Let your walls fall

So I was trying to rest on my bed while I was listening to the same Pandora station, and this song came on.

See this post. This was back before Christ was my hope and strength, and I think you can clearly see that. :'( So this song that I heard while I was laying on my bed came on and it reminded me right away of that post.

Here are the lyrics.

So you thought you had to keep this up
All the work that you do
So we think that you're good
And you can't believe it's not enough
All the walls you built up
Are just glass on the outside

So let 'em fall down
There's freedom waiting in the sound
When you let your walls fall to the ground
We're here now

This is where the healing begins, oh
This is where the healing starts
When you come to where you're broken within
The light meets the dark
The light meets the dark

Afraid to let your secrets out
Everything that you hide
Can come crashing through the door now
But too scared to face all your fear
So you hide but you find
That the shame won't disappear

So let it fall down
There's freedom waiting in the sound
When you let your walls fall to the ground
We're here now
We're here now, oh

This is where the healing begins, oh
This is where the healing starts
When you come to where you're broken within
The light meets the dark
The light meets the dark

Sparks will fly as grace collides
With the dark inside of us
So please don't fight
This coming light
Let this blood come cover us
His blood can cover us

This is where the healing begins, oh
This is where the healing starts
When you come to where you're broken within
The light meets the dark
The light meets the dark

This was me. I built my walls, I hurt people, I pushed them away.
What absolute destruction I caused! You don't even know an 1/18 of it. I am forgiven.

God's grace. I was so clearly saved by the grace of God. He knew my hateful heart. He worked in me. He showed me His overwhelming love. I am such a sinner.

Reading that blogpost now amazes me and the words, "Once I was blind, but now I can see" are running through my head.

I'm feeling overwhelmed by His awesome power right now. It might hurt so badly when He works in me, but oh, how He teaches me.

I have no more words. God is enough. Always and forever, He knows the truth.

Willa shared this when I woke up this morning,
"Seek peace and pursue it."
