Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. (Romans 12:1 MSG) So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life-your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life-and place it before God as an offering. (James 4:8 & 10 ESV) Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you… Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.

One of the ways the Lord deals with me during my personal time of worship and prayer is through music. It is a time where we are seeking the face and direction of God for the year. This morning we continue our new series, “ Maximizing 2015 by God’s GREAT GRACE.” The beginning of a new year is always a time of consecration, rededication and special worship for my family, as it is for countless believers all over the world.
