One Way

Although seemingly simple in the blog form it was rather impacting.  I just want to take a few minutes to share with you the blessing that I received today. 

As I was getting ready for church this morning, Matt Markarian (peeps pastor) called me and asked if I would help with the 3-year-olds today instead of the Jr. High because they were severely understaffed in the kids department.  In case you don’t know, I never turn down the chance to play with the little littles as we so fondly call them.   There were quite a few jokes about me with the kids this morning, as some are afraid I will never return to Jr. High, some are worried that I would want kids sooner (and by some, I mean one – Greg), but I will leave out those details for the purity of the point of today’s blog.  So here I am, Sunday morning at 10:00 and 11:30 jumping up and down, dancing around, making the hand motions, and worshiping with these children.  I was touched by the purity of their joy for the Lord.  Why don’t I worship like that normally?  That is the mission, and here is the song:

One Way
Hillsong United


I lay my life down at Your feet
Cause You're the only one I need
I turn to You and You are always there

In troubled times it's You I seek
I put You first that's all I need
I humble all I am, all to You

(Here we go!)

One way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for
One Way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for

You are always, always there
Every how and everywhere
Your grace abounds so deeply within me

You will never ever change
Yesterday today the same
Forever till forever meets no end

(Here we go!)

One way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for
One Way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for
One way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for
One Way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for

You are the Way the Truth and the Life
We live by faith and not by sight
For You, we're living all for You
You are the Way the Truth and the Life
We live by faith and not by sight
For You, we're living all for You

Thank you little littles for reminding me of how to purely praise.  May we all be pure of heart, just as you are.
