It is a close to 6 a.m. and I should be asleep but there is a song that has pierced my soul and whenever I happen to wake up in the middle of the night I go to my laptop that is sleeping plainly in the night and awake it so it can play that sweet melody of song to my heart. The song is Book of Love sung by Peter Gabriel (btw it is playing while I type this over and over again.)
TV has such a dreary look to it these days. It rarely adds to your life in a positive way or is a glimpse of what it once looked like in its early years till I saw this final episode of Scrubs. It sparked so much in me that if TV was always like this I would let it sit in my living room every night and play a part in our lives. Watch the video and I dare you not to let it in.
It has been a couple of days since I was blessed by it and I have played it over and over thanks to youtube.com and now the song moves me in a different way. A new level if you will. It makes me think of my husband and daughter. Friday morning before heading to work I was sitting in front of my laptop my husband to my left and my daughter walks in rubbing her eyes and sits on my lap just as I am about to play the video. I click the black play button on the screen and for the next 4 minutes in complete silence we watch the video and I am in awe that I am even more blessed because these few minutes are now wrapping itself around my family one morning and I can see it affect us. It was a wonderful moment that I will always cherish and is what life should be made of. My child after it stopped playing turned to me and whispered “Mommy I like that song.” Even at 3 she could tell it was nice and gentle to her soul. The Lord is so good to give us these rich moments. Thank you Jesus!
So I hope you all enjoyed it and the glimpse into love…May the Lord bless you with love in your life.
Feeling loved,
Me
