What This World Needs

"People aren't confused by the Gospel,
Their confused by us.
Jesus is the only way to God, but we are NOT the only way to Jesus!
This world doesn't need my tie, my hoodie, my denomination, or my translation of the bible.
They just need Jesus.
We can be passionate about what we believe, but we can't strap ourselves to the Gospel, because we're slowing it down.
Jesus is GOING to save the world, but maybe the best thing we can do...
Is just get out of the way."

This is taken from the Casting Crowns song What This World Needs. I adore this song! That whole album is AMAZING! So powerful! So inspiring and just makes me want to live my life better and gives me so much hope! It's AWESOME! God has truly blessed that group with some POWERFUL music!

So speaking of faith, God, and life in general. I've been going through lots of changes spiritually the past year, and I look back, and I can't help but cry for joy over so many things God brought me though and taught me. I know how hard they were going through them, but to be on the other side of so many emotional pains is such a blessing! I have so much more empathy for others, and so much more understanding, God is slowly peeling away my judgemental and phariseeical (not sure that's a word) attitude. I'm gaining more and more of a love for people, and it's awesome! I want to keep going, this is such a great process, and when it gets hard I feel more powerful because I know I can be assured that "All things happen for the good of those who love God, and are called according to His purpose." (Romans 8:28) ALL THINGS!!! PRAISE GOD!
