Hurricane

Shortly before leaving SG, after all the madness of packing, leaving our marital home and sending things to be shipped, that anxiety of leaving all that is safe and familiar suddenly becomes more obvious to us both. Many "what-ifs" flood our mind. It hit us real bad. It made us see how weak we really were inside and what false securities we were hiding ourselves in. However, it sent us running to the only One we know who never changes and is certain. He knows how insecure we really are and He also knows how to expose us and make us see that He is truly all we need. 

This song by Jimmy Needham "Hurricane" is the prayer we need:

I have built a city here
Half with pride and half with fear
Just wanted a safer place to hide
I don't want to be safe tonight

I need you like a hurricane
Thunder crashing wind and rain
To tear my walls down
I'm only yours now
I need you like a burning flame
A wild fire untamed
To burn these walls down
I'm only yours now
I'm only yours now

I am yours and you are mine
You know far better than I
And if destructions what I need
Then I'll receive it lord from thee
Yes I'll receive it lord from thee

I need you like a hurricane
Thunder crashing wind and rain
To tear my walls down
I'm only yours now
I need you like a burning flame
A wild fire untamed
To burn these walls down
I'm only yours now
I'm only yours now

And it's your eye in the storm
Watching over me
And it's your eye in the storm
Wanting only good for me
And if you are the war
Let me be the casualty
Till I'm yours alone
I am only yours
I am yours alone lord

I need you like a hurricane
Thunder crashing wind and rain
To tear my walls down
I'm only yours now
I need you like a burning flame
A wild fire untamed
To burn these walls down
I'm only yours now
I'm only yours now
