The Proof of Your Love

This is one of my favorite new songs.  
Things I think about as I listen to this song....Does my life have proof that I am a follower of Christ?  Does my life have proof of His love?  Am I kind, loving, caring, understanding to those around me, even when they may push my buttons or disappoint me?  When I serve others, work in ministry, give to those around me, is it for the right reasons of giving it all because of Christ?  If my heart and motives aren't pure, and for the purpose of giving and living for Christ, then it's shallow, self-serving, and it brings burnout, hurt, and frustration.  However, when I keep the focus of all I do on Christ, then I know it has meaning and purpose because it's for Him.


THE PROOF OF YOUR LOVE 

For King and Country

If I sing but don't have love
I waste my breathe with every song
I bring, an empty voice
A hollow noise

If I speak with a silver tongue
Convince a crowd but don't have love
I leave a bitter taste
With every word I say

So let my life be the proof
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You
And what You're made of
How you lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof
The proof of Your love

If I give to a needy soul
But don't have love then who is poor
It seems all the poverty
Is found in me

When it's all said and done
When we sing our final song

Only love remains
Only love remains
