More Than Anything Else

Thanks be to God…
In the Name of Christ His Son…
For every soul…
That HE, Almighty God…
Brings to green pastures…
And to still waters…
Of love for Christ.
Born sinners…
Stubborn and rebellious…
Forgetting and disrespecting God…
Betraying His love and faithfulness.

Yet, He, Christ...
In His great love for us…
Doesn’t leave us.
In His stubborn love…
Stronger than our rebellion...
Greater than our disrespect…
He pursues us.

Thank You dear Savior…
Our Lord Jesus Christ…
For changing us…
Replacing darkness...
With light…
So, that we with…
David and Paul can say…
I love Your Word…
I embrace Your crucifixion…
I want You…
More than Anything Else.

“Let my cry come before You, O Lord;
Give me understanding according to Your Word.
Let my supplication come before You;
Deliver me according to Your Word.
My lips shall utter praise,
For You teach me Your statutes.
My tongue shall speak of Your Word,
For all Your commandments are righteousness.
Let Your hand become my help,
For I have chosen Your precepts.
I long for Your salvation, O Lord,
And Your law is my delight.” [1]

“God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.” [2]

[1] Psalm 119:169-174
[2] Galatians 6:15
