How Strange

One of my favorite songs (or makeup of songs, or mashups or n'importe quel name you give it) is Medley by Third Day. It's from one of their worship albums: Offerings II: All I Have to Give.  The song, as noted, is exactly that; a medley, of different songs all put together into a 7:35 praise song.  Now, i'm normally not huge on Christian music because, let's be honest, it's kinda drab.  But i've always digged this groove...many many years. Why? i'm so glad i asked.

All i want is love, and i confess to this, and i will take it, Lord, all you have to give...(merrhhh, i'll keep that in reserve. it's a whole other subject in it's own right)

here we go:

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,

Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.

gets me every time:

...the things of Earth will grow STRANGELY dim...(in the light of His glory and His grace)

("for where your treasure is, there your heart will also be" - Mt. 6:21)


just a little reflection for you

may your desire to love overtake your desire to be loved.  you are already loved, greater than any amount you could desire.
