MORE

It was the night before Easter and all through the house not a creature was stirring not even a mouse...wait that is not right.  It is the night before Easter and all through the day not a thought of my Savior came my way...until I had a moment to ponder and pray...

As I pondered my mind wondered to the lyrics of  one of my favorite songs

More

By Kenneth Cope

More steady, more sure

More trusted, more pure

Some say it doesn’t matter

More trained and more aware

More aim to get me there

I climb this far

You raised the bar

You want my heart

More fierce desire to stand against the wind

More blazing fire when darkness is closing in

More love inspired changed within

So there’s more and more of me to give

More words to learn and know

More etched upon my soul

Some say it doesn’t matter

More tried, more true

Less me and much more you

I stretch this tall

You sound the call

You want my all.

You keep reaching out, calling out to me for

More strength in shoulders to face the war with sin

More wise and bolder to save the souls of men

A more faithful soldier to the end

You want more and more of me to give

More love, more light

More purpose, more serve with all my might

I need more hope, more faith, more patience

Each day I pray for more

More fire, more zeal

More spirit to know what is real

More courage, more joy

More grateful, more true

More humble to trust and do

You call, I hear, I’ll walk the path that’s set in stone

My heart is set on getting home

And what on earth could ever matter more

In this day and age of selfishness it is the desire of my heart to be MORE like my Savior.  I can't think of anything that should matter more then getting back to my home in Heaven.  Some days it does seem impossible, but I pray for MORE days to try harder. 

I want it to be EASTER "MORE" often!
