Just the other day my boyfriend posted a youtube video on my facebook wall
The song was Michael Buble - Everything
But thats not exactly what this post is about.
This post is based on a song, and that song is called everything, but its not by Mr Buble.
The song I'm talking about is this one here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSwCOs-uXzU
Lifehouse - everything.
I first heard this song 3 years ago at my first easter camp, and since then I have rediscovered it earlier this year. As I have found on youtube, it has been done quite a few times, but I like this version the best.
1) because I love the white suit and red and black shoes and 2) because of 5.05 (roughly around there) where the girl is at the feet of the Lord and He takes of his coat and puts it on her.
It reminded me of one of my first God encounters, at my first easter camp three years ago.
It was the Sunday night, and Sunday night at easter camp is known for its tear jerking capeabilities, but as much as I felt like crying, I couldn't. For so long I knew there was something wrong, but I could never put my fingure on it. I stood at the front of the stage, people in groups and pairs crying, hugging, praying together. It was at that moment that I began to feel alone. Surrounded by hundreds of friendly faces, yet I was alone. But not just there, but at school too, with my friends. It was also at that moment that I felt a hand rest upon my shoulder, I turned to see who was there and I saw no one, the closest people to me were two girls about 2 meters away from me. I began to cry. I was not alone, I had God by my side and that was never going to change. As I walked out of the meeting area, I noticed that my breath fogged in the cold night air, yet I didn't feel cold. I felt like someone had wrapped a warm blanket around me, I felt warm and safe.
"Find Me Here
Speak To Me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That's leading me
To the place where
I find peace again"
The second thing it reminded me of is this: about 3 months ago a friend of mine asked me during english "were you truely happy before you had a boyfriend? Or are you truely happy with one?"
My reply was this : "I was truely happy without a boyfriend, but being in a relationship with him just makes me that bit happier," her reply was a short pause and an "okay" before she went back to work.
In one of our d'n'ms (deep and meaningful conversations) me and my cousin talked about relationships. I brought up this question which was asked, and told him my response. His reply was similar to that of my friends, but with a slight difference. It started with a slight pause, but instead of an "okay" he said "that is the right answer."
I must admit it felt nice to be told I said the right thing, I haven't always been so great with words in the past. But even if he hadn't told me that, I still believe it is the right answer.
"How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?"
When I'm told "I love you more than anything" the honest reply is that the same can not be said for me.
My heart will always belong to the Lord. Because "You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?" "You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting. You are the light to my soul. You are my purpose...you're everything""Cause you're all I want, You're all I need. You're everything, everything"
