My Jesus Anthem!  As I continue on my spiritual journey, I notice that most of my daily thoughts are focused on God.  If I’m home, I pray often, read spiritually enlightening books, prepare for my Friday morning prayer group and other studies.  When out and about, I enjoy listening to music in the car.  Not only do I enjoy the beat of the music but  I focus more on the words of a song and I try to relate it all back to God.
My desire to find God in all things, especially music, stems from my teaching CCD. Â I wanted to find a way for my students to shift their focus from things of “the world” to God. Â The first challenge I posed was with music. Â They were to find popular songs and see if they could be related to God. Â I wanted to try to get them to see God and think of God throughout their day, not just on Sunday.
I get so excited when I hear a popular song on the radio that I can turn into a “religious” song. Â Like the One Call Away by Charlie Puth I blogged about before. Â Today, I want to share I Choose You by Sara Bareilles. Â It’s a beautiful song. Â It’s my song to Jesus. Â My Jesus Anthem! Â Listen here.
