Scotty G's Place

I thank God for so many of the little things in life that speak to me. Like the new tobyMac CD which is really great:

Father God, I am clay in your hands
Help me to stay that way through all life's demands
'Cause they chip and they nag and they pull at me
And every little thing I make up my mind to be
Like I'm gonna be a daddy whose in the mix
And I'm gonna be a husband who stays legit
And I pray that I'm an artist who rises above the road that is wide and filled with self love
Everything that I see draws me
Though its only in You that I can truly see that its a feast for the eyes - a low blow to purpose
And I'm a little kid at a three ring circus

I don't want to gain the whole world and lose my soul
Don't wanna walk away let me hear the people say
I don't want to gain the whole world and lose my soul
Don't wanna walk away let me hear the people say

I love that line, "I'm a little kid at a three ring circus." It says so clearly how great and wonderful are the things the Father has in store for us, his people. This song reminds me to watch what I'm aiming for in life, I just might miss out on the really great stuff!
