Dear Readers,
I love this song because it reminds me of what I still don't know, what I assume to know, what I think I know, and how I need to draw even closer to Him to know and understand more. It reminds of what I forget and should be thankful for, as well as of who He is and how small I am, yet He created me and you to bring glory to His name. I'm sorry if it seems like I am writing in circles, but it is all relative. If we want to worship the Lord with our whole heart, we have to deal with our big heads.
When I hear this song, I am humbled and stand in awe. I knock myself off my high-horse and return to the place where I belong. If I ever thought I knew it all and or am always right, I am corrected. We all have our moments and arguments with others and God! Sometimes when we have walked with the Lord a while and gotten used to the Christian lifestyle, we forget where we came from. But I thank God for anointed songs sent to minister to us and get us back on track.
When I became saved, I wondered what do I know of holy, and here I am today back to that starting place: Lord, I do not know it all, and I am not always right. You know it all. You are always right. Show me your ways oh Lord and let my life be a gift of worship to you!
When we have been with the Father, we have dined at His table, and been in His presence, we become aware of who we are in relationship to Him. In the passage below, Isaiah is having a meeting place with God. He is overwhelmed with God. He quickly becomes aware of his human condition as He looks upon the Father. That is how I feel when I hear this song! It brings me to my knees and much closer to Him every time!
Isaiah 6:1-5 1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. 2 Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. 3 And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.”4 At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.5 “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty.” (Biblegateway.com NIV)
