As a I was listening to Sugarland this morning and reading my Bible ( go ahead and rant about listening to "Godly' music when reading the Bible, I'll wait).........................
Alright so to my point, one song really hit me with the Truth . It's from their song, "settlin' "
"I ain't settling for just getting by
I've had enough so so for the rest of my life
Tired of shooting too low, so raise the bar high
Just enough ain't enough this time
I ain't settling for anything less than everything,yeah
With my heart wide open yeah you know I will
find what it means to be the girl
change her mind and change the world"
So here is what I got from it: I can settle for what the world and people have to offer or I can reach to the heavens and get all GOD has for me. I am tired of people with their "prophecies" pulling me back from all that I see GOD has for me. I want to experience the fullness of relationship with GOD, whether I soar or I fall flat on my face. HE is there holding my hand, HIS WORD pierces my heart and convicts me of my sins. I will open my heart wide and love without holding back. I will dance with abandon before my LOVER. I'll make a fool of myself for HIS sake. And lets be honest I will make mistakes, I mean I am only human. Sanctification is process that will not be completed until I reach the threshold of heaven.
But in the mean time, I ain't settlin' for anything less than everything.
