Rebel Heart by Central *grin*

I like blogging, so I'm going to pretend like we're sitting across from each other as I share my thoughts. I've had a gazillion things going on in my mind, some of which I will share and some I won't. I think that's being a responsible adult. Trust me, that whole "keep your thoughts captive and obedient to Christ" is something I do several times per day. *giggle*

I have felt like a towel in a washing machine being rung out end to end. That doesn't mean it has all been bad. I mean, the way the towel gets washed is by that repetitive motion. *grin* So, it's all been good, and He has shown me tons in the midst of the repetitive motion. I love how He does that!

I am always hungry for new music. ALWAYS. Part of what I love about my church is that I'm exposed to songs that I have never heard before. Two weeks ago I didn't go to church. I wasn't serving during the services, so I stayed in and watched online. I absolutely love that I can watch online!

On that Sunday, one of our lead worshipers, David Greer, led Rebel Heart by Central. I had heard him lead it before, but I didn't connect with it like I did that Sunday. God knew I would need that song in the days and weeks to come. I didn't know it, but He did. *grin*

The lyrics that have gripped me. The whole song is good but the words on repeat in my car:

You stole my heart
and released me with a cause

So I let go
And I let God
Be my Vision, my strength, and song

Not my will
but Yours be done

I surrender my rebel heart

For you know the future you have planned for me
It will be much greater than my hopes and dreams
With my hands held high
and to my knees I fall
Here on Earth and Heaven
I surrender all

Isn't that amazing? Look up Central Live on Youtube, you won't be disappointed!

I find it funny that the name of the song is REBEL HEART. I have recently been judged for one thing, when the opposite was true. God knows though, and I'm at peace in regard to the situation. He knows. Sometimes that's the lesson in it all. I don't think that's the only lesson He has for me in this season, but this song....gosh it has kept me grounded.

I'm so glad He made music. I would imagine that the circumstances around me would be eating me alive if I didn't have music in key chapters in my life. *grin* Instead, I know there's more to come.

God, please keep me grounded. You can see things I can't yet, but I want to be faithful to You in it all. IJN, Amen.

So, now I will log off and watch a "Wonder". It seems just right for tonight. *giggle*

*grin*
LIFE.
IS.
AWESOME...with music in it... *grin*
