Speaking through Songs

God has a various ways of speaking to us.  Aside from the Bible and the priest's homily during mass, He usually speaks to me through songs.

And here are the songs that I believe God used to convey His message to me.



A Thousand Years by Christina Perri. My first blog post was actually about this song. Just check my post regarding how God touched me with this song.





Panalangain by Monstar88. I was in a jeepney on my way to work when this song suddenly popped into my head. After singing (in my head) the song's first verse, I just smiled and said, " Thank you, Lord. Yan din ang panalangin ko eh (That is also my prayer)."




Burn by Tina Arena. I was cleaning our house when God talked to me through this song. My favorite part is the line that says, "Be anyone you want to be bring to life your fantasies but I want something in return... I want you to burn, burn for me baby like a candle in my night. Oh burn, burn for me... burn for me." It's as if God is reminding me that I can do anything and I can be successful in everything I do as long as I do it with passion, with love, and as long as I do it for Him.




Till They Take my Heart Away by MYMP. I was quietly reading in our house when our neighbor turned on their radio really loud and this is the song that was playing. And the line that says, " Even If I lost you, It'll be ok... 'Coz I will love you, 'till they take my heart away" really struck me. I believe it's God way of saying that even if I choose to do what's wrong and even if I forget about Him, He will still love me...




Fix You by Coldplay. I was treating my patient when this song played over the radio... It just tells me that in those times that I failed, that I maybe broken, or in those time that I feel tired in my situation, all I have to do is go to Him and Trust Him for He will fix what's out of order in my life.


The next time you listen to music, try listening beyond the tune and melody, try focusing on the lyrics... Try focusing on the message of the song... Because it could be through that song that God will talk to you...
