I don’t know about you, but I love songs that convict me.
I love that they make me think, sometimes in a way that I never would have thought of something before.
Love that they require some sort of response from me.
Love that, with God, nothing is impossible — and He can turn that conviction into a blessing that brings me closer to Him.
That’s the kind of song “Hanging On” by Britt Nicole (see below) is for me. It talks about how the Bible is essentially life for us and we should hang on every word of it — because it’s from God.
Have you ever stopped and really thought about that? The Bible is a letter from God to you.
Wow.
I know I definitely don’t have enough awe, reverence, or devotion to God’s Word.
But I want to.
And that is a start. God can use that desire and grow it into whatever He wants to.
Your Turn: What song has convicted you at some point?
Here’s Britt’s song:
Oops, sorry, apparently I was signed in as Hope Ministries above. Haha! But what I said was: I love how you introduce me to songs here. I really never listen to the radio (totally an iTunes playlist girl!) so I'm always behind on music. I'll have to listen to this one today…
Haha, I wondered! 😛
And happy to do it. I hear so many good songs on the radio…like our theme song! Yay!
I love your worship Wednesdays, Lindsay. With rehearsal each Wednesday night, it just helps get my focus in the right place. LOVE!
Aw, thank you, Donna. I always love seeing your smiling face here.
My daughter Chloe (3 yrs) LOVES Britt! And I love this song!! Great post, Lindsay. What a message to reflect on!
It is such a good message, right? And so often, I'm afraid my answer to the question "Do I stay in awe of God's word?" is no. Gotta work on that.
I hadn't heard of this song or artist before, so thanks for sharing!
What song convicts me? Does Anybody Hear Her, by Casting Crowns. Every single time. Thank you for sharing worship songs here, Lindsay!
