Colossians 1:28-29
We proclaim Him, warning and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone mature in Christ. I labor for this, striving with His strength that works powerfully in me.
When I sit back and think on the gifts God has given me. I can't help but to think about how much more I can use them. How much more passion and effort, power, I could be doing them with. This verse speaks on so many levels to me. Paul says I labor for this! That part there is just amazing. Labor being defined as physical or mental work, especially hard or fatiguing kind. He doesn't take the Gods business lightly he puts great effort in it. You can tell that he has passion for spearing the gospel anyway he knows how.
I personally took that as a challenge. Coming into this year I prayed for a new and stronger fire for Christ. I want to be more dedicated to him; and this verse sums up how I want to feel. How I want to respond to Gods calling, to work in His powerful strength that will flow through me. I offer the same challenge to you how much effort will you put to use God's gifts to you for his name? Will you push and work in your crafts to give him more glory and spread his name? I pray this year we all find a renewed passion and drive for Christ!

Worship!
Dance,
Dance like every step you take will give more praise to the father,
Like every twitch and movement you make will bring more glory to his alter,
You
Can captivate the masses with your movements
Let your rhythm be contagious like wild fire in the wilderness
And let your moves set the hearts of men a blaze
Or you can sing
Sing freely like the Lords gift to you to breathe
Not from your nose but from your feet
Engulfing your entire essence producing a melody that is sweet
You,
Have a voice that speaks volume
Let your lungs push out a song so beautiful that the birds will envy you
And let your praise lead the pathway to heaven
A chorus the whole world could get addicted to,
Or you can live
Live a life that's pleasing to him
Live a life that shines like the morning sun
That makes the world yearn for Him
So like you they can be one
You,
Can be the very connection to humanity
By walking in His likeness
Christ could use you to save them from depravity
of life
A life with him that is eternal
And filled with the love from the creator
So you
Yes you,
worship God with your whole heart
In moments of light and dim
For my God is an amazing one
And deserves all that we can give
Just worship!
