When I Look Into Your
Holiness: When I look into Your holiness, When I gaze into Your
loveliness, When all things that surround, Become shadows in the light of
You. When I've found the joy of reaching Your heartWhen my will become enthroned in Your loveWhen all things that surround become shadowsIn the light of You I
worship You, I worship You, The
reason I live is to worship You. I worship
You, I worship You. The
reason I live is to worship You. ~Wayne

want the joy of a close relationship with the Lord? That’s easy enough to answer. The real question is, are you willing to do your part to
get there? This song holds a key. As we
focus our hearts and our minds on worshipping God, we soon realize that
nothing else is more important.
Jesus affirmed that the most important commandment is, “Love the Lord
your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind
and with all your strength.” (Mark 12:30). Far from restricting us, loving the Lord this was meet our
deepest needs. Deeper than our
need for answers, deeper than our need for relief, and deeper than our need
for a miracle is our need to love God.
We were created to do that.
It’s easy to let difficulties consume us, taking our focus off our
loving Father. Whenever we push
worship to the side, however, we lose our way and feel empty. The more wrapped in ourselves we
become, the less satisfied we are.
In contrast, when we unwrap and turn our focus to God, we discover
real life. When we look into His
holiness and gaze into His loveliness, everything else dims into comparison. It’s
hard work to quiet all our other wants and just want God. But when we do, our lives are
changed, our minds are renewed, and our spirits are refreshed. When we worship God, we find that He
fulfils every need and every desire. ~your
