Lacey Sturm (Flyleaf) has premiered a new video for her new song “Reconcile.” You can check that out below:
Sturm commented:
“My own humanity can be so divided. When I cling to my rights by pointing out the faults of others, I splinter myself. All of this division is rooted in my own pride. Have I arrogantly supposed that I could somehow reconcile the world around me if I am not reconciled within myself?”
“As soon as I cultivate peace within myself, the world around me starts falling into peace too— my kids, my family, my friends, the person at the checkout in the grocery store.”
“It causes a mental health crisis when we mortals are trying to change the world, but all the while we’re neglecting the life that’s within us. I’m not actually saving the world when I think of myself as some godlike savior. Ultimately, I end up losing my humanity in that hypocritical process. I am neglecting life while I’m telling them to live.”
“I have to die to myself before I can live.”
