This is one of the songs I’ve been listening to hard this week. It fits perfectly with my focus for Lent.
As I try to do one thing at a time—even though I’m failing a lot—I’m reminded to focus on the One I’m doing it for. Jesus is the One I seek to know and follow hard after.
One Pure and Holy Passion
Sung by Candi Pearson
LYRICS
Give me one pure and holy passion
Give me one magnificent obsession
Give me one glorious ambition for my life
To know and follow hard after You
[Repeat]
To know and follow hard after You
To grow as Your disciple in Your truth
This world is empty, pale, and poor
Compared to knowing You, my Lord
Lead me on and I will run after You
Lead me on and I will run after You

Thanks for those who prayed for my sweet home Alabama again today as more tornadoes rolled through. I had no damage, but just a few miles from my house was much loss. My heart cries for those who lost homes that were barely rebuilt from the tornado damage last April.
