Was going through my itunes library the other night in search of a 3 minute song to use with a presentation and came across the song Seasons of Love from the musical Rent. Not only did the song fit with the presentation I was working on, but I cannot get the words out of my head.

How Do You Measure The Life
Of A Woman Or A Man

In Truth That She Learned
Or In Times That He Cried
In Bridges He Burned
Or The Way That She Died

Measure In Love

(Oh you got to you got to remember the love,)
(You know that love is a gift from up above)
(Share love, give love, spread love)
(Measure, measure your life in love.)

Seasons Of Love(2x)

(Measure your life, measure your life in love)

These words have really stuck with me after my latest sermon I think because I am in a place right now where I feel God is really pushing me about the tangible ways that I am sharing the love of God with others. Not just offering up the right words, but truly in my actions as a whole. Measure your life in love. As I think of the example of Jesus, he lived his life in love and in actions of love. Do I do the same? Not nearly as often as I should.
