Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fameAnd the cry of my heart is to bring You praiseFrom the inside out, O my soul cries out
Worship is something that I have learned over the years, varies for everyone! Some sing, some play instruments, some pray during songs, some sing with a beautiful melody. I will be honest with you, I LOVE to sing, but can't carry a tune in a bucket. I can switch to nearly any radio station, and I know the lyrics. When I am at church, I love my time of worship. It is the part of the service that God speaks to me.
Back to the lyrics above. If you are familiar with contemporary Christian music, you may recognize these words. This is one of my favorite songs to sing at church. I get chills every time! The words in this song reach into my soul. They speak to me in words that are more than black and white.
"And the cry of my heart is to bring You praise"
Oh my!! Did you read that?! I mean, REALLY read it.
Has your heart ever cried out? I'm talking something deeper than a break up, deeper than the loss of a game. Has your heart ever cried out to Jesus? Have you ever felt like all you can do is say "I love you God! I adore you! I need you God! I want to do nothing but praise you!"
I am far from perfect. My life journey has been rocky! But my soul, my heart, my entire being cries out to God over and over. I cry for help, I cry for joy, I cry for love, I cry for comfort, I cry for excitement, I cry for GOD! My heart desires to live and be more like Jesus. And I fail, time after time. But each and every time I fall away, God welcomes me back.
"Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame"
Gods glory is astounding! His glory covers all of our faults. Here on earth, we get caught up in "fame." Whether it be Kim Kardashian or being the best basketball player in high school. Fame is something that we humans strive for. We like to be recognized. Don't you think God wants to be recognized?! Don't you think He deserves it?! Shouldn't our praise be to Him and for Him?!
I could take each and every line of this song, and tell you how much it touches my soul. But I won't do that. Instead I beg you to take the time to listen to it. I have given you the link below, lyrics are included so you can see and hear the song. My prayer for you is that there is something out there, whether it be music or something else, that pulls at your heart to strive to be more for God. That makes you want to give every ounce of yourself to Him.
Have a blessed night, day, and week!
