The Homestead Way of Life

He is Everything

Please check out the short video clip I have added to my sidebar on the right (under "Recent Entries").  My 16-year-old daughter shared this with me and I cannot put into words how much this short musical skit touched my heart.  Guy and I were in youth ministry for many years before we had our own children and we still have a great concern for the young people we know.  This presentation is very powerful and has the potential to reach young people when other methods might fail. I feel like it tells my own story as a youth.  I urge you to share it with family and friends.  Here is the link on GodTube (the Christian alternative to YouTube):

Lifehouse Everything Skit

The other reason I find this so moving is the lyrics to the song, "Everything".  These young men found the perfect words to express how I feel about the Lord Jesus.

Find me here, speak to me

I want to feel You, I need to hear You

You are the light, that is leading me

To the place where I find peace...again

You are the strength that keeps me walking

You are the hope that keeps me trusting

You are the life to my soul

You are my purpose, You are everything

And how can I stand here with You

and not be moved by You?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, You give me rest

You hold me in Your hands, You won't let me fall

You still my heart and You take my breath away

Would you take me in?  Would you take me deeper now?

'Cause You're all I want, You're all I need

You're everything, everything

You're all I want, You're all I need

You're everything, everything

I teach a youth drama team at church and we did this same play for an Extreme Worship service where all the youth groups from around the city come together. It was a big hit, I love it when everybody cheers when Jesus throws all the "sins" off. It really gives the kids - and everybody - hope.
