood. There is laughter, renewing of friendships, the smell of grilling meat, the laughter of children. The swimming pool is open too!
I always feel a little conspicuous when I head out to work in my scrubs, obviously not one of those who enjoy Whatcom Meadows as a vacation home, but rather my half of the year residence.
But this little place, fancy by our standards, a far cry from what WE call camping, is already full of memories for me. The best ones are those where I have been on my face worshipping my Father.
May I assure you, I am no super spiritual person…but there has been a lot or things happening in my heart and spirit and to fall on my face is the only way I can respond when I see what He has been doing.
That is why I want to share the following song with you. When I listen to Jesus Adrian Romero, it obviously takes a little while for me to understand what he is singing (he sings in Spanish). Then, as the understanding emerges I am struck astounded by what God is saying. Truly, many singer-songwriters are prophets, Jesus Adrian Romero has been that many time for me.
Que Seas Mi Universo by Jesus Adrian Romero
When I first began to understand this song, it broke my heart. It convicted me to the core. You will not be surprised, I hope, to know that working hard day by day, even if you are in a mountain village in Oaxaca can cause one to become a “Marta”. I have been too busy, over many months, if not years, to take the time to truly nurture the relationship that had caused me to say, “Here am I Lord, send me!”
So these past couple weeks I have been redisciplining myself in many areas. I don't look at the computer until I have spent time with the Lord, I fill my quiet with quiet, or the Word of God, reading inspiring bios of missionaries, and pursuing prayer.
And then Sunday, Scott Ramin was preaching, and what I heard is that “our zeal should consume us!” And it brought me back to this song. So I told Scott that I would copy the words, and translate them.
So now if you like you can click here to hear the song. On the side board you should see the link that you can use to watch/hear the song on UTube.
Que seas mi universo That you would be my universe
No quiero darte solo un rato de mi tiempo
I don’t want to give you just a little of my time
No quiero separarte un día solamente
I don’t want to separate just one day for you
Que seas mi universo but that you be my universe
No quiero darte mis palabras como gotas
I don’t want to give you my words like drops
Quiero un diluvio de alabanzas en mi boca
I want a flood of praise from my mouth
Que seas mi universo That you would be my universe
Que seas todo lo que siento y lo que pienso
That you be all that I feel and think
Que seas el primer aliento en la mañana
That you be the first breath in the morning
Y la luz en mi ventana
And the light in my window
Que seas mi universo That you be my universe
Que llenes cada uno de mis pensamientos
That you fill every on of my thoughts
Que tu presencia y tu poder sean mi alimento
That your presence and power would be my food
Oh Jesús es mi deseo.. Oh Jesus, is my desire.
Que seas mi universo That you would be my universe
No quiero darte solo parte de mis años
I don’t want to give only part of my years
Te quiero dueño de mi tiempo y de mi espacio
I want you to be owner of my time and space
Que seas mi universo That you would be my universe
No quiero hacer mi voluntad, quiero agradarte
I don’t want to do my own will, I want to please you
Y cada sueño que hay en mi quiero entregarte
And every dream I have I want to submit to you
Que seas mi universo
That's all for now...
