I LOVE music. What an interesting question. I looked to see what other people posted. The typical answers you would think were there: Amazing Grace, I Can Only Imagine, It Is Well With My Soul. All of those are great songs. And this is a very personal question with no right or wrong answer of course.
So for me I don't think I can pick just one song. I think immediately of three songs. I know, breaking the rules even when I'm dying. Lol.
First--I think of Somethin In the Water by Carrie Underwood. That's me. I don't know how it happened. I was blind and now I see. Things growing up for me were crazy. I think I was in survival mode most of my life. And then Jesus came in and I started living. Must have been something in the water.
Second--How He Loves by David Crowder is next. It is really important to me that people KNOW that Jesus loves them. Plain and simple. Raw and beautiful. Broken and bleeding. In their sin. He loves them. Like a mother loves her child that she begs God to save on her knees is how Jesus loves us. That whole ugly cry with snot and red puffy face thing. Yet while we are sinners doing everything we know is killing us. He loves us. Yeah. I have to add that one.
And last, third, Thank You by the Katinas. Oh man. How do I thank Him for all of this? For my kids, for a husband who is ever patient with this hot headed wife, for parents that tried and loved me thru some crazy times. For all of my family that I have laughed with. And my best friends who will hold my secrets even when I'm not with them anymore. Because I have truly known love. And though I haven't had the easiest life, I have had the best life for that, Let my last words be Thank You Jesus!!!
Thanks for the candid reminder of how much Jesus loves us ( me ), even as unlovable as I feel at times. ♡
