Do I "live like that"?

Tonight I'm caught up in the piles of senior year homework...oh so much homework. Sometimes when I have been studying all day and haven't really thought about anything else God chooses to remind me why I'm putting all this effort into studying His Word. Why He has put me here, at Multnomah, at the age of 21, studying and diving into the greatest news in the world. And then I'm convicted. I take this opportunity for granted so often. I'm only a few months from saying "goodbye" to this part of my life and then I will be on to the next part of preparing for Germany and BFA, but for now I'm here.

I want to share this song tonight. It helps put me in my place when I get distracted from all the blessings and lessons that God is teaching me and it makes me ask "am I living as though I have the greatest gift in the world or the greatest secret?" Because if I'm living as if it is a secret then I'm missing the whole point! Live like you have the greatest gift anyone could ask for and then share it with everyone.

Live in light of the blessing you have received. We are blessed, chosen, and loved by the Creator so give all you have so that everything you say and do points to Him.
