Today is a rainy day here in Georgia. I know most people don't like rainy days, but I love them. I am a natural homebody, so days like this I have a good excuse to be one.
Today's song is one that just struck me the first time I heard it. It is often said we are our own worst critic, and this is certainly true for me. I often struggle with fear. I always have. It is definitely one of the ways that Satan gets to me. I fight against it all the time. Fear of the unknown, fear of not belonging, fear of how I look, fear of not being enough for people, fear, fear, fear... It is ridiculous. Lots of these things make me sound like I'm 3 years old again. This song speaks to some of this. When I'm not sure of who I am in God, how someone like me could be loved and accepted by the creator of the universe, God reminds me. He is so good that way. In every way. But I forget. So once again He reminds me. Again and Again.
I can't even find a favorite line in this song because there are so many good ones.
"In the mirror all I see, is who I don't wanna be" Yep, check.
"In the loneliest places, where I can't remember what grace is" Yep, check.
"When I can't receive your love, Afraid I'll never be enough" Yep, check.
So much of this speaks to me.
And then he says, "I'm the one You love"
Yes, that's who I am. And that's enough. I need to rest in this.

Maybe so do you?
