I just learned about this popular song (yeah, just now) “All About That Bass,” which talks nothing about a bass musical instrument or treble in the sense of music; Meghan Trainor somehow uses the word “bass” to refer to the bottom half of the body (I think.) Her message is about not worrying about your weight. It’s actually a grace message, removing the social law that girls face about being thin. I mean it’s true, girls do suffer with fat-phobia which leads to rejection which can lead to Anorexia, bulimia, (bully-me-a), lesbianism, promiscuity, prostitution, abuse and suicide. Horrible things are related to placing such a standard on yourself that one must be a size 2 or 4. People can be attractive on a larger scale than a super model standard (pun intended) which is actually unhealthy anyway, how thin they are. Grace removes the law which actually relaxes a person from stress and allows empowerment for clearer thinking. Watch for future blogs on weight management. I have more to say about the spirituality of food.
For those in Christ, the gospel is “all about that grace.” I heard parodies about Meghan’s song which are using the same tune with Christian lyrics. They are awesome. And every great idea deserves a Tshirt! A Tshirt was born today because of these parodies; however I put my own spin on the words. Instead of “no devil” or “no trouble” I believe the most fitting line is “no struggle.” God wants us to enter His Rest. Hebrews 4:11 says:
“Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.”
Resting in Christ: trusting God to handle your life instead of making all your decisions without Him. It’s super important to learn how to rest
in Him. It’s so important that it is considered disobedience not to enter into that rest. The more we stress and struggle in life indicates how much we are not resting in God’s plan for us. Anxiety is a good indicator of someone who does not yet know how to enter God’s rest. It’s God’s desire that we let go of our plans and slow down our lives until we can hear Him whisper “I love you…”
I really like this palm tree shirt, regarding Grace. I think God has been sending visions of beeches and palm trees to His people. We need to get the message on how to relax so we can have God’s fellowship just like Adam and Eve had, in the beginning. He’s all about that Grace.
