Though this post has been a long time coming, I can't not post this song. But to get how cool of an experience I have just had I need to give you the story. This afternoon I found myself quite discouraged and in need of something to lift me up and refocus me. Well I rang my sister and had a long conversation with my almost 2yr old nephew. I think we talked about trains and food, but the conversation was more based on noises in sentence form with a few squeals thrown it - the longest conversation I've had with him so I will cherish it! :) Well talking with the 2 of them really helped me by allowing me to get my emotions out and then by making me laugh and smile. Straight after I hung up I knew I needed to move on, get focused on the mission at hand. Music was the first thing that came to mind. iTunes shuffled away and landed on this song "Author of Life" by Phil Joel. Immediately I knew it was the song I needed to hear. It expressed where I am at and helped me fix my eyes on Jesus. It's moments like these that I breathe a sigh of relief and thankfulness to God cause I am reminded that He is active in my life, He reassures me.
Here's the song with some random pics I've taken over the past 6months for fun:)
Things aren't actually what I thought they would be
I won't pretend, disappointments never free
The sky's on fire, feels like the sky's on fire
I may be young but I'm feeling pretty old
Like somebody borrowed years
And I found out they got sold
But still I love you
Though my sky's on fire
Swallow my pride
Let go inside
Show me your way
Refine me
And I'll still love you
Though my sky's on fire
To the author of life
Be the author of my life
To the author do you hear me sing?
To the author of life
Be the author of my life
To the author do you hear me?
I see you've been hanging in there
Looking back I've been everywhere
I've done it my way for far too long now like
Like I promised you years before
All I have is yours
Swallow my pride
Let go inside
Show me your way
Refine me
