Holy Is The Lamb

I love worship music that moves me. It moves me when it says what I am feeling and helps me to say what I am feeling even better. I love it when I find that song I can play over and over and over and over and I just feel like I am sitting in the throne room of God. This is that song for me right now. It's from a guy named Coffey. Truly gifted and I know his career is gonna take off.

Be Blessed and Be a Blessing!

Better Off Dead

"Better off dead." That is a morbid statement when you really stop to think about it. But for those of us who know Christ and have asked Him in to lead our lives, it isn't morbid anymore when you think about what that entails for us. Now this is not a cry to go out and find a way to take your life or anything, these are just some of my thoughts after reading in Philippians. In the first chapter, verses 20-23, Paul says it would be a hard choice to make if he was forced to make the choice. Some days here in the world are so tough we can hardly wait to get to heaven to be with God--there will be no more of the things that make this life hard to bother us. Spending time doing things like worshipping God--things that we have a hard time finding time to do--will be what we do all day. Yet when we have those good days here in the world, the days where everything is going right, we are pumped about the progress our lives are making and we want to stay here until our work is done. That is the hard part about being able to make the kind of choice Paul was talking about in these verses. The point that was made is that wherever we are called to live, here on earth or called home to heaven, our lives should be lived to bring honor and glory to God. Whether we are trudging through the trenches here or walking on streets of gold there we need to walk in a way that is pleasing to God. Paul starts off this passage of verses by saying "I live in eager expectation and hope that I will never do anything that causes me shame....and that my life will always honor God." That should resonate in all our spirits and that should be our prayer as we go through our day. We might not be home yet, but we don't want to get lost on the way.
