A Song for Sunday: "The Maker Loves Me"

I am back with my series titled A Song for Sunday. I took a break for a bit, mainly because I was just so busy. While this summer isn't going to slow down much, I should have time to pick this back up again. My theme for the next 5 weeks or so is going to be about the love of God and His presence in our lives. I could think of no better song to start out with than the new Chris August song playing on the radio titled "The Maker Loves Me."

"The Maker Loves Me" is about how God can be seen and felt in every circumstance in our life. No matter what is going on, the love God has for us is overwhelming and ever present. It has no limits, no strings attached and no guilt. I don't have to worry about God not loving me one day, because He won't ever stop loving me. He may be disappointed in me at times and He may try to teach me a lesson, but He always does everything out of His great love for me. 

The lyrics for this beautiful new praise song are as follows:

"I see You in the sunrise

I see You in the rain

I see You in the laughter

I feel You through the pain

Everything that You have made is beautiful

Oh, my God, I can't believe my eyes

But in all of this to think that You would think of me

Makes my heart come alive

[Chorus:]

Your love is like a mighty fire deep inside my bones

I feel like I could climb a thousand mountains all at once

And I never have to wonder if somebody cares for me

I love the Maker

And the Maker loves me

I see You, You are creation

I see the grandness of Your majesty

The universe is singing all Your glory

I can't believe You live inside of me

Everything that You have made is beautiful

Oh, my God, I can't believe my eyes

But in all of this to think that You would think of me

Makes my heart come alive

[Chorus]

More than just some words upon a page

You've shown me in a million ways

But there is one that stands above them all

Hands of creation on a cross." 

This great love the Maker has for me "is like a mighty fire deep inside my bones" just as the song states. I know I can climb any mountain with Him on my side and His love in my heart. People will fail me when it comes to love. They cheat, lie, steal, and wound with their words. But my God's love never fails. Even on the toughest days, I can feel His presence with me. His love is always there. 

Perhaps you are facing a huge mountain in your life and you aren't sure if you can make it. Just know that with God on your side, you can tackle any mountain no matter how steep the climb may seem. The universe cries out the glory of our God and His love is alive and active inside of us, in our hearts. You never have to wonder if somebody cares for you, because the Maker does and He always will.
