Beautiful Ending

Are we influencing the world or is the world influencing us?  I recently revisited the Daniel study by Beth Moore.  It’s one of my favorites because it seems so relevant in our time.  Our world right now is arguably a modern day Babylon.

How can I live out my faith?  What do I want others to see in me?  If I want to be a change, I can’t just fit in and go with the flow.  If there is nothing in me that’s different, nothing that sets me apart, then what possible change can I be effecting?  

When the curtains are pulled back on my life and my deeds are examined and judged.  I don’t want to regret.  I don’t want to wish I lived differently.  I want to make sure I am using every opportunity given.  If I miss the mark, I pray that opportunity comes around again.

I want to hear, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” (Matthew 25:21)

I want a beautiful ending.

Oh tragedy has taken so many | Love lost cause they

all forgot who You were | And it scares me to think

that I would choose my life over You | Oh my

selfish heart divides me | from You, it tears us

apart | So tell me | What is our ending? | Will it be

beautiful, so beautiful? | Oh how do I let myself

let go | Of hands that painted the stars and hold

tears that fall? | And the pride of my heart makes

me | forget it’s not me but you | Who makes the

heart beat, I’m lost without you and you’re dying

for me Chorus So tell me | What is our ending?

Will it be beautiful, so beautiful? | Will my life

Find me by Your side? | Your love is beautiful, so

beautiful | At the end of it all | I want to be in Your
