Voice of Truth

This morning I listened to the 'voice of truth' song by Casting Crowns and it echoed what we heard in church on Sunday. Where do we get our definition from? Who and what defines you? Is it God, is it your job, your family or  the world? We should be defined by God because He is our author and our creator.  Our dressing, our lifestyles, our spending habits are being influenced by our peers or what we think is the  current trend. That is so false, we need to ask God to define for us who we are in Him and live by His standards. 

Let's choose to listen to the voice of truth which says we are his precious jewels, fearfully and wonderfully made. The voice of truth says, we can do it if we trust him, we are winners and not failures. The voice of truth looks out for our good even when we do not understand. May we strive to seek and listen to God.

Voice Of Truth lyrics
Songwriters: Hall, Mark; Casting Crowns;

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
On to the crashing waves

To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown
Where Jesus is
And He's holding out His hand

But the waves are calling out my name
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed

The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again
"Boy, you'll never win!
You'll never win!"

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I would choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes
To stand before a giant
With just a sling and a stone

Surrounded by the sound
Of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out my name
And he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed

The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again
"Boy you'll never win!
You'll never win!"

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me

The voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I would choose to listen and believe
I would choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
The voice of truth
