This song.
Sometimes I come to it when I'm feeling empty. Or lost or alone.
And I was sitting on my bed last night, feeling so
weighed down.
Despairing.
Then I sat and listened.
Giving my heart to the rise and fall of the music and those beautiful words.
And I sobbed and cried until snot ran down,
this broken mess,
getting a glimpse of the
weight
He
feels for me.
And I'm set free by his love that sees me through and through.
Set free from every darkness within and around me.
Even if I can't feel that love. Even if I've forgotten its existence. Even if I've lost sight of it and stopped feeding myself with it. Even if I'm lost in self absorption.
It's real and thick in the blessings - and trials - around me.
This weight of love, this God who is so in love with me. . . He's all I need.
