From where has this come?

Where has this life come from?
This hope?
This overwhelming hunger?
I'm not satisfied... but increasingly thirsty.
When will i ever get enough?

Where has this confidence come from?
This security?
This amazing sense of rightness?
I know my Father's love for me
How did I ever move into this?

Where has this love come from?
This heart?
This overflowing goodness?
I want to pour into people!
What has come over me?

Where has this power come from?
This ability?
This increasing outpouring of grace?
I am able to hear his voice!
How did I ever get on without this?

Where have my fears gone?
my pain?
my sense of despair and death?
They no longer torment me from the shadows
How have I been able to leave them behind?

God is doing something new in me... behold it is springing forth! He is bringing rivers to my desert and a road through my wilderness! (Isaiah 43:19)
