Last Sunday at church Drew sang this amazing song that if I could I would have just stood up and asked them to play a hundred times over so I could take in every word, every note. IT was amazing. I had never heard it before and looked it up. Aparently it is pretty popular right now. It is called “Whatever It Takes” by Lifehouse.
It talks about being willing to do whatever it takes to make a relationship work after pain has been inflicted and hurt has set in. About realizing what it is you have and begging for it. In my short but oh what can feel so long marriage, my husband and I have both been on the giving and receiving side of this song so it hit me especially hard.
I was on the phone with my husband who is out of town for 3 months on work and told him about this amazing song our friend had introduced me to and how much it meant to me and made me think of us. He stopped a second a said that this weekend he was in the car and heard a song he wanted to share with me too. You guessed it.
Before I even told him anything about the song he began to explain how it was about just doing whatever it takes to make things right. I had to stop a moment and rethink if I had let the song title slip and he was just trying to score points or be silly! Nope! I played the song over the phone and he was so excited he got goosebumps.
It was such a neat moment to know that our hearts were in the same place. Maybe a dysfunctional place but hey, sometimes you gotta be grateful for where you are and what you got at that moment! You can check out the song at vh1.com in their top 20.
PEACE!
