This song is so very powerful....litteraly the power to change someones life. In my life and in my relationship with the woman of my dreams, (who I Love more than could ever be described by any words)I am the one who's "addiction is such a detriment" and there has deffinetly been "difficulty in dealing with me".
I have been a member of 12 step programs for many years and have struggled to stay clean. Three weeks ago, my addiction once again became a demon that litteraly took everything that is important to me. One thing that has always eluded me is faith that there is a God and that he is the grand architect of all that happens and shapes who we are as human beings. Don't get me wrong I have always embraced the "idea" of god and always thought that it is a good way to live life. But being human I tend to want to control things and always thought that with best intentions and efforts, in my ignorance, I am the one who makes life what it is.
I was feeling very low the other day about how shitty life has become and trying to make sense of how I could have done this once again. I played this song. I instantly started crying.
The first set of verses were exactly what I was thinking and my soul was feeling so much pain about the choices I had made and feeling horrible that I of myself could have hurt this beautiful amazing woman that has loved me even through my shortcomings.
I then really started to listen. The second set of verses made me realize something that I never believed. In it he speaks of how he is questioning if this is all meant to be. He asks two questions and I started trhinking about that. Who was he talking too? was he questioning himself. I believe he was having realization of something..... at least it made me realize something....
He kept speaking and said, "My Warship a-lying of the coast of your delicate heart and my aim is steady and true as it's been right fom the start". So why do we do these things? I believe he was also questioning the same as I was why in all his best efforts and intentions, even though he loved her from the bottom of his heart he was still destroying her and wondering why? Sometimes in life we get so far off track that we cause ourselves and the people we love pain. Is that because we are bad people? That is what I always wondered, but deep down I know that I am not. Again I ask why these things happen...
The answer is that God is real. He is also more powerful and loving than I ever imagined... He loves us so much that he is willing to let us live our life and make our mistakes and have our journey without him if that is what we are doing... Even if it hurts him. But he is there in every moment and everything to watch over us and to care for us no matter how difficult we make it for ourselves.He allows us to hurt and feel pain so that one day he hopes we will be humbled enough to realize that being human we will never be perfect and never be able to live up to what our own expectations of self or life. Life is hard at the best of times... He wants the best for us and gives us signs everywhere that he loves us and his whole purpose is to carry us when we can't carry ourselves and to provide us with miracles and lives that are so much more than we could ever imagine or dream. Sometimes we are to self centered to realize everything that I have just mentioned, but God doesn't punish us for that or even care that we sometimes are outright defiant of what his desires are for us.... Imagine a parent and how much they love us unconditionally.... but even more loving and powerful and with the ability to create everything we see from the farthest and most wondrous star to the flowers that I gave my Love ;)... and all he wants is for us to be humble, know he is their and to treat others the best that we can... with love.
Hope this helps someone.... God bless and keep you safe in your life :) Love ANONYMOUS
@doublediamond80 – it is 4 and 1/2 years on from when you wrote this. Here and now, world's apart, I have stumbled across your words and they have struck me with such force and precision that it broke me down, trembling and in tears yet so uplifting and inspiring!
God works in mysterious ways and I have no doubt that your honest account of the pain in your life, your courage to speak about this and most importantly your testimony, declaring that God is real and he is your God, your Heavenly Father! This message you have written back in 2011,...

God works in mysterious ways and I have no doubt that your honest account of the pain in your life, your courage to speak about this and most importantly your testimony, declaring that God is real and he is your God, your Heavenly Father! This message you have written back in 2011, was a vessel for God to speak to me direct, here and now in my office, in Australia, in March 2016.
What a miracle it is! It shows that even when there is pain and darkness, God is indeed there, waiting to be invited in, waiting to be called upon to help. When you acknowledged God, and called out to him, it is obvious in your words that God transformed your life and perspective and carried you out of that darkness, removing your burden. God also used your experiences to speak to me, through your own words years before I would read them.
Your last sentence states: “Hope this helps someone…”
It has 100% helped me and I’m still in awe of the miracle of it.
If anyone else is reading this, questioning whether God is real or not, please make this a moment in your life, right now, that you call out and seek God. There is no right way or wrong way to do this. In your own genuine way, just speak to God and continue to do so every day. It will be from that moment onwards that you will develop a true relationship with your Creator and it will literally be the best thing that will ever happen in your life.
@doublediamond80 & @bmwatto 4.5 years later for someone else, 11.5 for me. Wouldn’t have expected to see comments like this here, but hey… He works in mysterious ways and through you both and straight to me. Thank you both. ???????? This song and everything I found here all moved me when I needed it tonight.
