Ek is Suid Afrikan

A seed remains alone until it dies

We live to make You famous.

 Right now I am listening to a song. It’s entitled point of difference, and it’s the opening track to United Live’s newest album. The CD actually came in the mail yesterday, and I was incredibly excited to get it and listen to it.

I think worship has a way of putting things in perspective like nothing else can. I have never been more challenged by a song like I have the songs on this album. In terms of putting into words an expression of what Christianity is, this adventure we talk about living. This calling the echoes from somewhere past eternity to live for somthing that is so extraordinarily bigger than ourselves.

A pursuit of love, hope, peace, and justice. Four words that are bigger than the world. Four words that are bigger than fear, hate, depression, hoplessness, isolation… four words that shatter all that this world has to offer and four words that are expressed through one Person.

Right now I am electrified. Because all that Christianity is, all that it can be summed up into, all that it implies in one line from a song: “We live to make You famous.”
