I have been stuck inside my house this whole weekend with nothing to do but lay in bed and try to sleep so I can stop feeling so yucky. I just had to get the flu the same weekend we have an icestorm! And (i am guessing because of the weather) my internet isn't working so I couldn't even get on and "surf." (i'm at work right now) Anyway, Saturday night at about 2 in the morning ( i couldn't sleep because I kept coughing painfully) I was listening to some christian music. It wasn't like the music we listen to in church but I still felt like I was praising God. I found myself lifting up my hands, closing my eyes, and looking up wanting Him to hear my words, my voice, my heart. It was so good! So, anyway, I kind of wanted to make a list of my fave christian songs I love to sing to Jesus! Here it goes:
- Made to Love - Toby Mac
- The Way - Telecast
- Love Song - Third Day
- Better is One Day - Kutless
- Shine - Salvador
- Never Let Go - Matt Redman
- Sanctuary - Jaci Velasquez
- Right Here - KJ-52
- Amazing Grace - Tori Amos
- Heavenly Hills - Apologetix
- My King - Nobody Famous
- Enough - Barlow Girl
- Cannot Hide My Love - Hillsong
- Lay It Down - Jaci Velasquez
- When the Rain Comes - Third Day
Those aren't all of them but those are the top ones I feel move my spirit. Right now, superfavorite is Made to Love by Toby Mac. His new CD isn't out yet I just heard it for the first time the other day and it rang so true to my heart.
The Chorus goes, "I was made to love You, I was made to find You, I was made just for You, made to adore You. I was made to love and be loved by You.
You were here before me, you were waiting on me. And you said you'd keep me, never would you leave me!"
So good.

Thankfully, every time I hear that song, I'm in my car by myself. I crank it! It's so good. If the kids were with me, I'd have it at a respectable level. That's one of my favorites, too!
Pam, I don't know what this "respectable level" means. Me and my kids RAWK OUT to it everytime I hear it! It's just us loving the LORD, X-treme style! YEAH BABY!!
In my single days, I, too, would "RAWK OUT," but Elliott is my mild-mannered alter ego and he likes it a little more "respectable!"
You can check out the pics now!
That is the song! It made me wanna be a better woman, poet, lover of God. I have been stirred to write a love song to Him. But, apparrently have not been brought to simmer. Excuse the cooking analogies- comes with the territory of having a chef husbad.
I was singing that song loud this morning on the way to work. Rock on.
I guess I need to listen to Christian Radio more... There is some Toby Mac cd on sale for 5 bucks at Family Christian, but its probably not that one...
