By Your Side

This Sunday at LifePoint we are introducing a new worship song titled By Your Side from the band Tenth Avenue North. As I was taking time to explore the song, I found some interview pieces with Mike, the singer/writer. Here are a few thoughts from him behind the song which lead to my decision to use it at LifePoint:

The song is God talking to us reassuring us of the concepts of how His love works.
ALL of us have some things jacked up in life that break the heart of God and frustrate Him
We can NOT earn God's love and grace.
Focus on what He has done for us.
We think we have to "clean up" before we can approach God.
We can come to God during our farthest and darkest moments.
Jesus died for us, knowing we would spit on Him, to provide a way for us to be with God.
Forgiveness is available right where we fall... right when we fall.

Gonna be good this weekend (like every weekend).

Live loud, live intentionally, and love God and people with every word and every action.
