The Blessing of klove!

While I know that I am WAY behind on blogs I can say that I did VERY well on my midterms! Priorities! So I need to catch up on a ton of stuff but it is late, I'm sleepy and I have yet to workout today so here is the thing that is the most pressing.

I have been so blessed the last couple days by the music on klove! I almost always have my radio tuned there but in the past few months I have been getting stuck on cd after cd and I have not spent to much time listening to the radio. Well, I have a new found love (for the 80th time) for klove and the music. There are two songs in particular that have been really speaking to me and I wanted to share them!


Matthew West - The Motions
From the album Something To Say
This might hurt
It’s not safe
But I know that I’ve gotta make a change
I don’t care If I break
At least I’ll be feeling something
‘Cause just ok
Is not enough
Help me fight through the nothingness of life
Chorus
I don’t wanna go through the motions
I don’t wanna go one more day
Without Your all consuming passion inside of me
I don’t wanna spend my whole life asking
What if I had given everything?
Instead of going through the motions
No regrets
Not this time
I’m gonna let my heart defeat my mind
Let Your love
Make me whole
I think I’m finally feeling something
Take me all the way
Take me all the way
Take me all the way

This song has just simply blessed my soul! The chorus just hits me and it has become my prayer to God lately. If I am spending time seeking the desires of my heart from God I need to also be spending time making sure I am passionate about Him and what His desires are for me.



FFH - One of These Days
From the album I Want To Be Like You
One of these days I'm gonna fly
Over the mountain
One of these days I'm gonna ride
On the silver lining
One of these days I'm gonna witness
All I've been missing
One of these days
One of these days
I'm gonna do
All the things that I've never done
I'm gonna finish all the races
That I've run but I've never won
And I'm gonna see a million faces
And recognize everyone
One of these days
Chorus:
One of these days
Gonna see the hand that took the nails from me
One of these days
Gonna hold the key to the mansion built for me
One of these days
Gonna walk the streets of gold that were paved for me
One of these days
I'm gonna see my Savior face to face
One of these days
One of these days I'm gonna say
Just what became of me
On the day that I believed
When you took myself from me
And I believe I will say
What I would have been
If You didn't save me
One of these days
And one of these days I'm gonna talk
With all the saints that have gone before
And in their sandals I will walk
And we will sit upon the shore
And I will learn all the things
That I never knew before
All this and more
One of these days
I'll finally be
In a place where there's no more need
No more pain and no more grief
No more foolish disbelief
And all the joy there will be
When at last we finally see
One of these days

This song is just an amazing reminder of the blessing I have in God! I love the line "One of these days Gonna see the hand that took the nails from me" it makes me tear up every time. It is a powerful and awesome thing to be loved as much as I am loved by God and this song reminds me that the trials and struggles here on earth will be worth the reward that I will have "One of these days"!
