Softness Found…Melody Within

So much has filled my thoughts today. Mulling out the emotions and the various obligations of processing was a task of length. I wanted nothing more than to set it all aside and refocus at a different time or different day, but as always it is a matter with time being of the essence. I will be grateful when this entire process is behind me and the demanding structure of time lines stops swarming my sense of being. Eventually my days will totally belong to me.

Music is a huge part of my daily routine. The different genres I listen to depend on my particular mood or emotion at that very moment. The beauty of having this entire world and vast harmonies to assist with my coping has been a keen tool used daily. I find peace from the acoustic tunes, assurance with inspirational songs, and an avenue to expression through heavier beats. Many of my feelings or realizations will come with validation of a set of lyrics. Some days I search for something new as I cannot quite put my finger on just what my heart is trying to express. Today was one of those days and I just drifted through ocean of the musical world. I stumbled across a song that hit the nail right on the head as far as what my internal emotions were trying to get me to understand.

God of this City
By: Chris Tomlin

[Verse 1]
You're the God of this City
You're the King of these people
You're the Lord of this nation
You are

[Verse 2]
You're the Light in this darkness
You're the Hope to the hopeless
You're the Peace to the restless
You are

There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God

[Chorus]
For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater thing have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City

[Verse 1]
You're the God of this City
You're the King of these people
You're the Lord of this nation
You are

[Verse 2]
You're the Light in this darkness
You're the Hope to the hopeless
You're the Peace to the restless
You are

There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God

[Chorus]
For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here

There is no one like our god
There is no one like our God

[Chorus]
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this City
Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here

The melody is smooth and the beat spoke of my growing courage. It spoke to me as my life being the City and I am the influencing power. As the verses describe the light, the hope, and the peace it was clear that I can break free of the darkness, hopelessness, and restlessness upon my own determination. Devotion to myself brought the capability of this enduring independence. As I connected with this song I fully embraced the chorus: For greater things have yet to come. And greater things are still to be done in this City. This song holds deep significance to my internal flame at this time. The future holds endless opportunities for my life and the best is yet to come.

My life the City…Internal love my God
