Bring me anything...

I love the idea and thought that our lives are meant to tell God's story. That if we let Him, He will use us.

Sometimes I listen to songs on the radio and the tune is catchy or I like to sing along as I drive, but the other day a lyric really stuck out to me. It was in a song on the local Christian radio station and I don't know who sings it, but the song is called "Bring the Rain" (maybe). So, as I was kind of half-heartedly singing along, I heard the line "bring me anything that brings You glory". Wow! That is heavy and real. If we truly say to the Lord, bring me anything as long as You are glorified. I believe that is a life of surrender. That is a life that the Lord is proud of and can use. I want to be able to say, yep bring on anything, as long as You are glorified by the process.

Sometimes that is hard to say. Sometimes what will bring God glory is for a loved one to die or for you to go through a rough time or so many other uncomfortable possibilities. But the exciting thing is, if we are living for Him, we can say bring me anything. I am ready. Because You are with me and You will be glorified.
