Giving it Back to Him
May 10th, 2009We had the pleasure of playing this weekend at Green Valley Lake for Harvest’s college and career group, “The Well.” It was cool to see God working in the hearts of so many people throughout the weekend.
I had a moment when I was sitting in the back of the room while another great band was leading worship and happened to notice the silhouette of one particular girl’s hands in the air. Her fingers were stretched out with fervency, then they would ball up into fists as she sang to the Lord; it was beautiful. I don’t often have the opportunity to be an observer during musical worship since I am usually part of it’s leading, so it was a blessing to witness it happening from a different end of the room. I started to think about how God had created those hands and how she was offering them back to Him with everything she had. That is the only thing God wants from any of us: for us to take what He’s given us and use it to point back to Him. It may not always be in a moment of passionate worship, it may be in the quiet, in our jobs, or on the street. Either way the posture of our hearts should always be the same: full of adoration for the One who created us, the One who gave us what we have. Let us give our gifts and ourselves back to Him.
“For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.”
1 Cor. 6:20
