Chris' prayer: Cheer Up Charlie's "I am Not Moving"

I am not moving until You move me

Stubbornness.

Stubbornness generally has a negative connotation with it. It often accompanies a closed mind and perhaps even a hard heart. Demands come along for the ride with stubbornness much of the time, and even a sense of being better than something or someone else.

And that is the sense I got from this song when I first hit play, but after listening through it, really for the first time, that is not what it is about at all. Instead, the author uses the word humbly multiple times and speaks of needing God's presence. Instead of being stubbornness, this is a song about handing over one's will and accepting God's. It is the exact opposite of what I first expected it to be.

So move in me
