Exploring His Wonders

Better Believer
So over the past couple weeks I've been amazed at what God has done in my life. Sometimes it's so easy to sit back and think that God doesn't care, or that maybe I'm doing something wrong. The beauty of our Lord is that no matter what, He is still up there, still in control, and He STILL loves me.
The past week has been grace upon grace, blessing upon blessing, and I LOVE IT!
Dierks Bentley just released a new album not too long ago, and one of the songs on it is called "Better Believer" and it is really convicting. How much have I been given, when in comparison I gave little.
Life is seen more clearly through our tears
Cause we all find some faith
When we face our fears
When my life's goin like I want
God becomes an after thought
And I start trying to build my Heaven here
A better believer would look to the skies
And shout "hallelujah" with tears in his eyes
Open his heart and start givin it all away
When I take a hard look at myself
And count my blessings I can't but help
But wonder if there's been some kind of mistake
This life of mine should belong to a better believer
All we really need in life is love
And in my time I've had more than enough
But some days I'm not satisfied
It happens to me all the time
I look around instead of looking up
A better believer would look to the skies
And shout "hallelujah" with tears in his eyes
Open his heart and start givin it all away
When I take a hard look at myself
And count my blessings I can't but help
But wonder if there's been some kind of mistake
This life of mine should belong to a better believer
With all I've got to be thankful for
I should be doing so much more
I know
So my application, and my offer to you is to live your life to the fullest, making the biggest impact using the talents God has given you. Don't be discouraged, take heart, He is God alone.
You’re the only God
Whose power none can contend
You’re the only God
Whose name and praise will never end
You’re the only God
Who’s worthy of everything we can give
You are God
And that’s just the way it is
