Moving Forward

We have just concluded our time of Lent and our celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the grave. We can not afford a "spiritual letdown" as we move forward in our walk with Christ. The emotional high of Easter may be fading but the reality of the daily presence of Christ in our lives is more than just a "feeling". CHRIST IS ALIVE AND HE IS AT WORK IN OUR HEARTS AT THIS VERY MOMENT. We must focus on our next steps, our present and future decisions, and our desire to be faithful servants in the Kingdom of God. God has a plan for each of us and we need to learn the joy and reward when we fully surrender our lives to Him. This song was posted by one of my FB friends and I felt led to share it with you. Take a moment and read the words and then offer your life to God as a sweet smelling aroma of surrender and praise.
 
"I Offer My Life"
All that I am, all that I have
I lay them down before you, oh Lord
.... All my regrets, all my acclaims.
The joy and the pain, I'm making them yours
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I've been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
... As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life
Things in the past, things yet unseen
Wishes and dreams that are yet to come true
All of my heart, all of my praise
My heart and my hands are lifted to you
Lord, I offer my life to you
Everything I've been through
Use it for your glory
Lord I offer my days to you
Lifting my praise to you
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord I offer you my life
What can we give
That you have not given?
And what do we have
That is not already yours?
All we possess
Are these lives we're living
That's what we give to you, Lord
