To Know You

 Day Four- My View on Religion

To know You is to never worry for my life
To know You is to never give into compromise and
To know You is to want to tell the world about You
'Cause I can't live without You
More than my next breath
More than life or death
All I'm reaching for, I live my life
To know You more
I leave it all behind, You're all that satisfies
To know You is to want to know You more
To know You is to want to know You more
All this life could offer me
Could not compare to You, compare to You
And I count it all as loss
Compared to knowing You, knowing You


I really don't like the word "religion." It makes my faith sound like a routine, or something of habit. It's nothing like that. It's a relationship with Jesus Christ. I may not be the best at praying all the time, or always do the things that make God proud of me, but I receive grace and unending love. Who wouldn't want that? God knows me better than anyone else, including me. He wants to give me the desires of my heart. But he wants me to live for him, and I try and fail on a daily basis to try and be like Jesus. But I'm still loved. It doesn't matter how bad I mess up, I can always turn to Jesus, and He'll always have open arms for me. I love my God with all that I am. All that I'll ever be is His. He's my hero, my Savior.
