How Could We Not?

"Is not the Lamb who was slain worthy of the reward of His suffering?"

-Paris Reidhead

You live among the least of these, the weary and the weak

And it would be a tragedy for me to turn away

All my needs You have supplied. When I was dead You gave me life

So how could I not give it away so freely?

And I´ll Follow You into the homes of the broken

Follow You into the world

Meet the needs for the poor and the needy, God

Follow You into the world

Use my hands, use my feet to make Your kingdom come

To the corners of the earth until Your work is done

Faith without works is dead. On the cross Your blood was shed.

So how could we not give it away so freely?

And I'll Follow You into the homes of the broken

Follow You into the world

Meet the needs for the poor and the needy, God

Follow You into the world

And I give all myself, I give all myself, I give all myself to YOU

And I'll Follow You into the homes of the broken

Follow You into the world

Meet the needs for the poor and the needy, God

-"Follow You," by Leeland

The Waiter

"It is on God that we should wait, as a waiter waits--not for but on the customer-- alert, watchful, attentive, with no agenda of his own, ready to do whatever is wanted. "My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expection is from Him" (Ps. 62:5) In Him alone lie our security, our confidence, our trust. A spirit of restlessness and resistance can never wait, but one who believes he is loved with an everlasting love, and knows that underneath are the everlasting arms, will find strength and peace."

-Elisabeth Elliot Quest for Love pg. 163
