MARCH 15, 2020

A spiritual battle rages for the control of my heart
My heart shapes my words and behavior
What is important to me?
A beautiful home, a new car, nice clothes?
Worldly success, a plush bank account, health?
A comfortable life with a beautiful wife?

What has God declared important? “Jesus Only”
A life in God, a life with believers and a life for others
A life filled with his Spirit and worship with believers
Worship reminds me of his power, glory, grace
and the depth of my spiritual needs
Worship points me to Christ and my need for his grace

His grace is freely given and flows from his heart
It pardons, cleanses, strengthens, enlightens and restores
As a believer, it is my inheritance
His blood purchased my pardon for my transgressions,
given me a new life of power for the present,
and a promise of heaven hereafter

Let me live for “Jesus Only”
