Sweetly Broken.

Pinned Image

I heard my favorite worship song on the drive over the pass this evening. The sun was setting over the rolling hills of Eastern Washington and it. was. glorious. So glorious in fact, that for one moment in time, I forgot I was driving in the.little.engine.that.could, clunking along at 50mph in a 70, while recklessly being passed by semi-trucks . . . none of that mattered & for a few good moments, all things in this world felt peaceful : ) Listening to this song at the conclusion of a very long week may or may not have brought this sappy soul to tears. The words of Jeremy Riddle's "Sweetly Broken" are so simple. powerful. genuine. pure. and true. 


"at the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and i am

lost for words, so lost in love,
i’m sweetly broken, wholly surrendered."



I love how this song reminds me that it's not about me. Not even close. What a beautiful reminder of God's love, grace and power in my life.  


If you have never heard this beautiful little ditty, here's an acoustic cover by Brian Wahl, for your listening pleasure. And here's the most adorable cover, which just may melt your heart into a million little pieces.
