As I mentioned on my last post, one thing I am truly thankful for is music. I can spend hours singing along to soundtracks, watching dvds, listening to cds or watching videos on youtube. One of my favorite songs is called 'Find us Faithful' by Steve Greem. In case some of you may not know the words of the song they are as follows:

We're pilgrims on the journey
Of the narrow road
And those who've gone before us line the way
Cheering on the faithful, encouraging the weary
Their lives a stirring testament to God's sustaining grace
Surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses
Let us run the race not only for the prize
But as those who've gone before us
Let us leave to those behind us
The heritage of faithfulness passed on through godly lives


Chorus:
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
May the fire of our devotion light their way
May the footprints that we leave
Lead them to believe
And the lives we live inspire them to obey
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful


After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone
And our children sift though all we've left behind
May the clues that they discover and the memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find


The words of the chorus inspire and encourage me to continue on this Christian journey. And it has become my prayer that those who come behind me will find me faithful. I think about the lives of those who I come in contact with at work, at church, at home. And especially as I teach Sunday School I know that there are so many who are coming behind me who are looking at my life to be that Godly witness and example to them. And so its my prayer that I will be found faithful. Faithful to God & faithful in my commitment to serve Him all my days.
