Ironic. I am not sure. I was reading "Death by Love" last night and it had a reference to Matt. 15:17-20. For some reason I noticed that my new Bible has what Jesus speaks in red. I have only had this Bible for 6 months and only read it at least 4 times a week. Goodness Sarah. I realized though, that when I read a passage with Red letters, I tend to read it more then once and take it in a completely different way. I believe that I take more notice because it's words coming directly from His mouth. I also feel like, sometimes, He is saying them to me directly. Yes, yes I know He is and that is the point but, sometimes I feel like he is starring at me saying "Hello, get it?" Back to my "Woah" moment, again, I came into work, turned on my computer, logged into my phone and turned on my iPod. I am still in my "Love" playlist. Two songs in I came upon "Red Letters" by DC Talk. I sat there for a short moment and couldn't believe how the night before I sat there, dwelling on the fact I took these Red letters differently. This song completely wrapped up what I was feeling. The best part, I kept bugging Michael last night, trying to remember this song. I guess it was meant to be.
Red Letters
Pages filled with a holy message
Sealed with a kiss from heaven
On a scroll long ago
Phrases, words that were bound together
Now have the power to sever
Like a sword evermore
Heed the words divinely spoken
May your restless heart be broken
Let the supernatural take hold
(chorus)
There is love in the red letters
There is truth in the red letters
There is hope for the hopeless
Peace and forgiveness
There is life in the red letters
In the red letters
One man came to reveal a mystery
Changing the course of history
Made the claim He was God
Ageless, born of a virgin Mary
Spoke with a voice that carried through the years
It's persevered
Heed the words divinely spoken
May your restless heart be broken
Let the supernatural take hold
What You say moves me, revelation, come and take me
The more I look [the more I look] the more I see [the more I see]
The Word of God [the Word Of God] is what I need
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Yeah, it's the book of love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's the book of love
That moves
Sealed with a kiss from heaven
On a scroll long ago
Phrases, words that were bound together
Now have the power to sever
Like a sword evermore
Heed the words divinely spoken
May your restless heart be broken
Let the supernatural take hold
(chorus)

Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's the book of love
That moves
Speak to me, breathe in me new life
Let Him in your heart
