I’ve been humming this song a lot recently. It’s called move your heart by maverick city music. It’s probably my new favorite worship song.
Some of the lyrics go like this:
I just wanna move Your heart
It’s all I wanna do
I just wanna stand in awe
And pour my love on You
No matter how much the cost
I freely give it all to You
All to You
I just wanna move Your heart
Get caught within Your gaze
Right here in Your presence, God
Is where I wanna stay
Oh, just to dwell in Your house
Waste my hours and my days on You
Just on You
So is it a fragrance?
Then I pour my oil out
Is it a life laid down?
Then here I give my vows
Is it a song I sing?
Then here’s every melody
Just tell me what moves You
Tell me what moves You
For ministry lately we’ve gotten to do a few church services, mainly with the police force here in Chichicastenango. I have the privilege of serving with some amazingly, talented people. They have such God given gifts of speaking and singing. For a majority of the services I sat in the back praying over the people there, my teammates who were sharing, and for the presents of the Lord to be evident in big ways.
I’ve learned to more deeply value the power of intercession but, there was a point where I struggled with this being what I was doing. I felt like I needed to be more or do more. “What do I look like to everyone? What do people think of me? Especially since I’m supposed to be a team leader…Do they think I’m just lazy? Will they think I’m not gifted enough?”
Then I realized, to be blunt, I don’t really care. I don’t care what anyone thinks of me. I just want to move the Lords heart. That’s all.
I used to dream of being a speaker all around the world at big conventions. Don’t get me wrong I still think that would be pretty stinking cool but, it just doesn’t seem as important to me as it used to. All I want to do is move the Lord’s heart and whatever that looks like is between me and Him. I think it looks different every day. I have to meet Him every day to ask “how can I move your heart today?” One day It’s simply loving a friend well by buying them a coffee and maybe another day it is getting to do something like speak at Liberty University’s convocation.
But If all I ever do is nameless and faceless, if I never receive any fame or glory — ok. I don’t want glory here on earth from man, I want glory in heaven, I want my heavenly father to be proud of me. No matter how much it cost because that is all that truly matters. Just tell me what moves you God.
Just keep on moving the Lord’s heart, Breanne.
Sweet girl, Satan always manages to dangle a shiny object to distract us from doing what “moves God’s heart.” You’re sensitive to the voice and heartbeat of God…just “Be still…and know.” Love you!
