"Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Teach these disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always,
even to the end of the age." - Matthew 28:19-20

Okay, here I go...

The song behind the blog.

I don't think a song has ever spoken to my heart as loudly or as clearly as "Follow You" by Leeland (featuring Brandon Heath) has. It's the inspiration behind this blog. Whenever I hear it, I feel this conviction in my heart to go and share the love of Christ with the entire world. I also feel encouraged, like I'm receiving a burst of courage and desire from above. Every time I catch this song on the radio an ear-to-ear grin comes across my face, my heart starts racing, and sometimes I will even get goosebumps. God is speaking to me through the lyrics of this song. I just know it. The video is also very moving. Take a look:







"You live among the least of these; the weary and the weak
And it would be a tragedy for me to turn away
On my knees You have supplied - when I was dead You gave me life
How could I not give it away so freely?

I'll follow You into the homes of the broken; follow You into the world
Meet the needs for the poor and the needy, God
I'll follow You into the world

Use my hands and use my feet to make Your kingdom come
To the corners of the earth until Your work is done
'Cause faith without works is dead, and on the cross Your blood was shed
So how could we not give it away so freely?

And I'll, I'll follow You into the homes of the broken; follow You into the world
Meet the needs for the poor and the needy, God
I'll follow You into the world

And I'll, I'll follow You into the homes of the broken; follow You into the world
Meet the needs for the poor and the needy, God
I'll follow You into the world

I give all myself, I give all myself
I give all myself to You
And I give all myself, yes I give all myself
And I give all myself to You and I'll...

I'll follow You into the homes of the broken, I'll follow You into the world
I'll meet the needs for the poor and the needs, God
I'll follow You into the world

I'll follow You into the homes of the broken, I'll follow you into the world
I'll meet the needs for the poor and the needy, God."
