Last week I went to rehearsal at my church and we practiced a song I'd never heard before. It's called Christ Is Enough by Hillsong Live. I don't really like "new" songs so I was a little hesitant when starting but after a few lines I realized where it was headed. I discovered that one of my favorite hymns was altered a bit and was buried deep in this new song. I absolutely loved it and can't get that little part out of my head! It goes:
I have decided to follow Jesus, no turning back, no turning back
The cross before me, the world behind me, no turning back, no turning back
These lines are some of my absolute favorite, they are the cry of my life & I hope to fulfill them with all my being! My greatest purpose in life is to follow Jesus & guide others to Him fulfilling the mission we were given in Matthew 28:19-20. So whether I'm called as a missionary, or to stay here at home fulfilling the Great Commission, may my life ever proclaim Jesus and never turn back! The world is now behind me and the Cross is before me! My only focus should be Cross!
