Just give Him a chance

God is so good.  If you'll only give Him the opportunity, He'll prove it.

Good does not mean, however, that He's a magic genie who'll grant your every wish.  Good means He is just and righteous and pure and trustworthy and faithful.

This week He has shown me over and over again that if I will only pray for His glory to be my one true passion, He will bless me with just that!  So many exciting things are happening, but they are happening is such a way that I cannot help but recognize that they are gifts from Him and not a result of my efforts.  To God be all the glory!

How can I say thanks 
for the things You have done for me?
Things so undeserved, 
yet You gave to prove Your love for me;
the voices of a million angels
could not express my gratitude.
All that I am and ever hope to be, 
I owe it all to Thee.

To God be the glory,
to God be the glory,
to God be the glory 
for the things He has done.

With His blood He has saved me,
with His power He has raised me;
to God be the glory 
for the things He has done.

Just let me live my life,
let it pleasing, Lord to Thee,
and if I gain any praise,
let it go to Calvary.

The very same God
That spins things in orbit
Runs to the weary, the worn and the weak
And the same gentle hands that hold me when I'm broken
They conquered death to bring me victory
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/n/nicole_c_mullins/my_redeemer_lives.html ]
Now I know, my Redeemer lives
I know my Redeemer lives
Let all creation testify
Let this life within me cry
I-I-I know
My Redeemer

To God be the glory,
to God be the glory,
to God be the glory 
for the things He has done.
