The Great God Cycle

I just finished my "God Time" and was listening to my ipod as I began the endless laundry task. How Great Is Our God was playing. A line in that song reminded me of what I had just read in Isaiah. "Sing with me how great is our God, and all will see how great is our God." I had just read, "And why have I called you for this work? Why did I call you by name when you did not know me? It is for the sake of Jacob my servant, Israel my chosen one." (Isaiah 45:4) It occurs to me in this moment that's the point. He's calling us to a life lived for, by and through Him so that others He has chosen may see His greatness in us and proclaim the same through their lives as well.
