Wonderful Saviour

As I sit here, a beautiful worship song washes over me:

Wonderful Saviour, my heart belongs to Thee
I will remember always the blood You shed for me
Wonderful Saviour, my heart will know Your worth
So let me embrace You always as I walk beside

Be blessed
Be loved
Be lifted high
Be treasured here
I owe my life to You, My Lord
Here I am

Beautiful Jesus, how may I bless Your heart?
Knees to the earth I bow down to everything You are
Beautiful Jesus, You are my only worth
So I will embrace You always as I walk beside

Be blessed
Be loved
Be treasured here
I owe my life to You, My Lord
Here I am. Here I am.
How wonderful our Saviour, how beautiful our Jesus. If we could but know and glimpse His infinite, inestimable worth each and every day, how our lives would be transformed into walking breathing cathedrals of praise. Today, might we truly, even for a moment, see Him. Really see Him in the majesty and glory and power and beauty of His presence. Might we push aside the busyness, the petty concerns and worries, the irritations, the slights and annoyances. What are they in light of HIM? He walks beside us. The Saviour, the Redeemer, the Creator, the Sustainer, the Lion, the Lamb has chosen not only to die for us, but to walk beside us, every moment, every hour, every day. How could perfection and beauty and glory walk beside sin and selfishness? O the love of Christ!

"For God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 Never never never ever get over the wonder of that! He walks beside us. He lives within us. He loves us just as we are... but by His Holy Spirit enables us to live and love in a far better, higher, holier way. So might we sing
Be blessed
Be loved
Be lifted high
Be treasured here
Be glorified
I owe my life to You my Lord
Here I am--might my life bring You glory, O most glorious, worthy Savior!
To You be all the glory
