Your love's enough to see the broken hearts
Gain a brand new start with a brand new heart
And as the faithful hope in things unseen
You're enough to see all the things they dream come to life
'Cause we're living in the Savior today
And this day is what we have now
In this moment we have chosen to praise
And it's changing how we live now
Your love it broke my fall
It's more than enough and I need it
'Cause I've never known better
And I'll never know better
Your love's enough to see the humbled man
Find the cause of Christ with His outstretched hands
As the cripple grabs his mat to walk
You're enough to save him from the pain he bore
'Cause we're living in the Savior today
And this day is what we have now
In this moment we have chosen to praise
And it's changing how we live now
Your love it broke my fall
It's more than enough and I need it
'Cause I've never known better
And I'll never know better
This love will see me soar
It's more than enough and I need it
'Cause I've never known better
And I'll never know better
My Savior, You'll never let me go
My life is now secure
My Savior, You'll never let me go
And in Your hands my future's brighter
Your love it broke my fall
It's more than enough and I need it
'Cause I've never known better
And I'll never know better
This love will see me soar
It's more than enough and I need it
'Cause I've never known better
'Cause I'll never know better
'Cause I'll never know better
And I'll never know better
I was out running this morning, with the Hillsong United EP on the iPod. This song "Love Enough" came on and it was good to hear it again for the first time. Especially the chorus: Your love it broke my fall / It's more than enough and I need it / 'Cause I've never known better / And I'll never know better / This love will see me soar / It's more than enough and I need it / 'Cause I've never known better / And I'll never know better
I've been feeling grateful in recent days for God's love breaking my fall. I feel like life's been in a free fall for a while and now I've finally felt the courage to pull the ripcord of the parachute that I've known was there all along. All this while I've heard the voice in the back of my head, "Come on back around," but kept putting it off, not wanting to face it. It's true. God's love is more than enough and I need it. I can spend time focusing on other things, other people, other places, and know that nothing else will replace the God-shaped hole.
What I heard differently today in this song was the line: This love will see me soar. I can fall on that love and go from free-falling to soaring - letting that parachute glide through the air. Which is to say, either way, I'm up in the air (which reminds me of another blog I need to write). I can either let myself tumble around in no particular direction or I can fall back on God's love and soar. It's a question I have to ask, a choice I have to make: Do I want to be tumbling in no particular direction? Or do I want to be soaring in particular direction?
I'm tired of the free fall. I want the stability of soaring, so to speak. I want the stability of God's love to break this fall and hold me up as I soar. It's his love that will see me soar. I'm pretty sure I've been there before but some stuff knocked me down and I can feel myself getting things back in order and I'm ready for things to be straightened out, and that puts a smile on my face.
In this moment I've chosen to praise, and it's changing how I live now....
