Isn't it funny how certain songs become the theme songs for certain periods in your life? Okay, so I guess it's possible that this sort of thing only happens with me; but I doubt it. It's like when I hear a song by Mae *a great band my sister-in-law introduced me to* I automatically feel like I'm in the summer of 2007. And it makes me think of all the excitement of friends, family, and new additions to the family. It brings a smile to my face, and makes me crave summer's heat :)
Then there's the Comatose CD. More specifically the song Say Goodbye. Which brings me way back to June or so of 2006. (okay, so way back is a relative term) It makes me think of friends that now live far away, and all the struggles I brought upon myself in the next few months.
It's such a strange/cool thing for me to think about how by just listening to a song I can be almost transported to another time in my life. If you didn't know this about me, I struggle a lot with change. A lot. haha. But maybe God's given me a love for music to help me with that. I mean, I guess that can kind of be a stretch. But I always try to listen to music that honors Him. And I know that He can really speak to me, and comfort me though music. So when He made me, He knew that I would love music and that He would use that in a huge way in my life..
It's so comforting to know that God is always with me, and knows what's going on in my life. And in those times when He happens to provide me with a song, it's just that much better!
