“Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine; Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God, Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.”
Is this you? Do you have the blessed assurance? Do you see yourself as an heir of salvation? Do you realize that accepting Jesus as Lord you have been born of His Spirit? Do you praise Him all the day long? Is this your story, your song? Perhaps a great number of questions, but this can be… the decision is yours.
If you don’t have the assurance, then what is your story? Because every story is important and bears witness of who we are and how we became to be who and what we are. Growth and continuing to become all we’re destined to be is available as we take hold of this. But right now, right here – can you ‘sing’ your story? More important – are you adding verses to your song?
One of the first things I learned in my walk with the Lord is that I can’t deny who I’ve become. That only cheapens who the Lord is and what He has purchased for me. Denying that I am an heir, born of His Spirit would be denigrating all He went through so that I could become all He has for me. Admittedly, I really hadn’t looked at it in this way – it’s called false modesty. Truly we are to proclaim loudly who we now are because of who and what the Lord did for man, even if (you) I was the only one.
“This is my story, this is my song. Praising my Savior all the day long.
This is my story, this is my song, Praising my Savior all the day long.”
