Crazy

Posted by Sam

I recently bought the 'Spoken For' CD by MercyMe, and theres a song that caught my attention this week. Its called Crazy.



'Why I would I spend my life longing for the day that it would end..Why would I spend my time pointing to another man..Isn't that crazy

How can I find hope in dying, with promises unseen..How can I learn your way is better In everything I'm taught to be..Isn't that crazy

I have not been called to the wisdom of this world..But to a God who's calling out to me..And even though the world may think I'm losing touch with reality It would be crazy To choose this world over eternity

And if I boast let me boast Of filthy rags made clean And if I glory let me glory In my Savior's suffering Isn't that crazy And as I live this daily life I trust you for everything And I will only take a step When I feel You leading me Isn't that crazy

I have not been called to the wisdom of this world..But to a God who is calling out to me..And even though the world my think I'm losing touch with reality It would be crazy To choose this world over eternity Call me crazy You can call me crazy Call me crazy'



I love the lyrics in that song, I think the chorus is the part that really caught my attention. I love that we arent called to the wisdom of this world, but we are called to a God whos calling out to each of us. I think I've needed to be reminded of that lately, that Im called to chase after a God who has a plan for my life, and has called me by name to be his daughter and to love him with my whole heart. Theres something so special about that, and so sacred to my heart. All to often I let things of this world distract me from hearing Gods voice calling my name. I want to listen to His voice, loud and clear, calling my name, guiding me to the place that Im called to be, [ wherever that may be, one country or another] and however radical or crazy it may seem to this world, I want to answer that call, and run after His voice whole-heartedly, and never look back with eyes of fear or regret. I never want to get caught up in the things of this world, that would keep me from answering His call. I need to keep my focus on God and listen to where he's calling me, wherever that may be, one country or another. After all, it would be crazy to choose this world over eternity.
