Have I ever told you how much I enjoy listening to music? Since Circle City had a major snow storm last night… I ended up staying in for the day. Today besides cleaning my apartment, setting up my new computer and searching for a new job; I also looked for new tunes to fill my head with. I figure since I got the new computer why not fill it with new sounds? One particular song I came across was by Joy Williams called Charmed Life. I highly recommend you look it up on ilike.com or you can find it on itunes. It just came out this year so there is no videos of it on youtube that I could post. This song just happened to fit my personality to a tea. From the melody to the lyrics, I found myself lost in moment.
Listening to it reminded me of how charmed my life really is. I just have to open up my eyes to see the potential in the path God already has laid out before me. My favorite part of the song is this phrase, “It is plain to see what we got is color in a world of black and white.” I love the spin that thought alone puts on life, isn’t it so true? So many people are lost in a world of black and white, day in and day out. Have you ever tried living in color? We really do live in a beautiful world and honestly no matter how small or big your problems are, they will never be to big for Him. Just take comfort in the fact that He is right beside you shinning His light every step of the way.
“…There is a well lit sky hanging over everyone that is walking by. It is plain to see what we got is color in a world of black and white. Don’t even let it fool you, we got everything we need. Don’t let it even throw you, I know it is hard to believe. We are living in a charmed life…” -Joy Williams
