Mission Statement for Rejoice in 2007

One of my favorite songs is “Will You Love Jesus More?” sung by Phillips, Craig and Dean. If there were one song that embodied what I’m trying to do in the Rejoice in 2007 project, this song would be it:  

I feel quite sure if I did my best I could maybe impress you
With tender words and a harmony, a clever rhyme or two.
But if all I’ve done in the time we’ve shared is turn your eyes on me,
Then I’ve failed in what I’ve been called to do.
There’s someone else I want you to see.

Will you love Jesus more
When we go our different ways?
When this moment is a memory
Will you remember His face?
Will you look back and realize, 
You sensed His love more than you did before?
I pray for nothing less than for you to love Jesus more.

I’d like to keep these memories in frames of gold and silver
And reminisce a year from now about the smiles we’ve shared
But above all else, I hope you will come to know the Father’s love.
When you see the Lord face to face, you’ll hear Him say “Well done.”

Will you love Jesus more, when we go our different ways?
When this moment is a memory,
Will you remember His face?
Will you look back and realize, you sensed His love
More than you did before?
I pray for nothing less than for you to love Jesus more.

Jesus said, "I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly" (John 10:10). I feel confident that as we seek to know and love the Savior more, He will lead us all to the abundant life that only He can give.

I look forward to working with you!

Blessings
