"For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit..." Romans 14:17-19

I will follow

- Chris Tomlin


Where you go, I'll go 
Where you stay, I'll stay 
When you move, I'll move 
I will follow... 

All your ways are good 
All your ways are sure 
I will trust in you alone 
Higher than my side 
High above my life 
I will trust in you alone 

Where you go, I'll go 
Where you stay, I'll stay 
When you move, I'll move 
I will follow you 
Who you love, I'll love 
How you serve I'll serve 
If this life I lose, I will follow you 
I will follow you 

Light unto the world 
Light unto my life 
I will live for you alone 
You're the one I seek 
Knowing I will find 
All I need in you alone, in you alone 

In you there's life everlasting 
In you there's freedom for my soul 
In you there joy, unending joy 
and I will follow


I've been listening to this song over and over, actually the CD over and over the past few weeks. I must say it's pretty scary to follow God to somewhere unknown, out of my comfort zone. Others questioning my purpose, some praising me even. Really though, do I have a choice but to obey? I forgot where I read this but God doesn't call "special" people to go do His mission. His mission is here where we are and He has already called ALL people. "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations..." Matthew 28:19 To be honest I don't think it's that hard, I can take xrays anywhere. I'm sure the views are similar in all hospitals but I must remember that is not my purpose of going. My purpose is to share the gospel to the nation lacking Jesus, not only providing physical healing but emotional and spiritual. I am there to represent Jesus. It's a spiritual battle that I have to prepare for. Please pray with me, I can't do this alone.



Matthew 5
He said:

3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit,
   for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
   for they will be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
   for they will inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
   for they will be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful,
   for they will be shown mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
   for they will see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
   for they will be called children of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
   for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
