Just Curious
Who or what did you think God was going to use
To
Make
You
Holy
Your neighbor
No
You could move
Did you think He was going to use
Your friends or employees
No
They wont always tell you the truth
Because they don’t live with you
They don’t know the truth
And your employees well they want you to pay them
Or maybe did you think God was going to use
Your Pastor
To
Make
You
Holy
I dont know about you
But I want my Pastor to like me
He might not like me if he knows whats in my head
No
This is who and what God wants to use
To make you Holy
He wants to use
You
Your Spouse
And your marriage
To make you BOTH Holy
Don’t miss out on the greatest opportunity of your life
Don’t miss out on becoming like Jesus
Because when you become like Jesus
Miracles take place
The kind of miracles
You need
We need
The world needs
I’m all about seeing my broken leg healed in an instant
But if my leg gets healed
And my husband leaves me
What good is my leg
I can deal with a broken leg
But my husband leaving me
Well that’s another story
And its not a good one
Don’t
You
Miss
This
Don’t miss out
Cry out to God
Say
Fix my blind eyes
All I can see is the splinter in his eye
Her eye
I am blind to the log in my own eye
I truly cannot see it
Help me Lord
Make me HOLY
Hebrew 5:7-14
During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him and was designated by God to be high priest in the order of Melchizedek.
We have much to say about this, but it is hard to make it clear to you because you no longer try to understand. In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food! Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. BUT SOLID FOOD IS FOR THE MATURE, WHO BY CONSTANT USE HAVE TRAINED THEMSELVES TO DISTINGUISH GOOD AND EVIL.
This is a very telling verse!
One more thing…
As I wrote this post I kept thinking about this song Donnie McClurkin wrote several years ago that I led as a worship leader MANY times and sang as others led it many many more times. I had NO IDEA what I was singing!!! I am beginning to know what this means now. Honestly though my life, our life, is unbelievably awesome becoming Holy is still hard. Not going to lie!!!
Holiness Is What I Long For
Holiness, holiness is what I long for
Holiness is what I need
Holiness, holiness is what You

Holiness, holiness is what I long for
Holiness is what I need
Holiness, holiness is what You

So, take my heart and form it
Take my mind and transform it
Take my will and conform it
To Yours, to Yours, oh, Lord
Faithfulness, faithfulness is what Ilong for
Faithfulness is what I need

Brokenness, brokenness is what
You want from me
