It’s the broken, hurting heart reaching up to the sky
It’s praying, trusting God without asking reasons why
It’s Truth clung to when all hope seems out of sight
It’s letting go of the world and living in His might
It’s marching on in a climate of hostility and fear
It’s faith, the certainty and assurance He is near
It’s knowing the Savior; receiving His salvation
It’s about serving Him in grateful appreciation
It’s single-mindedness; a life under His direction
It’s victory in the power of Christ’s resurrection
Philippians 3:8-11 (NASB)
8 More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ,
9 and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith,
10 that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death;
11 in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
