Word
Clouds on Facebook are fun
As
I wait to see what words I use most
But
it got me thinking, what would the Word Cloud reveal
If
it followed me around each day
What
would be exposed if it recorded every word spoken
Every
word shared in a text or email or online
Would
they be words of life or death
Words
that build up or tear down, truth or lies
Would
it reveal my sinful, selfish heart
Or
my love for the Lord
Would
it be good and pleasing to You Lord
Or
would it reveal why I so desperately need a Savior
Even
more sobering
What
if there was a Word Cloud that captured my thoughts
The
thoughts I edit out, because even this sinner knows
There
are some things that shouldn’t be said
Lord
I know that You record my every word, thought and deed
There
will come a day when I will give an account to You
Thank
You Lord for providing Your Son, my Savior
To
pay the penalty for my sin debt
If
I were to be cast in to hell for eternity
I
could never pay for all my sins against infinite Holy God
Thank
You, Jesus, for dying for my sin
That
I might be forgiven and granted eternal life
Thank
You for the gift of Your Word which sanctifies me
Thank
You for the Holy Spirit who dwells within
Help
me to live each day
Mindful
that I will give account to You
For
every thought, word and deed
Help
me to choose well and live out of love for You
