I've been reflecting a lot lately on what I need to die to daily (Luke 9:23). Then I heard an old U2 song, which was about a friend of Bono's OD'ing...but Bono's lyrics go so much deeper. He wrote:
" Into the half-light And through the flame
If I could through myself Set your spirit free I'd lead your heart away See you break, break away Into the light And to the day"
For me today that means if I can get myself out of the way and let Jesus' Holy Spirit break out through me, he would bring light to the darkness, a light so bright that it would become daytime. Right now it feels as if I'm only allowing Him to be a flashlight.

Thank you Bono, my modern day psalmist.
