Pruned
7 October 2023
After hearing this song from my daughter’s playlist, I could not stop playing it over and over again. Every word, so beautifully crafted, was as though God understands exactly what I am going through as I surrender to His pruning and breaking, once again.
“Tend” by Bethel Music and Emmy Rose (Part 1):
“In the landscape of my life
You don’t rush through any season
You always take Your time
A careful hand, a gentle guide
You take what’s dead away
And You prune what’s running wild
So be the gardener of my heart
Tend the soil of my soul
Break up the fallow ground
Cut back the overgrown
And I won’t shy away
I will let the branches fall
So, what You want can stay
And what You love can grow”
Prayer:
Yes Lord, break, cut and let them all fall.
So that only those parts in me you want can stay
and those parts in me you love can grow.
I will do my best to be still
and when it is done,
I will be ready for You.
