Hi guys, thanks for letting me post things onto our youth blog. It's good to see a blog to inspire the youths. Hopefully more of the youths will look at it though. Haha.. anyway, how's things in Ignyte. I know about youth camp and most probably I'll be going. Haha... Actually the reason I wanted to post this was to introduce you guys to a song. It's called 'Voice Of Truth' by Casting Crowns. This song has been speaking to me lately and it helped a lot. I hope it will help you too.
VOICE OF TRUTH
Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out His hand
But the waves are calling out my name
But the waves are calling out my name
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy, you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"
Chorus:
But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
The voice of truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant
With just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand
But the giant's calling out my name
But the giant's calling out my name
And he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"
Bridge:
But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
From on top of them looking down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me
This song is from the movie Facing the Giants. I hope maybe you all could watched that video. Anyway, I hope this song will encourage you all to continue to believe in Jesus no matter what. Though you think that you cannot do it alone, just remember that God is always by your side telling you what to do. He's the Voice of truth. Dont let circumstances pull you down. Just continue to choose and believe in God. Take care!!!
P.S. I posted the link whereby you can listen to the song. I tried uploading the video but it couldn't. If you want the song, ask me and I'll send it to you through email. Hehe...
