2009 has been a time of major growth and change for me. The overall theme of 2009 was dependency on God for everything. To come to a place of really trusting Him, to believe that He loves me, to know that He has a plan for my life and that my life is an opportunity to tell the story of His grace and to glorify Him in all things. Each of these songs hold different memories of this past year and all I have to do is hear one of them to be taken back to those moments and feelings. Music has always been one of the primary ways God reminds me of His presence and His love. He allows lyrics to teach me, prepare me, soften me and humble me. Most days I wake up with a song in my head and frequently find that there is providence in hearing those particular words over and over throughout the day.
I am not who I was and I don’t want to to ever forget what God taught me throughout this past year. I am looking forward to new lessons, new memories, more growth, more dependency and a new soundtrack in 2010.
Happy New Year!
