    This song has kinda rocked my world lately. I found out about The Afters from a friend I met at the ACFW conference.

    I’m hooked.

    They have a catchy way about their music. And the words for this song, well, click on the lyrics and you’ll see. They are great. Challenging too!

    My favs are:

    I feel alive

    And it hurts for a change

    And looking back and it’s hard to believe

    That I was cool

    With the days that I wasted complacent and tasteless and bored but

    That was yesterday

    ~~~

    Wow, can we say CHALLENGE?

    So much frustration in trying it alone

    I’ve had the revelation I can’t make it on my own

    All that Matters, by Addison Road

    [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQ6PfAP62Q0]

    I listen to some songs just because they’re fun. You know? Like, a great beat that keeps me pumping while I’m biking or runnin’. But some–well, some have those few words that truly inspire me. Or even remind me, of what’s important.

    This part of the chorus did that for me in this song:

    ‘Cuz all that matters is, all that matters is, I know your love has set me free, and that’s all that matters to me.

    You know what? I can face pretty much anything know that I have God’s love backin’ me up.

    How ’bout you? What gets you through the tough stuff?

    This could be the day, Addison Road

    Okay, I’m loving this group. Been listening to their stuff 24/7 (must to my sweet hubby’s dismay) for a couple months, now.

    Over, and over, and over….You can ask him 🙂

    Anyway, this song hit a chord with me this past weekend, though. It’s about being active in our faith. At least this is how I interpret it.

    They really hit me with the idea that this world, what we have today, is temporary…it’s just a minute compared to eternity.

    Clearly it’s time to make a change

    Or I could keep sitting and waste all day

    I know that it’s time for me to move

    I’ve been given this minute to use

    And given this moment to prove that

    Happy Monday, everyone. I picked from one of my favorite musicians for today’s song.

    Walk by Faith, Jeremy Camp.

    Powerful song, isn’t it?

    We are scheduled to bury my grandmother today, and during this difficult day for me, the song is comforting. Although I may not understand everything that happens in life, I will walk by faith.

    I hope you enjoy it. I hope you’ll come back tomorrow to meet my sweet Grams through some pictures and fun memories.

    ☺
