There is a line in the song that says: So I lay down my life to make room for you. In order to get more of the Lord, we have to be willing to set ourselves aside. Our selfish wants, our fleshly desires, and our own pursuits have all got to fall in the face of our Father. We have to trust in God's love for us and that He knows what is best for us, can give us what we need, and can take us to better places than we can ever dream of.
When Jesus called His disciples, they literally walked away from everything. They left their families, their jobs, their homes... all to follow Christ. And their willingness to give it all up took them to places of greatness in God. Are you willing to give it all up to reach your great place in the Lord?
Today, put aside yourself and make room for more of the Lord in your life. Put down the phone, turn off the blogs, shut off the television, and get in God's presence. Sneak away and wrap yourself in personal time with the Lord.
Got a few minutes? Get some worship time right now and watch this:
Verse of the Day: For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness. Psalm 84:10
