The motions

From the very first time I heard this song it spoke to me. I think about it often. Really listen to the lyrics. The song is call "The motions" by Matthew West. God doesn't want us just going through the motions of Christianity. It should be our drive, our life's passion to live for Jesus everyday. After all He gave His life on that old cruel cross not for His sins for He had none but for our sins. I have said this before but it is worth repeating...we were bought on that cross and no longer belong to ourselves but to Jesus. Do you live with that thought in mind? We have so much to do in this life and so little time. Friends, family, and neighbor to love and share the good news of Jesus. A life to live that reflects our relationship with Jesus. Think about it. So what about it....are you just going through the motions of life or are you living full throttle for Jesus?

 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 19 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? 20 For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body[a] and in your spirit, which are God’s.

 Romans 12:1 12 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

 1 Corinthians 8:6 yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we live.

 Lord help me to live for you with all I have everyday!
