Happy Friday to you all. Yesterday we had a dusting of snow but today is clear with promises of sunshine and warmth. As I was driving yesterday one of my all time favorite contemporary songs came on the radio and I ended up singing it all day including last night as I drifted off to sleep. I'm sure those drivers around me wondered about the lady rocking out in her car and singing...I'm sure I make quite the site. You know I just love to sing and worship so often when I'm alone in the car you'll find me singing very loud(usually the windows are rolled up)because even though I sang in a coffee house in high school I'm not very good. Amazing what youth will do to a person and what maturity does. Today's song isn't a light fun song but one that is heart felt and with all that is going on in the world this sums up my desires most. I tried to find it on playlist so I could add it to my songs in case you haven't heard it but sadly they didn't have it; if you have a newer computer just google it and then listen to it.
No More Going Through The Motions by Matthew West
The Motions
This might hurt, it's not safe
But I know that I've gotta make a change
I don't care if I break,
At least I'll be feeling something
'Cause just okay is not enough
Help me fight through the nothingness of life
I don't wanna go through the motions
I don't wanna go one more day
without Your all consuming passion inside of me
I don't wanna spend my whole life asking,
"What if I had given everything,
instead of going through the motions?"
No regrets, not this time
I'm gonna let my heart defeat my mind
Let Your love make me whole
I think I'm finally feeling something
'Cause just okay is not enough
Help me fight through the nothingness of this life
'Cause I don't wanna go through the motions
I don't wanna go one more day
without Your all consuming passion inside of me
I don't wanna spend my whole life asking,
"What if I had given everything,
instead of going through the motions?"
take me all the way (take me all the way)
take me all the way ('cause I don't wanna go through the motions)
take me all the way (I know I'm finally feeling something real)
take me all the way
I don't wanna go through the motions
I don't wanna go one more day
without Your all consuming passion inside of me
I don't wanna spend my whole life asking,
"What if I had given everything,
instead of going through the motions?"
I don't wanna go through the motions
I don't wanna go one more day
without Your all consuming passion inside of me
I don't wanna spend my whole life asking,
"What if I had given everything,
instead of going through the motions?"
take me all the way (take me all the way)
take me all the way (I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go)
take me all the way (through the motions)
take me all the way
I don't wanna go through the motions.
Have a blessed weekend friends!
Hugs, Noreen
