Sometimes when we are listening to songs we don’t realize what we are singing. What we could possibly be saying over our lives and our hearts. Without knowing it, sometimes we listen to songs and carry on the feelings that the song has.  These can be things that are for the good or the bad.
    In high school I used to listen to a song, “Faith like that” by Jonah33. I would at times blare this from my car and sing it at the top of my lungs. Well this song happened to come up on my I-pod recently while I have been out on the race. Without knowing what I was singing with my whole heart back then, I have now realized this song is very deep. This song is what I cried for but I did not know what I would go through before I would be able to get a “faith like that”. I desired a faith like that but the song holds so much more than I thought it did at the time…
 
“Faith Like That”

I have read about the days of old
About the men who followed You
And how they saw the supernatural
And became the chosen few

So I come before You now
Tearing off my earthly crowns
For this ONE THING I have FOUND

[CHORUS:]

I want a faith like that
To see the dead rise or to see You pass by, oh, I
I want a faith like that
Whatever the cost, I’ll suffer the loss, oh, I
I want a faith like that

I’m not looking
for a miracle
Signs and wonders or things thereof

I caught a glimpse of what You want for me
And what I have is not enough

I read the story one more time
Of those who GAVE TO YOU their lives
With NO fear or compromise

[CHORUS]

I want a faith that can move any mountain
And send them to the seas
I want a faith that can break every stronghold
That keeps You, that keeps from me

And I want a faith like that
To see the dead rise or to see You pass by, oh, I

[CHORUS]


I want a faith like that


A faith like that
 
The words are so bold. They are true and real. The desire to live a life like the disciples, to see what they saw. We have heard the stories in the books, about the men who went out and followed Him and dropped all that they had. They dropped all they had known and followed him. They saw things happen, they walked life with him. This is what I desire, but why has it taken me so long to realize why I haven’t been to that point? To the point that I can have “a faith this”.
