Like An Avalanche

Every so often a song comes out that truly speaks to you. When I was in middle school I heard a song titled "Every New Day" by Five Iron Frenzy. This was one of those songs for me and has since been my all time favorite song.

In 2007 a friend of mine, Brett Mernin, wrote a song titled "Like A Father Does". This again was one of those songs that made me reflect on who I am and what I believe.

The next year "Mighty To Save" was released and again, became one of those songs that reminded me of who my Savior is. That same year my friend Brett wrote another song titled "To Lead Us On" at the request of my wife-to-be and I. To this day that song is still one of the most meaninful songs to me.

This year a new song was introduced at AWOL: "Like An Avalanche" by Hillsong United. I don't know exactly what it is about this song - the lyrics, seeing it change people's hearts as they sing it in worship, or that it puts words to a Truth that I have not been able to articulate until now about the grace of Jesus. Whatever the case, this song has become one of those songs that just reaches out and grabs hold of my heart. I hope it does the same for you.
