I Want To Live Like That

psalmshymnsspiritualsongskjv

Sometimes I think
What will people say of me
When I’m only just a memory
When I’m home where my soul belongs
Was I love
When no one else would show up
Was I Jesus to the least of us
Was my worship more than just a song

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You
If love is who I am
Then this is where I’ll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back
I want to live like that
I want to live like that

Am I proof
That You are who you say You are
That grace can really change our heart
Do I live like Your love is true
People pass
And even if they don’t know my name
Is there evidence that I’ve been changed
When they see me, do they see You

I want to live like that
And give it all I have
So that everything I say and do
Points to You
If love is who I am
Then this is where I’ll stand
Recklessly abandoned
Never holding back
I want to live like that
I want to live like that

I want to show the world the love You gave for me
I’m longing for the world to know the glory of the King

This is the legacy I want to leave!
Is my life proof of Who God says He is?

Let’s explore Who God says He is:

For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?
It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect.
He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he enables me to stand on the heights.
2 Samuel 22:32-34 NIV

For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor;
No good thing does He withhold from those whose walk is blameless.
O LORD Almighty, blessed is the man who trusts in You.
Psalms 84:11-12 NIV

And so it happened just as the Scriptures say: “Abraham believed God,
and God counted him as righteous because of his faith.”
He was even called the friend of God.
James 2:23 NIV

Don’t you just love these verses?  They tell us that

  • it is God Who arms me with strength
  • He enables me to stand on new heights
  • He is a Sun and a Shield
  • He bestows honor and favor
  • and no good thing does He withhold from those whose walk is blameless
  • blessed is the man who trusts in Him

Because of Jesus our walk and our life can be blameless.  Now THAT is something worth celebrating!

God gave me a second chance at life after I messed it up the first time.  My heart’s desire after being born again is to do this life well and honor God in all that I do. My legacy and my life reflect that to be so.  We must be doers of the word and not hearers only.  A life lived out in the Truth is what makes the difference. Authenticity…because people are watching.  May we reflect the Father and His love to those around us.

Heavenly Father, I thank You for the gift of redemption.  May I be love when no one else will show up!  May my worship be more than just a song!  My heart’s desire is to live like that…and give it all I have…so that everything I say and do…points to You!  In Jesus’ name AMEN!!!
