How it gets there, I do not know.
If a song is with me off and on for a day or so, I don't usually think about how or why it is with me. However, if it resonates in my mind for a lengthy period of time, or if it won't leave my mind, then I begin to pray about whether or not God is speaking to me.
For more than a week now, I've had a song with me, day and night.
It's by The Bee Gees entitled, How Deep Is Your Love: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zWP1V9Eo0c. Below, are the lyrics.
How Deep Is Your Love
I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love
Then softly leave
And it's me you need to show
Chorus:
How deep is your love
I really need to learn
Cause were living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You're the light in my deepest darkest hour
You're my saviour when I fall
And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside
That I really do
And it's me you need to show
Chorus
And it's me you need to show
Chorus:
How deep is your love
I really need to learn
Cause were living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You're the light in my deepest darkest hour
You're my saviour when I fall
And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside
That I really do
And it's me you need to show
Chorus
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love
Then softly leave
And it's me you need to show
And it's me you need to show
Chorus
How deep is your love
How deep is your love
I really need to learn
Cause were living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I really need to learn
Cause were living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
How deep is your love
How deep is your love
I really need to learn
Cause were living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I really need to learn
Cause were living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
When I think of these lyrics, I think about how I love my Lord. And, how He loves me.
He knows everything about me, because I belong to Him. He says so, in many verses of His Word, the Bible.
Just as He told us in Psalm 33:13, "The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men."
As His child, I know He looks down at me. Just as He does each and every one of His children. Meaning, those who are saved; those who belong to Him, because they are trusting in/believing upon our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Due to this song residing with me for so long now, I believe He looked down upon me, and decided to remind me about His love for me. And, remind me that I need to have deep love for Him.
You see, with being ill for close to 19 months, and still awaiting surgery, a few weeks ago I began asking Him why He hasn't yet restored my life.
I know He loves me. Just as I know God loved David, Job, Joseph, and others.
None of those people were perfect people. Just as I am not, either.
God restored their lives. Yet, to date, He has not yet restored mine.
Believe me when I say I've been praying. Deeply.
Praying for healing. For restoration of my life, in general. And, praying that God will not leave me hanging here, suffering... for much longer.
I believe He is answering my prayer. And, I praise God for this!
Until next time...
