The Way I was Made

I recently bought the new Chris Tomlin album.
Right now my favourite song on it is "The Way I Was Made."
The lines in the chorus are awesome, but my favourite line is..
"I want to be the man I was meant to be, I want to be the way I was made"

The way that I was made!! Have you ever stopped to think about the way that you were created? The way that you were meant to live your life? To be able to put complete trust in our Lord and not worry about tomorrow? To have the freedom to not be afraid?

I think that this song is a challenge just to think about how it is that God created you...and are you living up to that?

The Way I was Made - Chris Tomlin

Caught in the half-light, I'm caught alone
Waking up to the sunrise and the radio
Feels like I'm tied up, what's holding me?
Just praying today will be the day I go free

I want to live like there's no tomorrow
I want to dance like no one's around
I want to sing like nobody's listening
Before I lay my body down
I want to give like I have plenty
I want to love like I'm not afraid
I want to be the man I was meant to be
I want to be the way I was made

Made in Your likeness, made with Your hands
Made to discover who You are and who I am
All I've forgotten help me to find
All that You've promised let it be in my life

Wanting to dance like noones around. I've done that and it's so freeing. No matter how ridiculous I look. That's the key. Who cares as long as you're delighting in Christ.

Keep challenging and asking
