Where the Healing Begins

Healing Begins – Tenth Avenue North-    This song has been tackling me all day today! I am dealing with a friendship that is being pushed to the limits… mostly because of me… because I can never leave things as they are… I challenge those around me… to sacrifice… to love harder… to live harder… to be more committed… to die to themselves… Its not like I do not expect the same from myself and more… its just that the general consensus is that its not really my business…or my job… but if you read I CAN’T NOT Then you know… my friends don’t have the luxury of “status quo” living…It is a requirement of friendship that I hold the ones around me that claim the name of Jesus…  accountable for their actions… and I do this purely out of love for them… because I want what is best for them… I want God to be glorified in their lives…

So … about this song…  My wife was singing it this morning and said… “you need to look up this song online”  so I found it on youtube.com  and It just literally felt like the words had poured from my heart directly… I played it again and I was overwhelmed with the emotion of my present struggles…   I went to work… and going through my email… this song shows up as a free download  on Itickets.com I kinda shook my head… and listened to it again…  so I go on with my workday… for the past few months I have listened to pandora at work… today of all days, I decided to go to Air1.com and would you know the minute it comes on  ”Healing Begins”  starts pouring out of my speakers.   No doubt today I am hearing very clearly that God intends healing… how and when… and who that happens to is something that has yet to be seen… maybe it is you… or me… let me know… is it you?
