God of This City


Katie and I just recently bought Chris Tomlin's newest cd, "Hello Love."  His fourth track is called "God of This City" and as I listened to the lyrics for the first time, the Lord instantly turned my mind to the people of Vancouver.  God is God, and we are not.  He is in control, and His will is sovereign.  He choose to use us as broken, dirty, and useless vessels to carry out His cause and His kingdom!  What an incredible and humbling privilege and calling!  As I listened to this song the Spirit of God just burned in my heart, and I became so excited for the future ministry and the people of Vancouver, BC which God has divinely given us a burden to reach with the Gospel!  Ironically, the week in which we bought the cd was so hectic that Katie and I didn't see each other until several days later, and when we finally had some down time we immediately asked each other about this song, and we both felt the Spirit of God moving our minds and thoughts to the ministry and people of Vancouver!  

"Lord use us as you want whatever the cost.  By faith we'll preach your Gospel till our dying breath!  Let your kingdom come.  Let your will be done, so that everyone might know your name!  Let your song be heard everywhere on earth.  Until your sovereign work on earth is done!  Let your kingdom come!"
