To know You is to want to know You more...

"To know you is never worry for my life, and
To know you is to never to give in or compromise
To know you is to want to tell the world about you
Cause I can't live without you

To know you is to hear your voice when you are calling
To know you is to catch my brother when he is falling
To know you is to feel the pain of the broken hearted
Cause they can't live with out you.

More than my next breath
More than life or death
All reaching for, I live my life to know you more
I leave it all behind, you are all that satisfies
To know you is to want to know you more
To know you is to want to know you more

To know you is to ache for more than ordinary
To know you is to look beyond the temporary
To know you is believing that you will be enough
Cause there is no life without you


All this life could offer me, could not compare to you
Compare to you
And I count it all as lost, compared to knowing you
Knowing you


Compared to you
Compared to you
And I count it all as lost, compared to knowing you
Knowing you
And I count it all as lost, compared to knowing you
Knowing you"

I was having lunch with my family and a friend today and was listening to some things that my daddy had to say. He has a friend who is going through some rough times right now and was explaining his friend's outlook on the situation. This man has just been saved and his faith is really taking off. He told my dad that no matter what happens with his life, as long as he has his Bible and his Purple Book (a book about Biblical foundations), he knows that he will be ok. That story about brought tears to my eyes. It made me ask myself, "Do I really think like that? If I were to lose everything tomorrow, except my Bible, would I truly be ok?" Really, think about it... if you woke up tomorrow and could not walk, do physical activity or even lost every sort of financial stability you thought you had, would you be ok?

Do I truly have enough faith in God to depend on Him for absolutely everything? Something to think about as you're going through your daily routine today...
