So I have been getting torn up recently by the song "Only Love Remains" by JJ Heller. I love the fact that the song says, "so be gentle with me Jesus as you tear me apart." In order to be our best, to live uninhibited we have to be willing to be torn apart and rebuilt. Parts of our lives need to be killed and replaced with Christ. Without going on too much and ruining the song with my words I'm going to post the lyrics and the song so that you guys can get torn apart like I have been the past few days.
"Only Love Remains" -- JJ Heller
Scenes of you come rushing through
You are breaking me down
So break me into pieces
That will grow in the ground
I know that I deserve to die
For the murder in my heart
So be gentle with me Jesus
As you tear me apart
Please kill the liar
Kill the thief in me
You know that I am tired of their cruelty
Breathe into my spirit
Breathe into my veins
Until only love remains
You burn away the ropes that bind
And hold me to the earth
The fire only leaves behind whatever is of worth
I begin to see reality
For the first time in my life
I know that I’m a shadow
But I’m dancing in your light
Teach me to be humble
Call me from the grave
Show me how to walk with you upon the waves
Breathe into my spirit
Breathe into my veins
Until only love remains
