More Like Falling in Love

I want to highlight my current favorite song right now. It is "More like falling in love" by Jason Gray




As most people know, I am a Christian and this is a Christian song.

"Give me rules I will break them. Show me lines, I will cross them."- I can really relate to this because I am the type of person who, when you tell me what to do something, will do the complete opposite. I remember when I was a kid I would plan on coming home from school and cleaning my room, then the second I would walk in my parents would say "go clean your room" so I wouldn't do it. If someone tells me to do something I am naturally rebellious to this day and I don't want to do it, just because I was told to.

"I need more than a truth to believe. I need a truth that moves and lives and breathes, to sweep me off my feet." -This is how I have always felt. This is exactly why I didn't believe in God for most of my life. I could see the things of this world so it was easy to believe. I couldn't just take some one's word for something and believe it was true, and that certainly couldn't make me passionate for it.

"It's gotta be more like falling in love than something to believe in." -I don't want something to believe in, I want a relationship! I don't want answers, I want a savior.

"More like I'm losing my heart, than giving my allegiance." -I don't need someone else to answer to, and what good would it do me to pledge my allegiance to someone I don't even care about? I will never want to obey if that is all it means.

"Caught up, called out, come take a look at me now. It's like I'm falling in love."- Luckily for me that is not what God is about. I am caught up in His love, I am called out of of this world and you can come see the proof for yourself! I look like I am in love with Jesus because I am!

"Give me words, I'll misuse them. Obligations, I'll misplace them"- I am not perfect. As a matter of fact, I screw most things up. I am no valuable asset to the most high God. I am nothing special at all.

"Cause all religion ever made of me was just a sinner with a stone tied to my feet. It never set me free."- It isn't about religion. It isn't about doctrine or denominations. All that religion ever did for me was give me rules and make me feel bad about myself.

"It's gotta be more like falling in love, than something to believe in." - I need more than religion, I need to be in love

"More like I'm losing my heart, than giving my allegiance"-I don't want to promise myself, I want to give everything I have.

"Caught up, called out, come take a look at me now. It's like I'm falling in love."-You can see a difference in me.

"Deeper and deeper."- God's love for me is so deep, I continue to fall more in love with Him every day.

"It was love that made me a believer."- It wasn't a sermon, it wasn't a speech, it wasn't a bump on the head. Nothing other than the love of Jesus convinced me of His existence.

"More than a name, a faith, a creed." -Jesus is more than a name. He is a living and loving savior! Christianity is more than a faith and something to agree to. You can believe and not have a relationship. I believe in George Washington, but I don't talk to him everyday. It is more! So much more!

"Falling in love with Jesus brought the change in me."- It wasn't going to church, it wasn't reading my bible, it wasn't having Christian friends. It was falling in love with my savior, who has always loved me, I do the rest because I love Him!
