knowing God - Hebrews 13;15

(from pastor)

Let us offer

the sacrifice of praise

to God continually.

Hebrews 13:15

 

In times of old, the priests of God offered bloody sacrifices on a bloody altar.

 

In modern times, you and I are all priests. God has entrusted to each of us the responsibilities of offering a new breed of sacrifices. And the good news is, you don't have to get your hands bloody.  All we have to do is lift them up in praise ... continually.

 

In Christ's Love,

a guy who's seen too many people with shoulder trouble

and can't lift up their arms

As I was walking with my iPod plugged in today, this song came on...it is one of my prayers at this time... "Nothing Without You" by Bebo Norman

Take these hands 

And lift them up 

For I have not the strength to praise You near enough 

See, I have nothing 

I have nothing without You 

And take my voice and pour it out 

Let it sing the songs of mercy I have found 

For I have nothing 

I have nothing without You 

And all my soul needs is all Your love 

To cover me, so all the world will see 

That I have nothing without You 

Take my body and build it up 

May it be broken as an offering of love 

For I have nothing 

I have nothing without You 

And all my soul needs is all Your love 

To cover me so all the world will see 

That I have nothing 

That I love You, yeah 

With all my heart 

With all my soul 

With all my mind 

And all the strength I can find 

Take my time here on this earth 

And let it glorify all that You are worth 

For I am nothing 

I am nothing without You
