Tornado

This song applies to so many aspects of my life and if we are called to be transparent then this describes exactly what has been going on inside me. He is faithful. I am learning the real meaning of forgiveness in a totally new way. I'm beginning to see that it's not always instantaneous, just like repentance, sometimes it can be a continual process. It just takes trust and total surrender to Him, and of course complete obedience.

You live your life like a tornado.
Destruction follows everywhere you go.
And you have no plans to stop or slow (oh).
I will not let this bitter root grow in me.
I will not let you leave that legacy,
But it gets so hard when pain is all I see (oh).

And every time I find healing, you're making a new mess,
And I am learning the real meaning of forgiveness.

And I tried to remove myself from your path,
But I keep on waking up in the aftermath.
So I pick up again and say I won't look back (oh).
And I will not let this bitter root grow in me.
I will not let you leave that legacy,
But this constant fight is breaking me (oh).

And every time I find healing, you're making a new mess,
And I am learning the real meaning of forgiveness.

And it hurts when you hit at the hearts of the ones I love;
When everything you touch is rubble and dust.
And it gets so hard to know how to trust,
But I will not let that bitter root grow.
I will not let it, no no.
But it gets so hard (oh).

And every time I find healing you're making a new mess,
And I am learning the real meaning of forgiveness.
And I could move and never send you a forwarding address,
Or I could learn the real meaning of forgiveness.

The Fire (FULL) by Nate Pfeil

wow...may our ears be open and our hearts be soft to not just say, wow, that's a really good video, if only SoAndSo could watch it but may it cause us to do what Paul said and examine ourselves to see if we're in the faith. He's either Lord of all or He isn't Lord at all. This is the truth that the world needs to SEE lived out in our lives, not merely HEAR out our mouths...He's worthy of the reward of His suffering.
