Love Come To Life

The past few days I have had this song come up in various times throughout my day, and I have really been moved to think deeply about it.  It’s a new song by Big Daddy Weave called “Love Come To Life”.  Here are the lyrics:

I’ve been restless on the inside
wondering about this heart of mine
I’ve been desperately trying to find
a way to prove that I’m still alive
Has the love I speak so loudly of
quietly grown cold
Has my life been an empty voice
what I sing needs to be seen
I need to step out and make the choice
to let go of everything
Would you reignite this heart spark here in the dark
Bring your love to life inside of me
Why don’t you break my heart ’til it moves my hands and feet
For the hopeless and the broken
for the ones that don’t know that you love them
Bring your love to life inside of me
The generation you’re calling out
living everything we sing about
The revelation right here and now
love beyond the shadow of the doubt
Love that is greater than our own
won’t remain unknown
When you bring your love to life inside of me
Why don’t you break my heart ’til it moves my hands and feet
For the hopeless and the broken
for the ones that don’t know that you love them
Bring your love to life inside of me
love come to life
love come to life
bring love to life inside of me

I have been thinking about the opportunities that we have every day for love to come to life in our lives.  What would happen if we showed Christ completely in our actions?  Without even saying a word about Him, what if we helped those we work with every day or those we live with experience what it is like to be in the presence of a loving God?  Think about it:  in the world we live in, what is most lacking in people’s lives?  True love.  How many people do you know that do not know Christ?  Instead of preaching their ears off, what if you prayed that God would make His love come to life inside of you in such a way that those same friends experience heaven when they are around you?  Your life is only made up of todays.  So take today, and let His love come to life inside of you!
