Favorite Song

I used to hurt.

I used to hide.

I could only see the walls that I kept myself behind

And it was hard, until I found

There's one who knows the way to bring them down.

He showed me how to look for more

To see the truth, I couldn't find before

And I learned to believe there's more 

That I can be

I can be stronger now

'Cause he showed me how

I took a step into the Light

I followed the voice that said

That I was strong enough to try

And as my heart could hear the sound

I knew I could climb above the doubt.

He showed me how to look for more

To see the truth, I couldn't find before

And I learned to believe there's more

That I can be

I can be stronger now

'Cause he showed me how

Yes He did, Oh

His love opened my eyes

And I know that He's been

There by my side.

He showed me how to look for more

To see the truth, I couldn't find before

And I learned to believe there's more

That I can be 

I can be stronger now

'Cause he showed me how

'Cause he showed me how

This song I have recently played on you tube and cannot quit listening to the message behind all of these lyrics. It has also reminded me that our Savior, Jesus Christ has already showed us how to live and serve those around us, as well as many other things in between. I know that my life is never going to be perfect or have all sunshine and happiness at times... but I have continued to persevere through it all by reflecting on him more everyday. I am grateful for the powerful way that my favorite singer & songwriter performs in this song more than anything else in this world, because of the truthfulness I know comes from striving to live the gospel on a regular basis. His testimony of what it means to be more like our Savior who unimaginably showed us how from this example about loving people and taking the time to minister to those around that we come in contact with. Aside from all the difficult experiences I will continue to have in my lifetime, I am grateful to know there is somebody whose already made it possible for us to be with our families forever and turning to him whenever we do need some comfort in any given moment. If you have not listened to this song yet-- I would highly recommend it to anyone that may need a little bit of peace in their lives and hopefully it will only inspire you with seeing the good in this world.
