Beautiful Christ
As we look around, there are so many people that battle self esteem issues. But once we accept Jesus Christ as our Savior, our self esteem and worth should now be found in Jesus! Unfortunately, becoming a Christian doesn't mean that we have let go of all the negative beliefs that we have about ourselves. Our hearts may believe that Jesus loves us and that we are precious to Him, but our minds are still battling all the old lies we have told ourselves.
The song Beautiful Christ is a reminder of who we are in Christ. As Christians, the Holy Spirit dwells within us and we are no longer the people we use to be. We are now new creations and it is through Jesus Christ that we can find our worth! The verses admit our insecurity but then point us back to Jesus. The chorus reminds us to "open our eyes to see" that through our faith, we can believe and reflect the beautiful Christ that lives within us. The bridge is a proclamation of 2 Corinthians 5:17, "If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has gone, the new has come." The mp3 is a live recording at one of our services where we talked about being overcomers in Christ.
If this song has blessed you and you would like to use it within your own church, please email me for permission. I would love to talk with you and hear more about your church!
