What do you want?

The life of King Solomon has always intrigued me. He was a man truly blessed by God. His wisdom is still spoken of even to this day.His love for women and his fall are also spoken of to this day. His story lives on. While talking to God today, after reading about David and his encounters with Saul, I realised that David never made a move if God didn't tell him to. I also realised that whatever David enquired about from God he was answered. God never left David hanging. When God asked Solomon what he wanted most in the world, Solomon asked for wisdom to rule. I sat there thinking what would I have done in that situation. I smiled when i thought about it because I want so many things right now. But I can safely and honestly say that all i want at the moment is more of God. I want to please him, to bring him glory in everything that I do. Oh the awesomness of God! I am never satisfied with where I am in Christ. And I dont ever want to be. I want to chase after God all the days of my life. What do I want, I want more of Jesus, what do you want?

Verse I
Each and everyday I will seek Your face
My soul is crying out
for more, I want more of You
I won't be satisfied(Satisfied) nor content with where I am
So I will apprehend 'till I'm captured by what I'm after

Chorus
And I will go from faith to faith
From glory to glory (2x)

And I'll forever be chasing after You
I'll be chasing after You (2x)

Verse II
I will press towards the mark
for the prize and I won't faint
there's one thing I desire
and that's what I'm going for
I can't continue life day by day
growing dry
I need to be with You (Jesus)
I'll seek where You are

Chorus
And I will go from faith to faith
From glory to glory (4x)

And I'll forever be chasing after You
I'll be chasing after You (14x) [Build Up Included]

And I will go from faith to faith
From glory to glory (3x)

(I'll never get settled. I'll always want more of You, Jesus!
I'll always be chasing after You!)

And I'll forever be chasing after You
I'll be chasing after You

More then a song.

God truly requires more than a song. We sing it, we say it but do we live it. On my journey to really become like Christ I have really been examining how much we go thought the motions of our Christianity. The Christian thing to to is to raise your hand in worship, the Christian thing to do it to pray everyday, the Christian thing to do is to be a good person. Do we do these things out of routine, ritual and obligation or do we do them because we love the Lord. When we sing I'll give you more than a song he requires a living sacrifice. when we sing I give myself away, it means the same. God requires us not because he says we should but because we love him. So, is your service to God out of obligation or out of love. Think about it and then decide what your going to do about it.
