Slowly start to build... A Beautiful City.

The musical Godspell is currently performing with a revival cast in New York City. Unfortunately, I was not able to see the show while I was in NYC, but I had so many people recommend the music to me that I had to listen for myself and see what the buzz was about. I'm not familiar with the plot or how accurate it is to Jesus' life, but that's not what this post is about. I've listened to the soundtrack on Spotify over and over again, and one song truly stands out. The song, "Beautiful City" is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard in a long time. Here is his performance of the song on YouTube: Beautiful City by Hunter Parrish

Some lyrics that are particularly meaningful to me today: 

"Out of the ruins and rubble, can we see a ray of hope?" 

 "When your trust is all but shattered. When your faith is all but killed. You can give up, bitter and battered. Or you can slowly start to build..." 

I hope that this video finds you in those moments when you feel hopeless, anxious, tired, or lonely. God definitely brought this song to mind today to remind me that rebuilding is possible, hope still exists, and to put all my trust in Him. God really knows that speaking to me through music is a direct line to my heart and soul. Thank you God for knowing me so...
