Then Sings My Soul...

Then Sings My Soul Saturday, hosted by Amy, brings me to share two songs as I couldn't decide which one to choose.

The first is "The Motions" by Matthew West and the second is "Song of Hope" by the Robbie Saey Bond. I have heard these played on my local Christian radio station, Families 96.5FM, here in Brisbane.

The first song touched me as it made me question as to whether I am just going through the motions or not in my life, and I feel that I am. I want to do more, and be more, than I am and can be, and I want to start right here with my little girl. I feel that I could be a much better mother if I didn't have to work full-time, but I have to, so I will ask the Lord for guidance. I feel that every day, and every weekend, it's just the same old stuff, over and over again. I miss my family, I miss my sweetie, and this weekend I miss my girlie as she is staying with her father. I'm going through the mottions and not coping well with it.

The second song is just a great, uplifting song to listen to, and I'm playing it over and over here to lift my mood after the previous paragraph (sorry for the sobfest). "God of heaven come down..." just sounds amazing when it's sung in the chorus. We must always sing a song of hope and bring God down here to earth through our worship. I have been letting my job and it's busyness take my joy away this week and I don't want that to happen. Part of my purpose is to share, by example, my love for God, but I have failed this week. I love God, and am thankful that He loves me as He does. The lyrics include, "Just to know that you are near is enough", and "Just to know You and be loved is enough." Just amazing lyrics.

Please enjoy...
