Just right from the first time I heard it. For me it helps me see beauty in the past and understand that life’s high stakes bring meaning to my actions. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love how it eases in with growing optimism as my life has. 2:22 is where I am now, ready to choose joy not because life is easy or perfect but because I’m capable of choosing it.

It was like a ray of light to me too. Check out pure shores. All saints used him before Madonna.
