The voice of truth; destined for greatness

Thu, Fri was ushering retreat. From Faces to Family! Thank you Matt- STUDY HARD. haha. Thank you all the ushers. :) Sat, Sun was YM leaders retreat. (Harloe Bardee yes that was funny. And thank you for the uh, long due letter, a few years late. haha.) Both very good, in their different ways. Yay :)

This post is quite all over the place- I'm not bothering to link everything up. But yea, just smidgens here and there which you can think about.

Okay I know the lyrics very long but it's good lyrics so, yeps. Read la. haha.

Voice of Truth
Casting Crowns

Oh,what I would do to have the kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in onto the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone into the realm of the unknown
Where Jesus is, And he's holding out his hand

But the waves are calling out my name and they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me time and time again
"Boy, you'll never win, you'll never win."

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Oh, what I would do to have the kind of strength it takes
To stand before a giant with just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out my name and he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me time and time again
"Boy you'll never win, you'll never win."

But the stone was just the right size to put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high from on top of them looking down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus singing over me

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

I will listen and believe...

Chris Rice's song, Sometimes Love, goes
Sometimes love has to drive a nail into it's own hand

We are destined for greatness. Each one of us are. We are destined for greatness.
