One of the biggest ways to participate in church on Sundays is worship. A simple, original definition of worship is: A time to lift up the Lord through singing and music, and display love towards God, while also understanding how great He is.
When you go to church and are observing worship, you will hear a variety of songs. In a lot of sermons, you apply the concept of having God at the center of our lives, not just because you believe in Christ, but you love Christ.
1. Center My Life
The title "Center My Life" suggests the idea of a relationship where one person is 'dependent' on the other because their life circles around that other person. Whichever one is being dependent on the other, it shows that there are guys who, when they really love a girl, will do anything to be with her. I understand that it can be a bit smothering, but would you ever not want to be with someone who cares?
2. Broken Vessels
In one way or another, you will experience moments when you feel broken. When you feel broken, it hurts, no question, and you will be very tough on yourself. But because you trust in God, you believe that it will come back together. "Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me." reminds you that there is somebody out there who still sees the beauty in you even when you feel broken.
3. O Come To The Altar
In the feeling of brokenness, you feel empty as well, and it hurts to be feeling empty. It snowballs into a bunch of other tough feelings, such as being overwhelmed, or just feeling like giving up. But when you see a special man, he'll remind you that you got here to where you are now because you didn't give up. You didn't quit. You sought out what you needed to get by. Now that you are in a new relationship, you will find that your man is forgiving to you, and you don't have to worry about any regrets or mistakes you have. You can feel a sense of security.
4. Your Promises
When it's true love, you will notice that your man (or woman) will promise to you that he or she will not leave. Since the promise is made, a plan is made, and nothing will stop that, and nothing will take away the love that he or she has for you. You'll feel the weight bearing down but God will uphold His end of the bargain for that love connection to last. It's important to know, however, "You'll always be more than enough for me."
5. Good Good Father
If you have ever asked someone for relationship advice, 9 times out of 10 you will be told to "be yourself." Part of the reason is that you have questions about the person who you think you love. It's a tender whisper that love exists, when you think it is nothing but a dead end. You hear a thousand stories of what that special girl is like, whether it's about her personality or her appearance. Consider Christ Jesus, who always is Himself, who is always the loving/calming/protecting presence. You are being loved not only by Him, but there always is somebody who is loving you too.
6. The Stand
If you are in a relationship or have found somebody whom you find to be genuinely special, you just want to offer your heart to that person, whether that is by opening up to them about your past, or to remind him or her that you are right there for them. It's a feeling that leaves you feeling, "Wow!" and you simply are in awe and at a loss for words. You think to yourself, "So, what can I say? And what can I do, but offer this heart, oh, God, completely to you" — It brings a component of confidence that you will feel full in your heart.
7. Jesus Paid It All
When a man genuinely loves you, he'll forgive you over and over. He knows that you have made mistakes, but he'll give you multiple chances. He'll give you the opportunity to redeem yourself.
8. Higher Wider Deeper
Love is beautiful. When it's between a woman and man who want to be committed to each other, it's unbreakable, undeniable, and nothing will ever separate them. It's the greatest of all.
9. The Ninety-Nine
"Merciful and mighty, the love you left the ninety-nine" tells you about how you are one of the chosen ones, where 99 times out of 100, it is someone else. But this time, when it really matters, you are the chosen one. I want you to know that because you are the chosen one, it serves as a reminder that you are loved.
10. How Deep The Father's Love For Us
When you're committed to another person, you'll experience that deep love. It's sometimes difficult to measure how deep that is, but you know that you're in love. More importantly, you're supposed to treasure that, because you know that you are supposed to be valued, and your partner is supposed to be valued just as much.
These songs display the feeling of what love is and what love can be, and proves that true love does exist.
