This is a verse from a Shane and Shane song that has been on repeat in my car/classroom/ipod for a few weeks now:

So here I am 

got my deeds for the day 

all my cute little words about 

how I am saved

am i saved?

I love you with my mouth like a church kid should

at the end of the day

my words get burned as wood

oh, but i was good

I have been convicted of this so much in my life lately.  Our pastor spoke about how some of us live our lives as "functional atheist" a few Sundays ago.  We say with our mouths that we are Christians, we are even "good" and do the "right" things but we are not being transformed by the renewing of our minds (romans 12:2) or working it out with our hands (actually living it out on a daily basis, missions, etc).  

My prayer is that I would be transformed by the renewing of my mind.  That He would give me the spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him. (Ephesians 1:17)  That the eyes of my heart would be opened.  That I would begin to really know him and that my heart would be moved and changed.  

Here is the chorus from the Shane and Shane song. this has become the cry of my heart because I know i cannot be changed on my own -

so i beg for you to move

i beg for you to move

i beg for you to break through
