YOU ARE SOOOO MUCH MORE...DID YOU KNOW THAT??

Have you ever heard the song by Tenth Avenue North called "You Are More"? One thing that you will learn about me very quickly is that music is so very influential in my life. I am moved by music. I feel that it speaks to me in so many ways. Therefore, I will be sharing a lot of songs with you! =) Anyway, back to "You Are More"...read these lyrics!

There's a girl in the corner With tear stains on her eyes
From the places she's wandered And the shame she can't hide

She says, "How did I get here? I'm not who I once was.
And I'm crippled by the fear That I've fallen too far to love"

But don't you know who you are, What's been done for you?
Yeah don't you know who you are?

You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.
Well she tries to believe it That she's been given new life
But she can't shake the feeling That it's not true tonight

She knows all the answers And she's rehearsed all the lines
And so she'll try to do better But then she's too weak to try

But don't you know who you are?
You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.

'Cause this is not about what you've done, But what's been done for you.
This is not about where you've been, But where your brokenness brings you to

This is not about what you feel, But what He felt to forgive you,
And what He felt to make you loved.

You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.

Wow...these lyrics shake me at my core. I can't tell you how encouraged I was by this song. It made me realize that God doesn't see anything but ME...He doesn't see my sin(s). How beautiful is that? If you are reading this, and you aren't sure what I am talking about...if you have any questions about God's love and how He loves you and sees you as a beautiful person, please talk to me about it! Message me, email me...call me! I would love to chat with you. If you are someone who does know about God's love but you feel that He doesn't see you as the beauty you are, please message me, email me,or call me. I would love to talk with you...pray with you and just encourage you!
