[Thursday's Devotional] - You are the Reason

Do you ever get that feeling that you are never good enough?  The world drags you down, and you feel that your life is not living up to what you expected.  Or you feel that the Christian Life you are living is not quite good enough.

 

There are many who will criticize you for your faith.  It’s not an easy journey we take.  And we do stray from this path.

 

My penultimate song is just an American Rock song that I discovered years ago, I actually think the first time I heard it I was driving in America and it came on the radio, I was so blown away by the lyrics that I thought for a second I was listening to a Christian Rock Station and had to double check the settings.  The song is basic mainstream Middle America Rock.  I think it’s a love song, but then aren’t all the best Worship songs?

 

Listen to it here: YouTube  “The Reason” [4:10 mins]

 

What I find strange about the song, is that it is a simple song about wanting to start afresh. We get that chance every second of every day with God.

 

I’m not a perfect person – Who is?

There’s many things I wish I didn’t do – Too many to Count

But I continue Learning – By your Spirit

I never meant to do those things to you – I know my sin separates me from you

And so I have to say before I go – Before it’s too late

That I just want you to know

I’ve found a Reason for me

To Change who I used to be

A Reason to start over new

And the Reason is YOU!!

 

It’s never too late to change, it’s never too late to say sorry and never believe that it is.

The reason for this is Jesus and how he loves us so.
