Serving You

Reading doesn't save me
Writing doesn't save me
Sharing doesn't save me
God saves me despite me

I desire to give
My life, yet parts of me grasp
Tightly to this world.
Help me to loosen that grip
To turn fully to You, Lord.

Lord help me desire to read of You
Lord help me write of Your works
Lord help me share Your Good News
Lord help me honor You with my life.

Buying High

Lord, You saved me when
I was at my worst; I will
Praise You forever.

Search me, O God; show
What I have hidden. Let no
Vile thing dwell in me.

Let me not forget,
Reduce the meaning of: the
Price You paid for me.

Days of the Year

"Jesus, my life is
Yours." How often has that been
Really lived this year?

Reference: CYS comic strip :D

Adonai

Is the Lord, your God,
Sovereign in your life? Or
Lord in word alone?


reference: R. C. Sproul teaching on "Adonai"

Infinite Gift

God is infinite.
Without Him is to come short,
With Him; completion.

======================

Listening to John Piper teach on his favorite subject, I needed to make note of what he was saying and did so with the first line here. Then, as I started to mark down the explanation I found this haiku. So this is merely a personal note on the need to expound on that first line: God is infinite.
