stirring up deep wells.

We leave a week from Monday! I'm getting more and more excited every day. It's gonna be amazing!!

So this morning during my quiet time, I was listening to the song "Deep Cries Out" from Bethel's new live album (if you haven't heard this song, you should check it out- so fun!) And I felt like the Lord was saying this will almost be a "theme song" of sorts for our trip. Here are some of the lyrics:

I've got a river of living water, a fountain that never will run dry
It's an open Heaven You're releasing, and we will never be denied
Cause we're stirring up deep deep wells,
we're stirring up deep deep waters
We're gonna dance in the river, dance in the river
We're falling into deeper waters, calling out to You
We're walking into deeper waters, going after You

As I was listening to this song, I just started saying "more, Lord... more." And God just started to overwhelm me with His love. God has SO much for us! This week's devo reading from Matthew 7 says "how much MORE will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!" There is an abundance of good things that God has for us. All we have to do is ask.

God, we want everything You have for us! We want to know You more while we're in Europe, and we want to see others know You more, too. We pray for an open Heaven over Berlin!
