Iveth Luna: Seeking First My Kingdom. Not God’s

It's important to be honest with yourself.

Psalm 40:2 (NIV) 2: He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.

So often in life we must be broken before the Lord puts us back together and reveals in that brokenness his true plan for our lives. Iveth Luna is one of Contemporary Christian Music’s newcomers and she’s on a mission to point listeners to Jesus. In this episode she talks about her call into leading worship and singing for the Lord.

Her reference scripture is Psalm 40:2, which is a constant reminder that the rock in our life can’t be our dreams, our jobs, or anything else that’s tangible in this world. Our “rock” is actually the faith we have that Jesus is alive and the promises in the Bible are true. Therefore, when we fall into a pit of despair, we can have faith that the Lord is there to lift us up, put our feet back on solid ground, and as long as we’re pointing our hearts to heaven, he will guide our path.
