“I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name forever.” Psalm 86:12
What better way to look at a Monday and start a week than by praising our God?
I woke this morning with this song by Hillsong on my heart and tongue. Sometimes, I am filled with guilt or a sense of unworthiness. I see that I am a wretched sinner and and Satan fills my mind that I am undeserving of love or notice from God. The only thing I’ve ‘earned’ from Him is His judgment – justly cast. But, then, the lyrics of this song ring into my soul like a cluster of huge church bells. I may be all those things above but God reminds me who I am to Him.
I’m a child of God
I am chosen, not forsaken
I am who You say I am
You are for me, not against me
I am who You say I am
I am chosen, not forsaken
I am who You say I am
You are for me, not against me
I am who You say I am…. I’m a child of God
Whenever you have a feeling like this above, let the lyrics of this song overflow into your soul with the solid knowledge that you are a child of God.
