When we’re young, we typically sing lyrics of songs without realizing the lessons we’re learning along the way. Some lessons stick; others don’t. Some we could benefit from revisiting now that we’re older, such as…

This Little Light of Mine.

This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine. This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine. This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine. Let it shine, Let it shine, Let it shine.

 How are you letting your light shine today?

O Be Careful, Little Eyes.

O be careful little eyes what you see. O be careful little eyes what you see. There’s a Father up above and he’s looking down in love, so, be careful little eyes what you see.

God wants you to discern how you’re living – what you’re seeing, hearing, saying and what you’re doing – because he wants the very best for you. How are you setting aside what you want for yourself and letting God’s desires and will for you consume your life?

The B-I-B-L-E.

The B-I-B-L-E. Yes, that’s the book for me. I stand alone on the Word of God: The B-I-B-L-E.

Are you standing firmly on God’s Word? How is it making a difference in your life today?

Deep and Wide.

Deep and wide, deep and wide. There’s a fountain flowing deep and wide.

God provides everything you need. How are you relying on him every moment of every day, trusting him to pour his endless love, strength, and guidance into you?

I’ve Got The Joy In My Heart.

I’ve got the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart. Where? Down in my heart! Where? Down in my heart! I’ve got the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart. Down in my heart to stay.

Happiness is circumstantial, but joy is chronic because it is fruit of God’s Spirit. Joy resides within you. How are you tapping into it today?

I’m in the Lord’s Army.

I may never march in the infantry, ride in the cavalry, shoot the artillery. I may never fly o’er the enemy, but I’m in the Lord’s army! Yes Sir!

How are you invested in and committed to biblical community today?

I Am a C-H-R-I-S-T-I-A-N.

I am a C. I am a C-H. I am a C-H-R-I-S-T-I-A-N. And I have C-H-R-I-S-T in my H-E-A-R-T. And I will L-I-V-E   E-T-E-R-N-A-L-L-Y!

What’s on the inside spills out. Is your faith permeating your life from the inside out? How is it apparent in your life today?
