"Rest Easy"


Right now, this is my newest favorite song. Now, that tends to change fairly often, but for the past week or so, I've been rather stuck on this one.

It is such a beautiful reminder that nothing we do can ever make us more or less acceptable to God. He's taken us just as we are...awful, broken, and ugly - but worth so much to Him.

    2. Yes!! Andrew Peterson is awesome! I haven't heard all this album, but I love "Counting Stars". I love his "Just As I Am" and "World Traveller" and "Many Roads"... So many gems. O.O Now I just bought this one off iTunes... That video made me cry. :'(

  2. I switch favorites regularly, but normally it's with the epic music genre. My absolute favorite used to be Pirates of the Caribbean, then I went to Star Wars, then Hobbit, then Avengers, then Thor, then back to my childhood favorite of Lord of the Rings, then How to Train Your Dragon, and now I am hooked on various pieces fro Two Steps From Hell. Grisly name, stunning music. :)
