More than more than ever.

I am going to a place,
Where my deeds are not measured
And my life is not weighed.
I am going to a place
Where I have been chosen to be loved,
Where who I am has been replaced
By who heaven has called me to be.
I am going to rise,
Above the darknesses that have plagued my existence,
Before I had a choice,
Before I had the wisdom
To know
And to choose..
I am destined for more
Than I could ever have dreamed,
A future that stretches out,
Before my grandest desires
And most wondrous dreams.
Today,
I live in the gratitude
That all this has nothing to do with who I am,
And everything to do
With just simply,
Who you are.

Grateful to find this new step in your journey.

Some say that Heaven is already here. It is a state of mind.

If this is true, then:

You are there.
Heaven. Now.
Loved.
Accepted.
Whole.
Heaven has found you!

Hope is burning bright as I look forward for the glory of God to be expressed in my life and yours.

Your music continues to inspire, lift up heavy hearts, comfort... the anointing is still there.

Thank you!

Listening to one of your old songs..."Just let me say.."

One of the phrases, "you have found me in my desert and this sand is holy ground and my brokenness is mended, by you my Lord and friend..."

As I walk in the desert, this promise that my brokenness is mended makes me believe there is a God, He is merciful and He loves me! Light at the end of the tunnel.

The past, the condemnation melts away in that promise. My brokenness is mended. My faith in God is renewed...

This is such a personal song, much more so now than when I wrote it.

Dear Geoff,
Yes, there is something new, even with your older songs... God's anointing works in mysterious ways. Perhaps it depends on the state of our hearts when we listen; how open we are, for God's word to heal, to renew...

Grace is such a strange word, how little we understand it. How could we ever deserve God's grace? The depth of God's grace...what does it mean? I am reflecting on it...

"The sand is holy ground..." can be anywhere we allow God to be with us, to share our lives. Doesn't have to be only on Sundays, in church...

Sometimes Church is the last place I would find "holy ground".

I am not perfect,
Haven't got all the answers.
Made quite a few mistakes,
No doubt will make some more...

Would you be patient with me,
Would you be kind?
Will you be tender,
and show God's mercy?

God is mending my brokenness,
Would you tear it apart?
Will you remind me,
How imperfect I am?

God is mending my brokenness,
Would you remind me,
that I am forgiven?
Would you remind me,
how much I am loved?

God is mending my brokenness...

Beautiful words Geoff!

And thank you Merlin for the reminder of one of Geoff's annointed songs that saw me through my last desert experience... I shall go back to the "oldies" which gave me great comfort & peace in God back then for this new desert experience in which I feel all hope is lost.
