In this world of chaos, sickness, and death there is one constant that we can hold on to... the great I AM! So many times in the midst of everyday life we only see God in pieces... for example... Oh, God I need your strength... What would happen if we worshiped HIM in the fullness that He deserves? What would change in our lives? in our homes?? in the cities in which we live??? in our nation?
Recently the song "You are God of this city" by Chris Tomlin has been echoing through my mind... with the exception of city is changed to island. Living on a very religious island... many here are missing the true God.
What greater things are we missing out on because we are choosing not to worship Him in fullness and truth? We are truly living dark, hopeless lives, restless for the next worldly thing to come about. What would happen if we truly put Him in our lives... FIRST?
I truly believe that God is wanting to do greater things in our lives, homes, cities, and nation if we would call out to Him and put Him first. Seek first His kingdom!
You're God of this City
by Chris Tomlin
You're the God of this City
You're the King of these people
You're the Lord of this nation
You are
[Verse 2]
You're the Light in this darkness
You're the Hope to the hopeless
You're the Peace to the restless
You are
There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God
[Chorus]
For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater thing have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
[Verse 1]
[Verse 2]
There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God
[Chorus]
For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here
There is no one like our god
There is no one like our God
[Chorus]
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here
thanks for sharing this...one of my favorites when we were on Molokai. In fact, I still sing the island version when it's sung at our worship service. Miss you!!
