Revolution anyone?

Hi everyone,

I’m excited. Really excited – which is always a good way to start the weekend :o)
You see four amazing people (well, three and me) are out there allowing God to influence them as they write stuff for the next Fusion devotional. Now that excites me! Man – I can’t begin to tell you how bubbly I feel.

I have been working away on part I am writing and in doing so I was reminded of this hymn by Isaac Watts:
When I survey the wondrous cross
on which the Prince of glory died,
my richest gain I count but loss,
and pour contempt on all my pride.

Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
save in the death of Christ my God:
all the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to his blood.

See, from his head, his hands, his feet,
sorrow and love flow mingled down:
did e’er such love and sorrow meet,
or thorns compose so rich a crown?

Were the whole realm of nature mine,
that were an off’ring far too small;
love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all.

Massive! What a hymn of revolution!!!!!
Sing it to yourself [loud, real loud] – pray it over yourself – live it.
