'til i only dwell in Thee

Heartless: The Story of the Tin Man from Brandon McCormick on Vimeo.


this was released about ten months ago.
it should make you cry.
there's not much that is more heartbreaking than someone getting so lost in doing something for someone they love that they forget who they love and how to love them best.
but it's easy, and we all do.
it's that classic example of a spouse saying 'i'm too busy doing washing for you and cooking for you and cleaning for you and working for you'. while all the while it would be enough for the other if they were to simply to sit with them and say 'how was your day?'.

and i do it to jesus constantly. and i'm so sorry for it. because at the end of my days i don't want to be a tin man, old and rusty, forgetting who i've given my heart to.

i want to delight in you, jesus, and, at the end of it all, to rejoice in your sweet and precious promises, and sing 'my heart is yours, Love, yours alone, Love,' each and everyday, for forever.
