Unconditionally

The other day while coming home the song Unconditionally by Katy Perry came on and something that we all started to talk about is how we all see this as a song from the Lord. This then sparked a conversation on how when we listen to love songs even if they are secular we can turn it around to point back to Jesus. 

I really started to notice this in me when I was listening to music on death road in Bolivia heading to our ministry site. It was night time and all I could see was a river and the stars and moon shining above and the song I Like to Be With Me When I’m With You by Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors. When listening to that song it made me realize I like how I am when I am so in-tune with the Lord and then when different love songs would play on my iPod, I would start to immediately think about Jesus. 

This car reminded me how how I still will think about Jesus when listening to a love song, especially Unconditionally by Katy Perry. When I listen to this song I just hear Jesus singing those words to me because that he loves me no matter what and there is no condition to his love. 

Another song I have recently stumbled upon is Hollow by Tori Kelly and the chorus hands down is what I have learned in myself. I am fragile and I am hollow and I want my cup to be filled with His love. When I listen to this song I immediately start singing it to Jesus and how I know there is a whole in me that only He is meant to fill. I love how we can see Jesus in the secular!!!
