One of the most wonder-filled aspects to being Yours is seeing Your Promises come alive in my life.
I love digging deep into Your Word, because not only do I find You there, I discover just how much You have done for me!
This verse jumped out this morning.
And I realized it was true.
When I follow Your ways, You not only have shown me the way to go which is best for me but You shine Your delight on and in me.
There is a blessing through following You first which cannot be experienced any other way.
Not only do things turn out better for me in the long run, I discover just how much more wise, good, true and majestic You are.
I can place my trust and put my hope in You all the more when I take a step back and see how Your story has been shaping mine for the better.
A newer song by Big Daddy Weave perfectly captures my sense of wonder and delight as I see You work in my life.
Lord, may I never cease to wonder and worship You as I follow Your ways, all my days.
MY STORY – Big Daddy Weave
If I told you my story You would hear Hope that wouldn’t let go
And if I told you my story You would hear Love that never gave up
And if I told you my story You would hear Life, but it wasn’t mine
If I should speak then let it be
Of the grace that is greater than all my sin
Of when justice was served and where mercy wins
Of the kindness of Jesus that draws me in
Oh to tell you my story is to tell of Him
If I told you my story You would hear victory over the enemy
And if I told you my story You would hear freedom that was won for me
And if I told you my story You would hear Life overcome the grave
If I should speak then let it be
Of the grace that is greater than all my sin
Of when justice was served and where mercy wins
Of the kindness of Jesus that draws me in
Oh to tell you my story is to tell of Him
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my savior all the day long
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my savior all the day long
For the grace that is greater than all my sin
Of when justice was served and where mercy wins
Of the kindness of Jesus that draws me in
Oh to tell of my story is to tell of Him!
