Brandon Heath - I'm Not Who I Was

 

Galatians 5:6- "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love"

 

There is someone I would love to have 15 minutes of conversation with. 

 

15 minutes to share how my life has changed once opening the flood gates of God's love and mercy.  15 minutes to show that I am learning to forgive and that healing does happen... it does exist.  Bitterness/anger/revenge/jealousy/malice/pride/stubbornness/holding a grudge doesn't have to win.  15 minutes to show what the power of God can do when we allow the Holy Spirit to rule our livesand through His love. 

"I'm Not Who I Was"

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was
I used to be mad at you
A little on the hurt side too
But I'm not who I was

I found my way around
To forgiving you some time ago
But I never got to tell you so...

I found us in a photograph
I saw me and I had to laugh
You know I'm not who I was
You were there, you were right above me
And I wondered if you ever loved me
Just for who I was

When the pain came back again
Like a bitter friend
It was all that I could do
To keep myself from blaming you

Thinkin' its a funny thing
Figured out I could sing
Now I'm not who I was
Write about love and such
Maybe cause I want it so much
I'm not who I was

I was thinkin' maybe I
Should let you know
That I am not the same
That I never did forget your name
Hello...

 And the thing I find most amazing
In amazing grace
Is the chance to give it out
Maybe that's what love is all about

I wish you could see me now
I wish I could show you how
I'm not who I was...
