I have been listening to Air1 which is now finally being broadcast in SL and I have been singing some of the songs in my head as appropriate. The one currently in my head is Open Hands by Matt Papa:
"To give unselfishly
to love the least of these
Jesus I'm learning how to live with open hands
All these treasures that I own
will never satisfy my soul
Jesus I lay them at your throne with open hands
CHORUS
I lift my hands open wide
let the whole world see
how you love, how you died, how you set me free
free at last, I surrender all I am with open hands, with open hands
To finally let go of my plans
these earthly kingdoms built of sand
Jesus at your cross I stand with open hands
BRIDGE
You took the nails, You bore the crown
You hung your head, Your love poured out
You took my place, You paid the price
so Jesus now I will give my life"
That is what I am striving for. I want to give it all. I want to crucify my flesh and live fully for God. There are so many things I want in this world, but I have to trust God for those things because He knows best.
