Love, love, love

I love LOVE worship time in a church service. You know, it's when all the lights are dim and slowly everyone but me and God fade into the background.

This morning we sung this song:

When I look at the blood
All I see is love, love, love.
When I stop at the cross
I can see the love of God

But I can't see competition
I can't see hierarchy
I can't see pride or prejudice
or the abuse of authority
I can't see lust for power
I can't see manipulation
I can't see rage or anger
or selfish ambition

But I can't see unforgiveness
I can't see hate or envy
I can't see stupid fighting
or bitterness,or jealousy.
I can't see empire building
I can't see self importance
I can't see back stabbing
Or vanity or arrogance.

I see surrender, sacrifice, salvation,
humility, righteousness, faithfulness, grace, forgiveness
Love Love Love........
When I Stop!....at the cross
I can see the love of God.

Godfrey Birtill

This was a reminder to me that I have a God who keeps no track of wrong. I serve a God who sacrificed the life of his son for me. ME!!!! I want people to only see love love love in me. I get so busy at work preparing for the new school year, shortening my to do list, and worrying about whats to come. Sometimes I forget that I am being Jesus to someone. I need to show more love to those around me. Lord help me to be more like you. Thank you God for your scarifies and unfailing love.
