All I Have is Christ

Last night there was an event at church where we spent time praying for persecuted believers. I had the opportunity to lead a time of worship and we played the song "All I have is Christ." It was the last song of the musical worship time. We sang through the chorus of that song without hardly any instrumentation and it was a powerful time of sensing God's presence.

"Hallelujah all I have is Christ, Hallelujah Jesus is my life."

If we believe that to be true then Jesus is all we need. Jesus is our life. Without Him we are nothing, but with Him we have a purpose we have a meaning in life. It was just amazing reminder and sensing His presence.

I also had the opportunity to play guitar in a band at Mountain Ridge Church on Sunday morning and the message was about just quieting your soul and hearing God speak. "Remember you aren't feeding the root, the root is feeding you." He is feeding us. We just need to take time and be with Him. As Shauna and I sat in church I mentioned to her a verse I thought was funny and so I  told her multiple times, "So don't get cocky and strut your branch." (Romans 11:20 MSG) Without the root the branch is nothing. Without Jesus we are nothing. All I have is Christ. It was just cool to see that idea come full circle from the morning to the evening.

It was a reminder for me to be aware because God is always working!

Here's the song for those who don't know it.
