He is jealous for me

He loves like a hurricane
i am a tree

I feel like if the Beatles wrote Christian music, it would sound something like that. I am a walrus. I am a tree. Same thing right?

In all honesty, this song is probably changing my life. Just a few lines are on repeat in my head:

He is jealous for me...
and i realize just how beautiful you are and how great your affections are for me...
and i don't have time to maintain these regrets when i think about the way He loves us...

How insightful. I usually experience a lot of feelings and emotions in this song. Emotions are great. God created them to enhance our life experience. But my relationship with Christ is not based on emotions. It is not even based on faith. I know. Shocking. My relationship with Christ is based on facts. And there are quite a few of those in that song.

"Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God." Numbers 34:14

"Give thanks to the God of gods. His love endures forever." Psalms 136:2

"Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret..." 2 Cor. 7:10

These are Biblical truths. This is what my relationship with Christ is based on. Even when I don't feel Him. Even when my faith is small. Even when all the emotions I can muster up are anger, brokenness, denial, or sorrow. The fact is, My God loves me forever. He is jealous for my heart and my trust. And there is no regret when I am in relationship with Him.
