My head knows about God. I know who Jesus is and some of the stuff in the bible. I know it in my head. Today my pastor talked about it moving from our heads to are hearts. As he would say, "I know people that can quote anything from scripture for you and tell you lots of history and knowledge of the bible. But some of those people, are the saddest, most critical, depressed, and angry people I know. Let me tell you, a sad long face is not spiritual. It is just, a sad long face. I don't know about your bible, but mine says the JOY of the Lord is my strength."
Our pastor must have been praying for us to get that today, and as I was listening to a song while making dinner, revelation of his love just poured out over me. Revelation, as in, "ohmygosh, my heart feels it and gets it." I could actually hear him tell me and I could feel his touch and the warmth of his spirit run through my body. As I listened close to every word of this song tears just ran down my face and as I stopped everything I was doing to be with him in that moment as my body could hardly move. I felt like I was being surrounded by his Glory. And my messy haired, jeans and hoodie self felt like God clothed me with his garments of pure royalty as his daughter, and I was just sitting there, praising him, being loved by my Savior. It was so real I could actually touch his love. I love my God. I just am so full.
This is the song.
It started a ton at 2min and 20seconds.
Where it talks about his unconditional love no matter where we are in life or what we are doing or have done. It blew me away.
thanks for sharing! I love those moments, there is just something about praise and worship music that gets me all the time!
