The Greatest Joy

I've been listening to Jared Anderson's song, Glorified alot in the last few days. By alot, I mean I have it playing on repeat whenever my Ipod is on. The lyrics are great. Here is one of my favorite lines:

The greatest joy I found is to lay a crown before my King.

For me, when I am focused on God, there is an unexplainable joy that I have. It's kinda like knowing all is well, all is right...even when it really isn't...if that makes any sense.

How do we lay a crown before our King? Well, I don't know exactly what it means. But I do have an interpretation. To me, to lay a crown before my King is really to take all that you are, the good and the bad, dreams and fears, praises and complaints, and put it before God, letting Him know that it is Him in who you put your trust. No other king, no other god...just Him.

In my life, the greatest joy I have found is to lay a crown before my King.
