All this pain
I wonder if I’ll ever find my way
I wonder if my life could really change at all
All this earth
Could all that is lost ever be found
Could a garden come up from this ground at all
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
All around
Hope is springing up from this old ground
Out of chaos life is being found in You
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
You make me new, You are making me new
You make me new, You are making me new
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
I know that when you are saved you die to your sins and are "born again". I've been told this my entire life. First of all, I think I have done a crappy job of being renewed into the person the Lord desires me to be. I know that I am constantly growing and I pray that I never go back to the person I was 4 years ago. Shoot, I pray I never go back to the person I was a week ago. I hope I am constantly growing. I hope I am constantly changing. I hope I am on the track to becoming the woman of God I was designed to be. Second of all, it is difficult for me to look at the sin in my life and see myself as a beautiful creation God made. In the song it says, "You make beautiful things out of the dust". How does the Lord allow a garden to grow from the dust that I am? It's a question I have yet to figure out, but I am praying that the Lord changes me. I am praying that the Lord hears my desire to be selfless, gentle, loving, forgiving, joyful. I am praying that the Lord can make a garden grow from this dust.
