So....sometimes I really wonder if it's possible for other people to completely understand the depth and frequency of which God speaks to me through music. I know I've talked about it many times on this blog but I don't know if it's possible to convey how rich it is coming from Him or how much joy and truth it brings me.
Anyway, I heard this song and it resonated with me instantly in my spirit and soul which is no surprise seeing as it's Mumford and Sons and I swear to Bob (yes, I swear to Bob) they SO know my life the past year...it's almost scary. This song is a conversation between me and God... some of it now and some some of it in the recent past when I was in one of the most painful parts of this battle...this "process" if you will. Me falling on my knees and crying out in sadness and desperation and Him telling me Love is going to conquer all. And what's so amazing to me about God giving me this song is this line...
"Get over your hill and see what you'll find there with grace in your heart and flowers in your hair."
Cause see, that line just reaffirms to me how well my Jesus knows me. He knows that the thought of me with grace in my heart and flowers in my hair just makes my semi-hippie-self jump for joy! It's such a beautiful picture of me...in His freedom. I'm not completely over that hill yet, the level of freedom that He is lovingly taking me to in this time in my life is not complete. But, the picture that I can see of me by the calm stream with fullness of grace in my heart and flowers in my hair is just beyond these few more thorn bushes. And so I take Him by the hand and we stand tall and we walk because I know that the pain, is going to be so worth the end prize. He knows how to get to me. =)
Just so you know flowers in your hair CAN be replaced with feathers in your hair. ;)
