Embarking on this journey
Taking the road less traveled
Not driven by selfish ambition
But surrendering all that I am to You
You know the depths of my heart
The motivation of my desires
I choose to walk in the light
Where all things hidden are exposed
Your love is all consuming
Transforming from the inside out
Making all things new
You bring us from death to life
Pouring forth your goodness
Your presence satisfies me
No longer settling for the counterfeit
But awaiting on the promise
Your faithfulness is like no other
Because you are who you say you are
You are the great I am
The same yesterday, today and tomorrow.

To advance in the world or to advance in the kingdom? The answer should be obvious right? But why do we, as people, settle for the counterfeit? The counterfeit looks good, looks appealing, it can work.. for a time, but what happens when we take that counterfeit to cash it at the bank? Will it pass? No. It won’t pass through the Maker.
It’s kind of like having chicken nuggets for dinner every night, chicken nuggets are good, it can do, but is it what’s best for you? Does it have the nutrients to better you as a person? No. (I know it’s not the most profound analogy, but it works. :) )
This also correlates with many relationships. People settle for the counterfeit instead of waiting on the promise, on God's perfect will. We can choose to be in denial but God knows. Why settle for anything less than genuine?
