Like so many of the pop-oriented videos today, this one seems to focus more on the artist than on the song itself. However, the words of this tune are worth a listen as they describe what all of us as Christians should be striving for: to be on fire for God. Minimize the window if you choose and then listen to the heart's cry expressed in the lyrics.
--Krystal Meyers - Fire
We often wallow in our shame and guilt in our private moments over past sins and ways we have fallen short in our walk with God. Worse still is when we lock up our sordid memories into mind-closets that we never open even to ourselves for fear of exposure. This creates a delusion that they are gone, but instead they fester inside us like a cancer, waiting for the right time to consume us.
The irony is that God knows already how we've blown it and has the perfect one-two combination to relieve us of our woes: forgiveness and grace. The former is given as we confess and repent of our sins, but, the latter is even more astounding. Grace: undeserved favor. It is something we rarely give but is something we have received from God in unbelievable measure.
This Sunday's video extols the beauty of this precious gift from God.
