I'm assuming everyone has caught on to the fact that music speaks to me. I'm not a music junkie who has dreams of becoming a musician or anything like that, but I love music. I think that it is so powerful, and can reach so many people in so many ways. For the past few years I have picked a song that defines my year, and who I have become because of it. Past years have been songs like Bring The Rain by Mercy Me, Strongtower by Kutless .. you get the picture. I wasn't going to post about the song for this year but I am.
Without any further wait .. my song of the year is In The Waiting by Shannon Wexelburg.
Never heard it? I'm not surprised because I even found it by mistake!
I came across this song late on night on youtube.com because I was looking for youth band clips. The moment I started listening to the words I began to cry. This song defines how I feel in so many personal ways that if you know me well enough you will know. God is in the waiting because He is apart of every season in our lives. As a child in Sunday school I remember Ms. Nina saying that when we pray God either says "Yes.", "No." or "Wait." At times in life it is hard to remember that we are on God's time schedules, not our own .. and sometimes that means waiting. However, from what I hear all the good things in life are worth waiting on :).
Here is some linkage -- listen AND read.
