i’ve been spending a lot of time in the car by myself lately, driving back and forth for church, small group, family things, and to hang out with friends. i’ve been trying to spend a good majority of that time with the Lord. i know that might sound weird but all that time gives me an opportunity to be alone with the Lord and meditate on scripture or worship songs. one song in particular seems to be on repeat lately. “our deliverer” by evan wickham has gotten me thinking about what the Lord delivers me from. often i focus on the fact that he delivers me from current trouble, and somehow forget the ultimate deliverance of an eternity in hell, apart from Him. which gets me thinking about all that i’m currently facing in life and realizing just how temporal and tiny it is in comparison. i’ve been challenged a lot the past few weeks to adjust my perspective on almost everything. it really is all about perspective. having the perspective of eternity, and maintaining the perspective that all that i do in this life is for His glory.
“hallelujah
what a Savior
worthy is the lamb
our deliverer.
mighty fortress
for the righteous
saved to glorify
our deliverer.”
