This Could Be The Song That Will Change Your Heart

"This Could Be The Song That Will Change Your Heart" by Kids in the Way

There's a burning in my heart everyday
I come to You, I look to You and say
When will I become everything
That You've intended me to be

I'm beating at my chest everyday
I run to You, I come to You and say
When will I become everything
That You've intended me to be

I am so tired
I am so beaten
From walking down this road of shattered dreams
I am so lonely
I am so broken
Won't you come, won't you rescue me?
Won't you rescue me?

[I'll be the light inside of you and won't let go of you]
Come rescue me, won't you come, won't you come
I'm calling out your name

I am so tired
I am so broken
Won't you come, won't you come?
I am so lonely
I am so broken
Won't you come, won't you come and rescue me?
I come to you and look to you and say
[I'll be the light inside of you and won't let go of you]

When I saw the title of this song, it sounded intriguing to me. So I pulled up the lyrics and listened to it. Little did I know, this song would hit home for me. We all get discouraged sometimes. We want to be everything that God intends for us to be, but there's always something that gets in the way. Something always seems to separate us from what we want to be. But those barriers are never permanent. These struggles and barriers are shaping us into becoming everything God intends for us to be. We can't get down because of a stupid mistake we made. Someone once said to me that "There are some mistakes that you've made that you think are huge, but I know that they are human." It couldn't have been said any better. We are all humans, so forgive yourself for the mistake you made. Don't get down because things aren't going the best with a friend. Work it out and enjoy the time you have with that friend. If you are struggling with something else, find a trusted friend or adult who you can talk to and who will listen. Unless you can find a way to move on from the bad times, you won't be able to be that person that God wants you to be. You may be tired and broken, but God will save you from these troubles in an unexpected way. You just have to be ready for that. He will come and rescue you.

Peace and Conflict

Can conflict exist without there first being peace? Can peace exist without there first being conflict? At first glance, most would say yes. Why couldn’t they exist without each other? In fact, how could they exist with each other? However, when you take a closer look, this becomes an interesting topic to look into.

We can have peace because we have lived through conflict. Without conflict, peace would just be life. There would be nothing special about peace. Adam and Eve did not understand peace when they were in the Garden of Eden. Peace was life to them, because they had never known conflict. When conflict came into their lives, they strived for peace again. But peace is never understood without conflict. Peace is something everyone strives for. Peace is what every adult tries to bring into their household. Why? Because of conflict. Conflict is why everyone wants peace.

In the same way, we have conflict because we have known peace. Two opposites are not important without each other. What would be so special about life if it were not followed by death? What would be so fascinating about the sun if it did not give into darkness every night? Something is missed when it disappears. Something is missed when something different takes its place. Something is missed when it is replaced by something contrary to it. Conflict would have never been a big deal if peace did not exist.

Something important is made important when it is challenged. Who we are is not found until we face an opposition. Challenges occur when two different things meet each other. Peace is not found unless conflict is present. Conflict is not conflict unless peace had existed before it. The more we understand conflict, the more we understand peace. With peace comes conflict. Can conflict exist without there first being peace? Can peace exist without there first being conflict? Maybe, but we could not have understood peace or conflict without the other. Peace and conflict must coexist together. What is peace without conflict? The same as what light is without darkness.
