Beauty for ashes
A garment of praise for my heaviness
Beauty for ashes
Take this heart of stone
And make it Yours
Make it Yours

I delight myself in the Richest of Fair
Trading all that I have
For all that is better
A garment of praise for my heaviness
You are the greatest taste
You're the Richest of Fair

You are better, so much better
You taste better than all the world...

That song has been in my head for the past couple of days. It's a beautiful song...but does it really speak my heart? Do I really delight myself in the Lord, or is my focus more on the things of this world? If my Savior is truly better than all the world, how can I help but delight myself in Him? How can I help but trade my filthy rags of attempted righteousness for His righteousness through Jesus Christ?
Lord, blind my eyes to the things of this world. Let my heart's desire be You and You alone. Let me delight myself in You, for You are better than all the world. Thank you for grace, dear Jesus. Grace that is greater than all my sin!

Until next time...
