Today I'm dedicating this song to God. I was listening to it while I was reading for my Bible study today. I am so excited for the work he's doing in me. I'm reading Rob Bell's Velvet Elvis. He has been talking about how every good thing, every act of love, every truth is of God, wherever we find it, because if God is the truth and the light, no truth or light can exist without him. Everyday, even as I'm reading the Bible, I realize that God is soo much bigger than it. Yes, the Bible is authoritative, sacred, beautiful, truth containing....it may very well be the best word on the subject of God. But God is bigger than the ways we can talk about him. So so so much bigger. I wish I could sit for coffee with Jesus and Rob Bell and just chat, listen mostly, but just be there. They speak truth and beauty.
Have you ever stood next to a very large bell as it was ringing? You know how the sound kind of vibrates in you, even after it's stopped? That's what their truth does to me. It resonates still.
