Life-Changing...for real
The Eric Church concert was fantastic, but in full transparency, I have to admit I understood very little of the lyrics. I’d catch a word or phrase, but couldn’t tie it in with anything else. Of course, the audience participation lent abundant clues by raising beers, holding up boots, and waving banners of red, white, and blue. Frankly, like with Squid Game and Ted Lasso--subtitles can be helpful.
One song, however, broke through. For several minutes Eric and Joanna sang “She loves me like....†I could tell he, as well as a multitude of folks around me, were deeply touched by how “she loved himâ€, but I couldn’t decipher just what analogy they were using. Near the end of the song the band fell silent. After a dramatically-long and carefully-timed pause, Eric reignited the song with “Jesus does.â€
What a picture! I was pleasantly surprised by the freshness of the line. It’s not what I was expecting. Having heard dozens of songs about a rugged, beaten-up-by-life, hard-loving cowboy of a man being loved by a delicate and sensitive woman who sees to his worthy core, I was expecting the end of the line to be more predictable and cliche.
“...like Jesus does†really made the song, I thought. Touching, memorable, and elevating. A good way to end a chorus and begin the wrap-up portion of the set list.
Until the next morning.
I woke up in a figurative cold-sweat. I wasn’t cold or sweating, but the unsettling feeling within me gripped me and I knew the revelation within me demanded formal expression. I was beginning to feel it held the power to change lives. Well, at least change my life.
Surely, “loving like Jesus did†is not a new concept. I could explain that notion in theological terms. I could give examples of attempts to display it. I’ve even been on mission trips where we felt like we were doing all in our human power to “love like Jesus†for a few weeks in a far-away land among people with whom we had little in common and would likely never see again.
Somehow, that idea was not the same as the one the talented and hard-working folks on the stage that night were singing about. Somehow the denim-and-boots man in the bright lights, whom you felt had been through the wringer and had been picked up with compassion and empathy by a true companion and lover, was not speaking about theology or a short-term mission trip.
That cut deep.
That type of love can’t be faked. That level of love transforms and penetrates. No one escapes unchanged. Having seen this picture, I couldn’t turn away. I felt compelled to use it as measuring stick--not of how I am loved, but how I love.
I don’t know if I can love like Jesus does--or anywhere close, but I know I can love better than I do. I don’t need to be able to love in an “all-powerful†way, I but I can try to love in an “all-in†way. Loving like Jesus doesn’t have to be with healing and forgiveness that eradicates a sin nature. But it can mean sitting with someone through the not-so-healing times and forgiving offenses in a way that allows someone to start over and experience abundant life without the weight of condemnation.
Surely I can make an attempt in that direction.
I’ll be okay if I don’t get the opportunity to share love and resources to those in a far-off land, but I’m not okay with walking past a person on the street in front of our home and not taking advantage of a possible invitation to connect and encourage one another.
I can’t usher in the dawn of a new day for mankind, but I can allow my wife to wake up in a space where we both have a renewed chance to experience life together absent of grudges, resentment, or feeling our unworthiness will affect our partner’s love for us. What would that feel like?!
I suspect many of us will hear about love in a worship service on Sunday morning, but I felt I learned quite a bit about love at a Church service on Saturday night. ... Read more
