Redeemed

Part of the reason I love the job I am in, is because I'm constantly encouraged and around positive influence.
Today, I had the privilege of looking at Worship Videos and my Pastor showed me this one he came across. This is in life of his and our talk yesterday and I'm so thankful for this NEW song in my life.
If you would like to see the video...

Big Daddy Weave (Christian Music Artists)
Redeemed

Seems like all I could see was the struggle
Haunted by ghosts that lived in my past
Bound up in shackles of all my failures
Wondering how long is this gonna last
Then You look at this prisoner and say to me "son
Stop fighting a fight it's already been won"

I am redeemed, You set me free
So I'll shake off these heavy chains
Wipe away every stain, now I'm not who I used to be
I am redeemed, I'm redeemed

All my life I have been called unworthy
Named by the voice of my shame and regret
But when I hear You whisper, "Child lift up your head"
I remember, oh God, You're not done with me yet

I am redeemed, You set me free
So I'll shake off these heavy chains
Wipe away every stain, now I'm not who I used to be

Because I don't have to be the old man inside of me
'Cause his day is long dead and gone
Because I've got a new name, a new life, I'm not the same
And a hope that will carry me home

I am redeemed, You set me free
So I'll shake off these heavy chains
Wipe away every stain, 'cause I'm not who I used to be
I am redeemed, You set me free
So I'll shake off these heavy chains
Wipe every stain, yeah, I'm not who I used to be

Oh, God, I'm not who I used to be
Jesus, I'm not who I used to be
'Cause I am redeemed
Thank God, redeemed


-Song sure speaks so much truth in my life right now. I'm not who I use to be, but I do know that God working in my life and making me into something. This song was created this year, 2012 by Big Daddy Weave. I find it rather fitting for me today, THIS week that I first now hear it. :) God is always showing you things at the exact time you are suppose to.
Thank you Jesus for Big Daddy Weave and the amazing artists they are and the gifts you have given them. They have created some amazing truths through music! Thank you for their blessings on many lives.
Thank you for giving me this song, TODAY! No greater time than today. Thank you for showing me love and support when I feel at my weakest of days. You never fail me. The world might fail us, but you NEVER will. Thank you for that constant reminder!

  1. I love that song, Kelly. I think I'll have to start playing it for myself on those long, hard days where I feel like I've failed at everything! It's a great reminder that God isn't finished with any of us, yet! :)
