Day 16: Applications

You know what I absolutely dread? Applications. Applications for colleges, scholarships, clubs, etc. They just bug me to death. I can't stand entering in every bit of my education for the past 14 years. I think college should be FREE! Not really, because then teachers wouldn't get paid and I can't have that. But I don't like this. Sending in my resume to people and places is just annoying. What does your resume look like? Not your physical one, but your spiritual one. Does God see you as one standing out for him? Casting Crowns has the song "Lifesong" that I love to listen to.

Empty Hands held high

Such Small sacrifice

If not joined with my life

I sing in vain tonight

May the words I say

And the things I do 

Make my lifesong sing

Bring a smile to you

Chorus:

Let my lifesong sing to You

Let my lifesong sing to You

I want to sign your name

to the end of this day

Knowing that my heart was true

Let my lifesong sing to You

LORD, I give my life

A Living sacrifice

To reach a world in need

To be your hands and feet

So may the words I say

And the things I do

Make my lifesong sing

Bring a smile to You

Chorus

Hallelujah, Hallelujah,

Let my lifesong sing to You (x3)

Chorus (x2)

I want my lifesong to sing to Him. To sing praises to His name, to speak wonders of His glory. He is so unimaginably great that I cannot possibly hate sending my resume to Him. I do, however, cower at the idea of sending it to the Great God on high. Because I am a sinner. I have a blemished record. The great part is, I don't have to show it. God sees the resume of his Son. His wonderful glorious perfect Son. "For those He forknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, So that He would be the firstborn among many brothers." Romans 8:29. God has predetermined that we would be in the image of Christ. I like that resume ha.
