Celine Dion

Ok, Ok... Before you roll your eyes at me bear with me. I heard a song by her today and I started thinking. It was probably about a man or someone in her life. More than likely a man. I started to wonder, what if that man was God. Then it seemed like the song made sense to me. The words all seemed to fit. It happens because He loved me. How many times does it feel like He is the one who was always there. Even though I am fighting Him, He is fighting FOR me. It may seem weird or morbid to think of God in this song but that's just who I am I guess.

Because You Loved Me

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful (baby)
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

(bis)
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me


So, now that I have put an idea into your head does it make sense? Or does it really prove how nuts I am?
I am everything I am Because He loved me.

It's very true. But I think Celine was talking about a man simply because I don't think she would call God "baby" hehehe.

The words mean so much more thought of with God in mind!!

I've heard that song a million times and never thought of it that way. I think about it now and I think I like it better with God as the subject
