My Wish

I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow,

 And each road leads you where you want to go.

And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,

But more than anything, more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get.

Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
And you always give more than you take.

But more than anything, yeah, and more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

This is my wish
I hope you know somebody loves you
May all your dreams stay big.

     Rascal Flatts sings this song, and every time I listen to it, I think it has two meanings. The first, of course, is the band singing about a loved one or some such. However, if you really pay attention to the lyrics, you can read between the lines, see the possibly-unintended-meaning in the words. What I'm saying is that this song could be sung from a person to a person, or, if you think about it, could be a glimpse of what God wants for us each and every day. His wish is for us to live life to the fullest, to forgive and never regret, to find grace and love in His arms and strength, to make wise decisions, to live through obstacles-and keep searching until we find the way out.

     So this, is my wish for you-I wish you will live life. I wish you will search for God's grace-and when you find it, live for Him. I wish you will do someone a kindness, and ask only in return for a kindness given to another in need. This, is my wish.

    May God bless you greatly, make His face shine upon you, and may you ever find peace and love in the strength of His arms.

Love y'all!
