Bring your love to life inside of me

Hello friends!  I have decided to keep up with blogging.  We'll see how it goes.  I know it won't be filled with anymore pictures of lions and orphanages, but hopefully you will still find it worth the read.  I was moved to share with you about a song I heard today on KLOVE.  For those of you who don't know, KLOVE is a contemporary Christian music station that can probably be found in the city where you live.  Anywho, the song is called "love come to life" and its by Big Daddy Weave.  This song may not be that new to you, but remember, I was in Kenya for 2 months, so its new to me :)  Below you can find some of the lyrics from the song:

I've been restless on the iside

wondering about this heart of mine

I've been desperately trying to find

A way to prove that I'm still alive

Has the love I speak so loudly of quietly grown cold

Has my life been an empty voice?

What I say needs to be seen

I need to step out and make the choice

To let go of everything

Would you reignite this heart spark here in the dark?

Bring you love to life inside of me

Why don't you break my heart til it moves my hands and feet

For the hopeless and the broken

For the ones that don't know that you love them

Bring your love to life inside of me

I love how this song challenges us to reignite our love and passion for God.  I love the part where it states "what I say needs to be seen."  I recall the scripture from 1 John 3:18 "Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth."  And I pray that my honest prayer can be for God to break my heart until it moves my hands and feet.  James 2:17 tells us, "In the same way, faith by itself, if it does not prove itself with actions, is dead."  It is easy for us to hear a song, see something on the news, or even experience first hand the needs of others and be emotionally moved.  But perhaps God is calling us to action...to be physically moved.  What if we all stopped saying, "thats for someone better qualified to do."  We serve a God with limitless power.  What if we allowed him to use his power through us.  God bless you and Merry Christmas!!
