On A Journey

What a feeling!

One of my favorite Christian songs is Believe by Hillsong United. And here's the bridge part.

I’m not satisfied doing it my own way
I’m not satisfied to do church and walk away
I’m not satisfied there’s no love in my life but You
I’m not satisfied living in yesterday’s hour
I’m not satisfied to have the form but not the power
I’m not satisfied, Lord I am crucified in You

 Its so.. me. Some people think Im perfect. Well, Im not. I didnt put the whole song coz the first part is. "I say on Sunday how much I want revival, but then on monday I cant even find my bible." Coz, it isnt true, my bible is on my side, everyday. I open and read every night and am trying to make it a habit to read and meditate on it night and day, Coz, that's practically, my map. I dont want to get lost. That's why I dont wanna lose it.

That "Im not satisfied" part.. Reminds me a lot of things. That things shouldn't happen the way I want it to be, but it should be what God wants it to be. And that He's the only love of my life. Since, I dont have anyone special here, yet. And even if I do so, Jesus would still be my first love. That life, isn't about what you left behind, but it's for today that will make tomorrow better. Living in yesterday will leave you stagnant and moving on will be the best solution, of course with the help of God.

Not just having the form, but the power.. power that will come from God alone. And to tell myself that I am crucified in Him. Everything else in this world doesnt matter anymore. Because I am with Jesus.

 

 And this is the other one of my favorites..

 

I Simply Live For You

Say the word and I will sing for You
Over oceans deep, I will follow
If each star was a song
And every breath of wind, praise
It would still fail by far to say 
All my heart contains
I simply live, I simply live for You

Chorus:As the glory of Your presence 
Now fills this place
In worship, we will meet You face to face
There is nothing in this world 
To which You can be compared
Glory on glory, praise upon praise
You bind the broken hearted 
And save all my tears
By Your word, You set the captives free
There is nothing in this world 
That You cannot do
I simply live, I simply live for You

 

That song never failed to make me cry everytime I sing it, I feel fully surrendered to God. and that's how I always want to feel. I simply live for Jesus.

 

Pretty obvious eh? I am part of the music ministry. :) And I always pray to God, that I will be consistent with it. I love to sing for the Lord.
