So how did the whole love unconditionally experiment go for you yesterday? Yeah, not so good here, either. This whole dying to self stuff is hard…or is it? Could it be as simple as turning it over to our Father? Let’s find out!
Listen to this song by Shaun Groves titled, “Welcome Home.” Make it your heart’s cry to the Father this morning and throughout the day as each situation arises and let’s see how the day goes.
Let me know if there’s a difference in trying to live a life of unconditional love from our flesh and trying to gut it out versus living it out in the power of God’s Spirit.
Welcome Home by Shaun Groves
Take me, make me All You want me to be
That's all I'm asking, all I'm asking
Welcome to this heart of mine
I've buried under prideful vines
Grown to hide the mess I've made
Inside of me, come decorate,
Lord Open up the creaking door
And walk upon the dusty floor
Scrape away the guilty stains
Until no sin or shame remain
Spread Your love upon the walls
And occupy the empty halls
Until the man I am has faded
No more doors are barricaded
Chorus: Come inside this Heart of mine it's
Not my own Make it home
Come and take this Heart and make it All Your own
Welcome home
Take a seat, pull up a chair
Forgive me for the disrepair
And the souvenirs from floor to ceiling
Gathered on my search for meaning
Every closet's filled with clutter
Messes yet to be discovered
I'm overwhelmed, I understand
I can't make this place all that You can
I took the space that You placed in me
Redecorated in shades of greed
And I made sure every door stayed locked
Every window blocked, and still You knocked
Take me, make me All You want me to be
That's all I'm asking, all I'm asking
