Where you won't follow

I often wish I could get away from God; have a healthy, confident, atheistic worldview that allows me to go about my day without concerns of eternity or pain. On those disturbing, hopeful days I plea to God that he would do good things and do them directly so I could give him credit and be certain of his existence and his care--but as it goes, such light often comes through other people. Not how I would put my omnipotence to use.

A blue morning came around this week and my dear bandmate sent over a composition that haunted and stirred my heart, dragging me from the morass and towards wonder. The lyric and chorus pierce me: Do I really love God's thoughts about me? Are they precious? I can't say.

Here it is, Mark's latest composition (a home-recorded scratch track at that), now acting as the overture piece to UH3 "one three nine". I hope you're blessed as I was, and brought to a point of curiosity about a God that thinks lovely and myriad thoughts about you.

"From You to You"
