The Lost Get Found-Britt Nicole

"Hello my friend
I remember when you were
So alive with your wide eyes
Then the light that you had in your heart was stolen
Now you say that it ain't worth stayin'
You wanna run but you're hesitatin'
I'm talkin' to me

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

So when you get the chance
Are you gonna take it?
There's a really big world at your fingertips
And you know you have the chance to change it
There's a girl on the streets, she's cryin'
There's a man whose faith is dyin'
Love is calling you

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

Why do we go with the flow
Or take an easier road?
Why are we playin' it safe?
Love came to show us the way
Love is a chance we should take
I'm movin' out of the way

Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out'
Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
(Stand out)
Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
(Stand out)
'Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found

So when you get the chance
Are you gonna take it?
There's a really big world at your fingertips
And you know you have the chance to change it"


Somebody, somewhere needs a reason to believe. Have i ever been the reason? Will me standing out ever bring someone to Christ? I don't know. And i'll probably never know if just by smiling of saying a kind word to someone will ever make a difference. If people see something different in me because i don't cuss or believe in sex before marriage, or because i believe in the Living God. Can i make an eternal difference in someones life just by being me? I don't want my light to go out not only for my benefit but also for anyone who could see it. I truly believe my main purpose in life is to bring glory to God in whatever way i can. He doesn't need me but he wants me. Adn i want to fufill my purpost to the best of my abilities. That is impossible on my own, that is why I'm so grateful to that God on my side no matter what.

"Come near to God and He will come near to you." James 4:8

I was reading in Revelation where God has Seven Bowls of His Wrath. He is pouring then on the people and of course they didn't like it. It gave them sores, sea turned to blood; they were seared with intense heat; they lived in complete darkness; their water dried up; and then there was a huge earthquake and other things. And after every bowl they would not repent. If they just asked God for forgiveness God would have stopped. But they refused to give up their pride or whatever it was that brought them to that point. So I've never had to experience a plaque from God but i do know how it feels not to repent. To feel like I can't go back to God because I've been gone for so long. If you are stopping yourself from asking forgiveness from God you are only hurting yourself. You are putting up the wall between you and God. He wants to come in and help but He will never force himself on anyone. He wants you to want Him. It is so easy to put God in the back of your mind and put others things before Him. But you will never reach the true full Godly potential in your life. Apart from Him i can do nothing.
