Don’t you love it when you’ve heard a song a million times and then, on pass one million and one–BOOM!  God tunes your ears in?  (And doesn’t BOOM! work perfectly for TobyMac?)  It’s no secret that my daughter got her TobyMac fandelirium from her mama, so we all know I’ve heard “Momentum” more than once.  Shucks, I can still remember the first time I heard it.

So, what did God hit me with this time?  What if we all lived our lives like the lyrics of “Momentum”?  Out loud.  Unapologetic.  “Ardently enthused about God.”  Totally sold out and 100% on fire.  What if only a handful of us lived that way?  Do we even realize what God could do with people like that?

I was actually convicted, driving down the road and jamming to that beat.  I’m not as sold out as I should be.  I’m for sure not as out loud as I want to be.  And what’s holding me back?  Absolutely nothing.  Seriously.  I gave it some real thought, and there is no good reason.  After all, the last thing I want to hear from Jesus at the end is, “I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth” (Rev. 3:15-16).  That’s the scariest thing I can think of.  It literally makes my muscles tighten to imagine it.

I’ve got a new prayer.  I want to be on fire for God.  I want to roll with His momentum.  I want to be everything He called me to be.

How ’bout you?
