Love Songs

 

What comes to your mind when I say the words:  Love Songs?  I bet several old songs immediately pop into your head.  Maybe they were songs from when you meet your first sweetheart or perhaps the top hit list when you were a teen or maybe a song at your wedding.

I want to share with you my Love Songs!  A little twist to their meaning.  I had asked my husband  to make me a play list of all my favorites on my ipod (Yes I am still old school)

When he asked me for a list, my mind dumped and I could only name a few.

When I plugged it in the first time I heard the most beautiful love songs ever.  What I mean is, I found out that my husband knows me!  He has been attentive all these years. He put on my playlist all my favorites from as far back as 20 years to the present without me telling him!

He has no idea how this touched me. Better than any roses, candy or gift.  To know that I am loved deeply and that he knows my heart of worship. 

This was the best Love Songs ever!

Challenge:  Do a playlist for your spouse and see how well you know them!

 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her

Blind Sight

 

Has God ever stopped you dead in your tracks?  He did just that one morning at the gym.  I had just come out into the hall when I saw a lady walking towards me.  Her eyes focused ahead.

I had seen her before.  She came faithfully each morning to clumsily walk.  She has always been peculiar to me but i didn’t know her handicap.  But on this day, she was to teach me a lesson in how to see Jesus in a whole new way.

I watched her turn touch the water fountain.  Then she ran her fingers over every letter of the WOMEN ‘s bathroom sign.  Then she turned the knob.  As she fumbled around I lunged forward to help her with the light switch.  She closed the door just as i reached for it.

Then the light bulb clicked on! Not in the bathroom, but in my head! This woman did not need light to see, for she was blind. 

It was the Light that lived inside her that illuminated her way.  She depended on God to guide her.  Every day she lived with her blind eyes focused on The Light.

Just a reminded for those of us who can see…… what is your focus?  Has looking at the things of this world or the situations that surround you dimmed The Light that is to shine brightly so others may see God in You.

Don’t be blind to what God wants you to see!
