"Ruin My Life..."

"Ruin My Life" - Zara Larsson **

It's interesting what you hear when you first listen to a song, when you don't know what it's called, and you just find yourself singing along to the radio in the car...

That's what happened with this one, and it was one of those "accidental worship" moments, when all of a sudden I'm belting out:

"I want you to rule my life, you to rule my life, you to rule my life, yeah..."

And now that I know they're not the right words, I still can't help but here them...

**  Another "Potty-mouth" warning here... Along with the "Scantily-Clad-Lady" warning

"Next to Me"

"Next to Me" - Imagine Dragons

Having bought a phone without a headphone input, and not being good enough at charging bluetooth headphones, I've not listened to a hug amount of music of late.

This week I bought a new gadget, in order to try and remedy the situation, and I'm catching up with those random tracks I've "Shazamed" when they've made it on to Radio 2, or when I've been sat in a coffee shop and they've come on.

I've always appreciated the sounds that "Imagine Dragons" put together, but never remember that I like them for very long. I'm listening back over some of their newer and older stuff, and the lyrics are jumping out at me too...

An Act of Kindness - Bastille

This wasn't on my radar at all until last year when I was looking for a piece of music to go behind an Easter chalk drawing... A petition to the Hive-Mind of Facebook brought this song to my attention.
(It was the perfect piece, as long as I removed the bridge about feeling guilty...)

​Here's the video I edited together:

Crazy Fool - Jack Savoretti

If youve read my post "Black Dog" this week, then you might have just smiled a little. That's ok. I forgive you.

This song was playing in Wilko (other shops are available) when I called in on my snowy walk and I Shazamed it so I would remember.

This is part of the "Rediscovering God" step.

​Listen and read the lyrics below. Let yourself ask the questions Jack asks of God... Maybe, if you're brave enough, you could spend some time in silence listening for a reply...

"Blinded by Your Grace"

Stormzy - Blinded by Your Grace, pt 2
I'm blinded by your grace
I'm blinded by your grace,
By your grace

I'm blinded by your grace
I'm blinded by your...

Chorus

One time for the Lord
And one time for the cause
And one round of applause, one time
for Fraser T Smith on the chords
I feel we got one,
I stay prayed up then I get the job done

Yeah, I'm Abigail's yout,
But I'm God's son
But I'm up now, look at what God's done
Now I real talk, look at what God did
On the main stage runnin' 'round topless
I phone Flipz then
I tell him that he got this
This is God's plan,
they can never stop this
Like... wait right there,
Could you stop my verse?

You saved this kid
And I'm not your first

It's not by blood and it's not by birth
But oh my God, what a God I serve

Chorus

I said a prayer this morning
I prayed I would find a way
To another day, I was so afraid
'Til you came and saved,
You came and saved me

And the rain was pouring,
'cause the sun faded away

Now I'm in a better place,
No longer afraid

Blinded by your grace,
You came and saved me, yeah
Chorus:
Lord, I've been broken
Although I'm not worthy
You fixed me,
I'm blinded by your grace

You came and saved me
Lord, I've been broken
Although I'm not worthy
You fixed me,
Now I'm blinded by your grace

You came and saved me

I don't actually want to say anything about this song... Except to say that there's definitely something that happens when you realise the power of God's grace;

Power to save;

Power to overcome fear;

Power to fix;

Power to tell other people about it.

I wonder if I could be so excited and convincing about telling other people about what God's grace means to me?

I wonder if Stormzy's enthusiasm to sing of it makes it sound appealing to other people too?

"Oh my God, What a God I serve!"

Is that something you could get on board with if it's true?

Worth a try, perhaps?
