Break Our Hearts

DAILY BYTE

It’s time for us to live the songs we sing
And turn our good intentions into action
To bring the kind of worship You desire
And move beyond our self-absorbed distractions

The mountains are shaking, could this be a great awakening?

Break our hears with the things that break Yours,
Wake us up to see through Your eyes
Break our hearts with the things that break Yours
And send us out to shine in the darkness

It’s time to move outside our comfort zones,
To see beyond our churches and our homes
To change the way we think and how we spend,
Until we look like Jesus again

Break our hears with the things that break Yours,
Wake us up to see through Your eyes
Break our hearts with the things that break Yours
And send us out to shine in the darkness

Here I am, send me to be your hands and feet
Here I am, send me I will go.

GPS POINTS TO PONDER

What does this song say about God?
  • Do you see God as a God of deep compassion and ever-outstreached hand?
What does this song say about People?
  • Try to see others through His eyes - family, friends, the community you live in, community you’d rather pass by... How does this change your relationships with them?
What is the challenge of the song for you (Self) today?
  • Are you waiting to be “ready” to be sent? If so, realise that you will never feel ready as God equips us “on the job”. What does this mean for you today? Are you afraid to have your heart break as God’s does?
