Hey guys! First and foremost, I would like to take this opportunity to thank God for everything He's done for me and all of us as a whole..I hope all of you who are reading these posts are being blessed by what is written. I haven't been feeling well the past few weeks as you can already tell because of the lack of posts by me:) But I'm glad that God has graced me with another chance to talk to y'all bout the things going on in my life and the things God so cleverly places in front of me;)...anyways, I listen to my fair share of music and a lot of the time, these songs that I listen to have a way of speaking so clearly to me. I know all you have to do is just listen to the lyrics, but for me..its a bit different. Every time I go to class, I'm so happy to hook up my Ipod and just listen to some great artists sing their hearts out to God and I can always feel the Spirit fill my car as I drive. So for me, the best time for me to really have a chance to worship God is in the tranquility and privacy of my own car. That for me is one of the greatest joys in my life..to have that time to just sit and worship God while driving to class. Recently, I was checking out some songs on the Internet when I came across a song from a band I often listen to. That song is called,"Follow you" by Leeland. For those of you who aren't familiar with this song, it really deals with servant hood..a topic that had been discussed earlier on. Basically, the song talks about doing what God told us to do in the New Testament..Matthew 28:19-20 to be specific..It reads,"19. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. (KJV)
This really says that we must make this the reason we live..not to be rich in a worldly sense but to serve God and tell those who do not of Him, that He is the Way, the Truth, the Life and be rich in the sense that we know of a God that is above all things! The song says that we should follow Him into the places of the world that are less fortunate than us and share what we experience as Christ-followers and hopefully impact their life in a great and positive way. In the song, Leeland asks the listeners, If God can give us salvation, why can't we give this knowledge of free salvation to others. Why are we so selfish as to keep such a great thing to ourselves...Our Mission: Save as many as we can!!!! I'm telling you guys, you gotta listen to this song and tell me after you listen to the song, that you didn't wanna just jump outta your seat and go save some souls! That's what I want to do..I wanna "Follow Him into the homes of the broken, Follow Him into the world, meet the needs for the poor and needy." This song brings me so much joy and makes me want to go out and do my part in this Great Mission that God commands us to do. I'm gonna stop talking so you can listen to this spectacular song...(There is a link below of a video I found of Leeland in Cambodia singing this song.) All the Glory to God..If anyone from the band Leeland is reading this, GREAT SONG...TRULY A MOVING SONG!!!
Thanks for reading
God Bless
ENJOY!!!!
