The Glory of God is Man Fully Alive!

This song always stirs me.
There are times where I think, "yep, this is it... this is the life God has in store for me." Then God says to me over and over again, "No sweet child, there is more! If you can believe it... there is SO much more."
So I live for God. I live for God knowing with full faith and assurance that He has a life for me and a love for me beyond my comprehension... that if I grow with Him and in Him, even my trials will give Him glory and enrich my life.
He is why I live.
There's just no arguing that!

Take a sec to read through this song. I hope it gets in your mind and prompts prayer throughout your day. Is this what God has for you? Have you asked Him to show up?
I assure you - it's a request He LOVES to answer!!



Just Showed Up - Sara Groves

Spending my time sleep walking
Moving my mouth but not saying a thing
Hoping the changes would take by working their way from the outside in
I was in love with an idea
Preoccupied with how a life should appear
Spending my time at the surface repairing the holes in the shiny veneer

There are so many ways to hide
There are so many ways not to feel
There are so many ways to deny what is real

And I just showed up for my own life
And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright

I'm going to live my life inspired
Look for the holy in the common place
Open the windows and feel all that's honest and real until I'm truly amazed
I'm going to feel all my emotions
I'm going to look you in the eyes
I'm going to listen and hear until it's finally clear and it changes our lives

There are so many ways to hide
There are so many ways not to feel
There are so many ways to deny what is real

And I just showed up for my own life
And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright

Oh the glory of God is man fully alive
Oh the glory of God is man fully alive


There are so many ways to hide
There are so many ways not to feel
There are so many ways to deny what is real

And I just showed up for my own life
And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright
