I’m created for You alone

Every now and then the Spirit burns something special into a person’s heart. With it comes a sense of completeness and wholeness. It’s a feeling of satisfaction and happiness that only God can give. These moments are rare. You know beyond knowing in such times that nothing in this world, no amount of stuff, will ever measure up to what Jesus Christ offers us. You wish to be wrapped in that kind of closeness forever. And you will!

Just think on Paul’s words to the Corinthians, "Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror dimly, but then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part, then I will know fully, even as I am fully known."(1 Corinthians 13:12). Sometimes, for me, these moments issue forth in songs of worship. My prayer is that the Holy Spirit might draw you into a living encounter with our heavenly Father through the lyrics of this song.

Faithful Lord, fill my cup
With Your grace and love
Your grace and love
The pleasures that this world’s sure of
Will never be enough
Can never be enough

Cause I’m created for You alone
Bought with a price I’m not my own
Seated in the heavenlies
And there’s no place I’d rather be
Than with You, forever Lord
You are my treasure.
