Have you ever listened to a song many times over but never really understood its full meaning, suddenly it hits you and you realize the deeper meaning of the lyrics? Well that happened to me tonight. I was listening to this song by Tenth Avenue North called By Your Side. I have listened to this song probably at least 100 times and never realized how much a certain line means. It goes "look at these hands at my side, they swallowed the grave on that night". They are talking about Jesus dying on the cross for you and I. His outstretched arms took away all the fears and troubles that the world could ever throw at us. As I stand and take in the amazement and beauty of His world, He is standing beside me embracing me in His arms pulling me tight because He loves me. He is doing the same for you. I pray that you may feel His warm embrace in your life.
That was a beautiful reflection Kayla.
