MY SONG
By: Sarah Pennington
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.
Psalm 28:7 KJV
The life of a worshipper is not limited to what we do on a Sunday morning. Worship is a lifestyle. Worship is becoming more and more “God conscience” and less and less “self-conscience”. Here is the problem: we all have the desire to worship. It is in all of us. We love the Lord so much, and worship demands the innermost feelings to be expressed in praise, but the execution of it can be difficult.
It’s like when you first fall in love—you know you love this person with all your heart, but you just don’t seem to have the ability to communicate your love to them the way you would like to. Then you hear a song. It says it well. That becomes “your song.” Every time you hear it with your love, you both recognize that’s “your song!”
When you worship, always remember that no one can praise Him like you can. No one can hold a candle to you in that moment, because no one has been through the hell you’ve been through to get to that place.
YOU WEREN'T THERE THE NIGHT JESUS FOUND ME
YOU DID NOT FEEL WHAT I FELT
WHEN HE WRAPPED HIS LOVING ARMS AROUND ME
AND YOU DON'T KNOW THE COST OF THE OIL...*
You have a praise of your own! Remember how much He loves to hear “your song.”
