I was listening to this song earlier and realized how well it actually coincides with this scripture, so I decided to share it with y'all... :)
I'm forgiven because You were forsaken
I'm accepted, You were condemned
I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again
I'm forgiven because You were forsaken
I'm accepted, You were condemned
I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again
Amazing love, how can it be
That You, my King, should die for me?
Amazing love, I know it's true
It's my joy to honor You
In all I do, To honor You
I'm forgiven because You were forsaken
I'm accepted, You were condemned
I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again
Amazing love, how can it be
That You, my King, should die for me?
Amazing love, I know it's true
It's my joy to honor You
In all I do, To honor You
In all I do, To honor You
You are my King
You are my King
Jesus, You are my King
You are my King
Amazing love, how can it be
That You, my King, should die for me?
Amazing love, I know it's true
It's my joy to honor You
Amazing love, how can it be
That You, my King, should die for me?
Amazing love, I know it's true
It's my joy to honor You
In all I do, To honor You
In all I do, To honor You,
In all I do, To honor You,
In all I do, Let me honor You.
Here is the video if you would like to listen to it...
I just think this is a beautiful song. The lyrics tell of the amazing love that Christ had to lay down his life for our sins... If He can die for us, why wouldn't we want to strive to honor Him in everything we do?
This being said, why wouldn't we want to do everything to the best of our abilities and use all of the talents God has given us?
I especially love the line that says "Its my JOY to honor You!" :)
So, how about you? Are you honoring God with JOY in everything you do? Are you working with all of your heart and focused on doing your work to please God, not men?
I hope you will take these words with you as you begin this new week, my friends. I hope you all have a wonderful week! :)
Thanks Crystal! Such a good reminder. Sometimes I get too wrapped up into diy projects and blogging about them and forget to really seek what Christ wants to do with it!
