More of You; less of me.

It's been challenging here at the Bohner household. The children have had a hard time with Mommy not being here 24/7...it's been exhausting, draining and overall discouraging....I keep fighting feelings of "I can't do this," "Why did you call me to this?" "I don't know what to do....I don't have the energy to do it if I did know!"

Today I ran out to get some juice at the store and was feeling so tired, so discouraged, so empty....as I 'basked' in my emptiness I felt a small voice reminding me-the more empty I am--the more I can be filled with His power, His strength, His wisdom....less of me; more of Him.

So just like Moses who didn't think he could lead the children of Israel to the promised land--I don't think I can lead my children through life--but the cool thing is--we both serve the same God---who can touch us and give us His strength for the journey.

Holy Fire burn away,
My desire for anything
That is not of you and is of me.
I want more of you and less of me.
Holy Fire burn away,
My desire for anything
That is not of you and is of me,
I want more of you and less of me, yeah.
Empty me,
Empty me, yeah,
Fill, won’t you fill me,
With you, with you, yeah.
