Second Sunday of Advent: "Healing Begins" by Tenth Avenue North

So I had a rough day today and I need something to tell me it will be okay, that I can continue.  I found this song:

The Video:




The Lyrics:

So you thought you had to keep this up 
All the work that you do 
So we think that you're good 
And you can't believe it's not enough 
All the walls you built up 
Are just glass on the outside 

So let 'em fall down 
There's freedom waiting in the sound 
When you let your walls fall to the ground 
We're here now 

This is where the healing begins, oh 
This is where the healing starts 
When you come to where you're broken within 
The light meets the dark 
The light meets the dark 

Afraid to let your secrets out 
Everything that you hide 
Can come crashing through the door now 
But too scared to face all your fear 
So you hide but you find 
That the shame won't disappear 

So let it fall down 
There's freedom waiting in the sound 
When you let your walls fall to the ground 
We're here now 
We're here now, oh 

This is where the healing begins, oh 
This is where the healing starts 
When you come to where you're broken within 
The light meets the dark 
The light meets the dark 

Sparks will fly as grace collides 
With the dark inside of us 
So please don't fight 
This coming light 
Let this blood come cover us 
His blood can cover us 

This is where the healing begins, oh 
This is where the healing starts 
When you come to where you're broken within 
The light meets the dark 
The light meets the dark

Short Reflection:
I am so broken today.  I know I have been writing a lot of about hope, but inside I am still very broken and still hurting a lot.   I am scared to ask for help most days.  My secret that I hide is tearing me apart, it hurts me a lot and yet I continue to fall.   I know I am resisting the healing because of so many reasons.  I hope this songs give you hope as it gives me hope.
