Healer

So, Hillsong has a new live cd coming out. I was excited about that, you know since I sing a lot of their songs on Sunday mornings at our church. But I became much much more excited after watching this video....

Healer. I mean we always see Christ healing people, and we always pray for healing in our lives, spiritual and physical. But sometimes, personally, I forget to believe that he will. Some of those prayers for healing just hit my ceiling and land back on my lap cause I just do it out of habit.

I am sick. I got sick 3 days ago, a huge massive cold...in the middle of summer. Gay. And when I get sick, I am grumpy. I treat people bad and complain. Plus on top of that we had to move out of our apartment to a different one, so I was just a ball of mad. Then I watch this video and it put so much in perspective. This man with cancer still finds it "easy" to worship Christ and thank him for everything, then here I am complaining about a little snot.

We can praise God all the time, thanking him for all the blessings, the sunshine, the people in our lives, the clothes we have and ect... But this becomes worship, when we thank him inspite of not having blessings, not having that sunshine or clothes. That is when TRUE worship begins. Look at Job, he has nothing at the end, his friends are all telling him to just die and curse God. And he says, no. He doesnt understand why this is happening, but he stands firm and worships God anyhow. And that is what this video is an example of.

Remember that worship isnt just putting your hands in the air because you like a song, or singing in a "worship" service. Its a lifestyle.
