I have a few random pictures from our recent family vacation in Emerald Isle, NC.
This is my desire
This is my return
This is my desire to be used by you
My simple gift for you this Sunday is this reminder of God’s incredible, all-consuming love for you.
(If you are viewing via email or a reader just click on the post title to watch the video.)
You want to be real
You want to be empty inside
You want to be someone laying down your pride
You want to be someone someday
Then lay it all down before the King
You want to be whole
You want to have purpose inside
You want to have virtue and purify your mind
You want to be set free today then lay it all down before the King
[Chorus:]
This is my desire
This is my return
This is my desire to be used by you
You want to be real
You want to be emptied inside
And I know my heart is to feel you near
And I know my life
It’s to do your will
It’s to do your will
[Chorus]
All my life I have seen where you’ve taken me
Beyond all I have hoped and there’s more left unseen
There’s not much I can do to repay all you’ve done so I give my hands to use
[Chorus]

Want thrifty home ideas you can do yourself?
I couldn’t get the video to open. What am I doing wrong? I love your post and thanks for sharing.
I don’t know Shirley. If you’re watching in a reader or via email you have to open the post itself. It plays fine coming from my website.
Beautiful place- takes me away!
Hi, Gina. Thanks for taking the time to comment on my Simple Gift Sunday post. We loved the beach and thought Jeremy Camp’s song went so well with the pictures. Have a blessed week!
I would to send the video to my sister. Do you know how I can do this? Also I want to invite my friends to receive your e-mails, I know they would enjoy them as much as I do. I am a big fan so love your site.

Love this song, took the words straight from my heart and put them to music. Thank you.
Hi, Debbie. I’m so glad the Jeremy Camp song I linked spoke to you.I listen to a lot of worship music as I’m trying to wind down and get to sleep. I’ve found some great ones and you can find them through the faith tab on my blog. Have a blessed day!
Thanks for sharing these beautiful photos, Marty. I love North Carolina but haven’t been to “Emerald Isle.” Looks like a wonderful place to visit! Thanks for the brightening my Monday, friend!
Hey, Beth. NC is amazing and I’ve lived here most of my life. Emerald Isle is where we honeymooned and where we have taken most of our beach vacations. Let me know if you ever get to our neck of the woods!
Dear Marty
Great pictures of your holidays! The words of this song capture the urgent desire of many a heart that love our Lord and King Jesus. Oh, that our lives will bring Him glory.
Much love XX
Mia
I love me some Jeremy Camp! And served up with a bit of the sea? Even better. A beautiful gift, Marty. Thank you.
Jeremy Camp is a recent favorite of mine, Laura. I love sitting in my rocking chair with my ipod and drifting towards dreamland with worship music on. It’s the best!
Beautiful pictures and beautiful music. Thank you for sharing them with us.
Also, I’m happy to be your newest follower! I’d love it if you could take a second to check out my blog and follow me back 🙂
