I'm not terribly familiar with this artist, but I saw this video today and had to share. Song is called "The Same Love" by Paul Baloche, who though a quick google search is a pastor & musician who has written a number of popular Christian songs.
I love the imagery of the red cups, and the people on the street walking by who's ears are covered by headphones or earmuffs. Life is like that - we can't hear the music because we have already filled our ears with something else. We walk right on by and miss something wonderful.
In the creation story of Narnia, right before Aslan says "Love. Think. Speak." he first says "Awake!". The main difference between being awake and being asleep is being aware of what is going on around you. The people in the video walk right on by the hanging red cups, unaware that something wonderful is happening right there next to them. There are a number of times in life where I'm that person. And so everyday I have to re-examine for just a moment, and make sure I'm awake and aware that people like Paul Baloche are calling from the roof tops and singing a message of hope.
Happy Valentine's Day!
