He wants us to be with Him and then give away what we have been given from being with Him. - Jennie Allen (Nothing to Prove)
Sounds pretty simple doesn't it? Why do we make things so hard? Because I want to be seen, to be admired, to be loved...by people? This CD launch is exciting and kind of a big deal (it would appear) and I want it to be perfect, I want to be perfect...but what if it's not? Who cares? I had a reality check the other day, I'm not going to play keys for the concert Saturday...there goes my crutch, I suddenly realized that I won't have the lyrics in front of me...panic attack? What if I forget the lyrics to my own stinkin' songs? So what. And then I thought, what if I do forget or what if I do use lyrics? What does it matter? I have NOTHING TO PROVE! But boy does it seem like I do right now! And then I get the gentle reminder that Jesus is enough and no matter what, it'll be ok...that I don't have to prove myself, Jesus has done such a work in me and that's what I need to show, to give away...my performance is meaningless, but my worship needs to be about Him, for Him.
To simply display God has become my greatest goal. What could be a greater calling than to live so that God's great grace is magnified in our lives? - Jennie Allen (Nothing to Prove).
So, this week and always...let's seek Him, spend time with Him, abide in Him.
