O how He loves me

Do you ever get a song stuck in your head? Of course you do. We all get songs stuck in our brains for hours upon end just hoping to get rid of them with a better song. How many commercial jingles have we all sung out loud in a grocery store line or in a public place with out realizing what we were even singing! I used to sing the Oscar Mayer Wiener song ALL OF THE TIME. I am sure it was annoying.

It's amazing how music can be so influential in our thought life and how it plays on our emotions. I remember in high school I had gone through a breakup and what was the first thing that I did? I listened to the saddest breakup song I could find to help heal my pain. Isn't that so funny? We go to an even sadder form of help to try to make us feel better. It just doesn't make any sense, because instead of helping me feel better, it actually made me feel worse. It seems we find music to fit every occasion in our lives. I just love seeing the people that listen to hardcore music as they work out hoping it will push them through the pain. All I can say is Jock Jams baby...it'll get you pumped up! This is so besides the point.

What I am getting to is; I have a song stuck in head. "He loves me...Oh how He loves me." I It is a wonderful song. It's a song talking about How much Jesus Loves me. And for some reason this is the only part of the song that I can remember! I find myself singing it out loud throughout the day. This isn't just a shower song, it's an all day getting dressed, driving the car, going shopping song. It's a God song.

I have been praying for God to do somethings in my life, personally and spiritually. When I start singing this song, I find myself thinking about how much the Lord really does love me! I am so thankful to be at a place in my life where my world revolves around Jesus. I would probably still be singing the Oscar Mayer Wiener song or possibly Jock Jams (thank you Jesus that I am not) if it weren't for surrounding my world with music that glorifies God. So now, instead of being influenced by sad, sappy songs I am influenced with how much God loves me. And I need that right now in my life. Don't we all!
