Not many people know that I write songs occasionally and there is usually a tune rattling around in my head... It's just the way I was made... with a song in my heart and an extreme passion to just lay it all out and share with others...
Recently I have been making a little bit of headway and have been writing a bit more frequently... and I love it... often I ask myself if this was what I was supposed to do... then I go back to work on Monday and start the race again... wandering through life just trying to survive...
Does anyone else have dreams or desires like this? Why don't we pursue them fully?
One of the lines in my most recent song goes like this:
Be aware there are people
Living to survive
Hoping for their dreams to revive
Make room in your heart
I want to be a person that goes beyond survival... don't you?
I firmly believe there is a yearning deep inside everyone that wants to be more than they are... I have that feeling all the time... like life is wasting away and that I'm too old to do or start anything significant... but I know there must be something more...
The more I find is often found in God... more specifically God is the root of the "more"
Maybe "being more" is the same thing as "being more like Jesus" I'm not talking about being a deity... but rather believing fully in the promises that Christ came to bring redemption for everyone and everything... that includes your dreams... it includes you...
So today I'm gonna write a new song... not only because it makes me happy... but because it connects me to the "more of Christ" in my life...
Be more...
Blessings,
Sam
