This song is currently in HEAVY rotation. It's on my playlist and I find it very encouraging.
These are the lyrics
You look around, staring back at you
Another wave of doubt, will it pull you under? You wonder
What if I'm overtaken? What if I never make it?
What if no one's there? Will You hear my prayer?
When you take that first step into the unknown
You know that He won't let you go
So what are you waiting for? What do you have to lose?
Your insecurities, they try to hold to you
But you know you're made for more, so don't be afraid to move
Your faith is all it takes, and you can walk on the water, too
So get out, and let your fear fall to the ground
No time to waste, don't wait, and don't you turn around and miss out
Everything you were made for, I know you're not sure
So you play it safe, you try to run away
If you take that first step into the unknown
He won't let you go
So what are you waiting for? What do you have to lose?
Your insecurities, they try to hold to you
But you know you're made for more, so don't be afraid to move
Your faith is all it takes, and you can walk on the water, too
Step out, even when it's storming
Step out, even when you're broken
Step out, even when your heart is telling you
Telling you to give up
Step out, when your hope is stolen
Step out, you can't see where you're going
You don't have to be afraid
So what are you waiting, what are you waiting for?
So what are you waiting for? What do you have to lose?
Your insecurities try to hold to you
You know you're made for more, so don't be afraid to move
Your faith is all it takes, and you can walk on the water
Walk on the water, too

Love All Over Me
So I was riding in the car with my Aunt and on the radio, popular singer, Monica's song began to play. The song is called Love All Over Me and after listening closely I noticed that this song was a lot deeper than most would perceive it to be. She sings passionately about a love interest. Her words speak of a transformation in her as a result of this new found love. Listening intently I began to analyze. I thought "wow this is almost idolatry of some dude" and " seriously? he touched your heart and now it beats?..wait a minute." As I listened scripture was brought to my remembrance and I began to look at this song as one of worship to God. Its so interesting that a lot of these secular artists express the love that they long for. One that's deep, true and unconditional. One that can only come from the Father. Its as if we know who we need and long for but we place our affections on people and things of this world. If you only knew how much God loves us and how intimate he wants to be with each of us. Nothing compares.
Here are some lyrics (I inserted some scriptures references that correlate)
Before your love baby I was lonely
filled deep with pain til you took it from me
you showered me with a new beginning now I'm clean, (2 Corinthians 5:17, Ezekiel 36:36)
Took me by surprise when you ran up on me,
I came to life baby (Father lol) in that moment (Ephesians 2:4-5)
you put your hands on my heart and baby now it beats (Ezekiel 36:26)
Hook:
I got love all over me,
baby you touch every part of me
(Ooh) I got love all over me and I don't wanna get it off
I'm completely covered up in your love (Psalm 36:7)
God your are so awesome. Thank you for your amazing and unfailing love!!!

"Just Like Water" by Lauryn Hill
[Verse 1]
Moving down the streams of my lifetime
Pulls the fascination in my sleeve
Cooling off the fire of my longing
Boiling off my cold within his heat
Melting down the walls of inhibition
Evaporating all of my fears
Baptizing me into complete submission
Dissolving my condition with his tears
[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
[Verse 2]
Coursing through my senses, he's prevailing
Floating through the space of my design
Drowning me to find my inside sailing
Drinking in the mainstream of his mind
Filling up the cup of my emotions
Spilling over into all I do
If I only I could get lost in his ocean
Surviving on the thought of loving you
[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water, the water
I ain't felt this way in years
[Verse 3]
Bathing in the fountain of his essence
He causes my expression to remain
Humbled on a mountain by his presence
Washing my intentions with his name
Sealing off the floodgates of his passions
Saving all his liquid for his own
Moisturizing me to satisfaction
In my imagination? No no!
He's pouring out his soul to me for hours and hours
Drawing out my nature with his hands
Yearning I'm so thirsty for his power
Burning to be worthy of his land
[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
[Ad Libs Remainder]
Cleaning me
He's purging me
And moving me around
He's bathing me
And he's claiming me
And moving me around
Around and around and around
And around
Watching me, claiming me
Moving me around
He's purging me
He's been cleaning me
And moving me around
And around
So in Love with God. The lyrics are so deep
