in him we live, and move, and have our being
in him we live, and move, and have our being
make a joyful noise
sing unto the lord
tell him of of your love
dance before him
make a joyful noise
sing unto the lord
tell him of your love
hallelujah
in him we live and move and have our being
in him we live and move and have our being*
I sang this song in high school. A standard for a pentecostal denomination. This song is taken form Acts 17:28. Paul is talking about the resurrection and our inheritance in Christ. It is a beautiful redeeming verse. When I read it in it’s context it is full of passion and freedom. But once I close my bible, I often become like the person James warns about who forgets what he looks like as soon as he steps away from the mirror. Why is it so difficult to live in these truths? Why do we willingly put on bindings and tangle out hands and feet to keep ourselves form living in this freedom.
There is restoration, redemption and freedom for all who chose to live and move and have their being in Christ.
