Okay, reflection time!!!

It's time to pause and reflect!!! On what? A quote? No. A word? Nope, not today. A Bible verse? Close, but no metaphorical lemons. Well, what? A SONG!!! There are a couple songs that I wanna get around to reflecting on, but let's start with one. Okay, this was the first song that I sang at youth group. It's called "Priceless" by Copeland. If you recall, I had a link to it yesterday...well, I think it was yesterday. Yes, yesterday. Well, here are the lyrics:

"I remember when I'd run to you
through field of white flowers
Your embrace is my air
How I needed you there
And all of the world and
All of it's powers
Couldn't keep your love from me no
Couldn't keep your love from me

Cause I need you
Like the dragonfly's wings need the wind
Like the orphan needs home once again
Like heaven needs more to come in I need you here like you've always been

And then I waved goodbye to you
From fields of white flowers
You were so proud of me
I was too proud to see that
All of the world and
All of it's powers
Couldn't keep your love from me no
Couldn't keep your love from me
Cause I need you
Like the dragonfly's wings need the wind
Like the orphan needs home once again
Like heaven needs more to come in
I need you here like you've always been

Taking for granted (taking for granted)
... all of her smiles
That got away
And now I'm looking up to you
From fields of white flowers
You were so proud of me
I'm so proud of you
All of the world and
All of it's powers
Couldn't keep your love from me no
Couldn't keep your love from me

Cause I need you
Like the dragonfly's wings need the wind
Like the orphan needs home once again
Like heaven needs more to come in
I need you here I need you
Like the dragonfly's wings need the wind
Like the orphan needs home once again
Like heaven needs more to come in I need you here like you've always been "


Okay, so let's concentrate on what that means. Sure, it's a beautiful song, but it is far more beautiful once we know what it means. To me, it's a song about how we need God. Actually, no, it's more why we need God. It says "I need you like a dragonfly's wings need the wind" to me, that means that we need God in order to be useful. Because think about a dragonflies. They need their wings to work in order to fly. So maybe it's like God gives us the ability to fly. Because think about it. If we are like dragonflies, dragonflies need their wings to survive. It let's them get food, their wings help them meet people. So God is like our wings. He's like our survival. We need him to survive. Sure, without wings dragonflies could live a while, but they die way before they are supposed to. So without wings, we would metaphorically die. You know, conform to the patterns of the earth and all that. We need God as our wings so that we stay stronge. So that we can live. That's just what I think. I could expand more on the rest of the song, but that was the part that really jumped out at me.
