We were at some friends' house last night having dinner and they had the best station set on their iPod. I went home and immediately stored it on mine. Whenever I'm on my elliptical machine I have to listen to music. God spoke to me this morning as these songs played through my headphones. I love when God sings to me through non-Christian songs. Go ahead... I invite you to listen to these four songs in a new way... and feel God's love for you.

Just The Way You Are by Bruno Mars
"She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come." ~Proverbs 31:25
"Let the king be enthralled by your eauty; honor him, for he is your lord.~Psalm 45:11"
"You are beautiful, my darling, beautiful beyond words. Your eyes are like doves behind your veil. Your hair falls in waves..." ~Song of Songs 4:1
"All beautiful you are, my darling; there is no flaw in you." ~Song of Songs 4:7
Lord, Thank You for thinking I'm beautiful when I don't feel it. Help me to believe You.
Say Something by A Great Big World
"Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD; O Lord, hear my voice.
Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy.
If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand?
But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared.
I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope.
My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning." ~Psalm 130:1-6
"It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” ~Deuteronomy 31:8
"Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the LORD holds them by the hand." ~Psalm 37:24
Forgive me, Lord for ever doubting You. I know that You never change and when I feel distant from You it is my doing. Thank You for giving me the choice to follow You. Teach me to love like You do. Thank You for always welcoming me back and for never giving up on me.
Grenade by Bruno Mars
"But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners." Romans 5:8
"But my people would not listen to me; Israel would not submit to me. So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts to follow their own devices." Psalm 81:11-12
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." ~Matthew 22:37
Forgive me Lord, for only going to You when I need You. Forgive me. I need You every single day, even when it looks like I'm trying to go it alone. Thank You for going through all the pain and for dying for me. I can't begin to comprehend that kind of love. I do not take it lightly. I don't deserve Your love.
A Thousand Years by Christina Perri
"When I am afraid, I put my trust in you." ~Psalm 56:3
"But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day." ~2 Peter 3:8
"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." ~Hebrews 11:6
"Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD." ~Psalm 27:14
I just love when God shows up unexpectedly.
We are so loved...
