IF YOU WANT ME TO

I am sharing with you all a song that has meant a lot to me over the years, and even more so lately. Ginny Owens is an artist whom I love, and who has many songs that touch me down deep. I believe the lyrics of this song are relevant to any Christian, you just have to believe the truth that God knows what is best for us, just as our earthly fathers know better than we do as small children.

I have had a long time habit of listening to worship music in bed when I am trying to go to sleep. I remember back when I had a couple of cds that I kept in circulation(I would listen on a discman with big, old school headphones). A few nights ago I returned to this habit, which I had abandoned and the first album I clicked on on my ipod happened to be Without Condition by Ginny Owens. I had not listened to this album for probably at least 6 months, and when I came to this song, I realized it had a little more relevance to my life today than I had ever felt before. I had to share it with my husband immediately. You see, Dan and I have made it a point to share our lessons and experiences throughout this trial, and we feel that is strengthening our relationship with each other as well as our individual relationships with God. As odd as it may seem, I thank God that we are experiencing such a difficult trial at the beginning of our marriage. Because of these lessons we are learning, and the closer we are drawing to each other, I believe we will be able to turn to God and cling to each other anytime trouble comes our way.
