  • ...to finish my phrase I'm perfectly content in whatever God LEADS me to.

  • Thank you so much for sharing your life and talent. Most of all thank you for sharing the cornerstone Our Lord Jesus Christ. Your song is a beautiful reminder to keep asking our Lord to lead us. Stay focused in the Bible for His guidance. I was married & divorced three times and am sure it didn't work because I made choices without asking for God's LEAD. Now I have a very close relationship with Jesus and if he sees fit he will bring me a new husband. If not I am perfectly content in whatever

  • my parents divorced and us much as i would have wanted my parents to stay together i think it would have hurt me more to stay in an enviorment where it was best to keep your thoughts to yourself to keep from getting in trouble im happier since they divorced and it was best for them but the song makes me remeber the wish that my dad was there for me more

  • it's really rare to have that many likes and no dislikes but they deserve it

  • I have cried every time I hear this song. It put into words how I have felt for so long in my marriage and I'm sure how my kids felt as well. My husband has finally started growing up at the age of 47 and stopped being selfish and self-centered. He still has to let go and allow God to lead his life and stop depending on himself!

    Thank you for allowing the world to heal through your pains!! While I am sorry you went through the suffering it shows God's mercy and grace and a true witness!

  • I can't listen to this song without tears. Thank you. :)

  • as a single 23 year old musician i wondered what would happen when i get married, and if i can be that "rock and leader" that your wife speaks of, i thank you both for your testimony, my parents are divorced and i will not let that happen, when i hear your song, i am encouraged that divorce does not have to be the path that i take... thank you both so so much, blessings!

  • AMEN brother!!! My wife and I have been going through similiar struggles, "faith-growers" and we got to the same point your wife and you describe. Believe it that your song came into our lives right when we needed to hear that we weren't alone on this journey as husband and wife. Praise God our marriage is better and stronger than it has ever been.. Thank you for your honesty in writing this song and for your determination to put God first in your lifes and your marriage..

  • I love this song...thank you for your your honesty and willingness to address true life issues

  • A Prayer for ALL Couples...FIGHT FOR YOUR MARRIAGE!!!!! It's the most important fight of your life, and the lives of your children. THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE "THE FAMILY"

  • It was refreshing to hear this song when I did. That someone would be able to express what men feel and deal with when life becomes twisted, uncertain, and the heart and love is on the line. I cry usually when I hear it because it crosses beyond that into anyone's life. To be reminded God is beside me when I feel alone and unwanted helps me to move through this life. And it also helps to stay in touch with my son, as he struggles with his own family and life.

  • i am a big fan and i am 11 years old and your kids are so cute and hope you wife and kid are doing well and enjoy your baby son

    and i am a chistren and i know we all go throw stroggels and i have gone throw a stroggel to so i am praying and hope you enjoy your life

  • I don't know how many times I've seen this... but it hits me everytime. This reminds me of the man I want to be.

  • Now you can't tell me what GOD can't do.

  • I cried. 

  • I consider myself a good husband to my wife and good dad to my four kids, but this song has made me rededicate myself to them and the Lord. Matt, you and your band are truly doing the Lord's work. God Bless You!

  • Absolutely beautiful story! I love the song and cried the first time I heard it. :-)

  • Beautiful! It made me cry to hear you talk about your marriage and how you decided to fight...and the song...I absolutely love the song...I cried the first time I heard it.

  • The most important part of marriage is YAHUSHUA ha MASHIACH/JESUS CHRIST. Place and love HIM first in your marriage and individual lives and in HIS abundance of love, will it pour out into your marriage. That is why the world needs God. There is no lasting love without YAHUSHUA being foremost. If you've made your spouse first in your life, your love will run out. Love YAHUSHUA first and foremost. HIS love cause you to love each other and be affectionate as long as HIS name is YAHUSHUA.

  • For the women (wives), your kisses are so precious to men. They try to lead but your affection and love makes it so much more delightful and easier. Value them and let them know they're all you want and need. Respect them as God commands, if they are in line with God's will. I know women need to be respected also not just loved. I know women want to feel valued and important, so men let your wives know. and also show her that you would do anything for her and your children.

  • Men, As leader of a household, you must serve your wife. Serve her in love and affection and comfort. Don't lead her through the power of your flesh but indulge in the love of God so that HE may pour out through you in HIS abundance, that you may lead your wife in love. Lead her by example and earn her respect; force will get you nowhere, but to a damaged relationship where there is power struggle and no love. Kiss her and tell her you love her. For the women, men need affection and respect too

  • this song is great it did get to me because i wasn't able to resolve the conflict in my first marriage but it shows me what i have to do now so that i don't loose the new love in my life

  • powerful! Every husband should listen to this!

  • This is a very emotional song. I love this song!!!

  • This is so precious! I pray my husband will be like this. (:

  • What every Christian home needs! The man must be Led by Christ,not by his own power, otherwise it turns into a dictatorship and leaves the home without LOVE!

  • god is a great god if u believe this thumbs up!

  • @zebrapinkie101 thumbs up times a billion :P

  • this is an AWSOME song that hits SOOOOO close to home. My heart cryes out to my husband the way hers did. I just pray for my husbands salvation so that I no longer have to lead our children alone and so that I can have his help and support in our home. Dear Lord I'm tired of being alone

  • Oh my goodness, I just heard this song for the first time last week and tears came gushing down my eyes. The lyrics are amazing and I just passed it on to my family, friends and on GATHER.com, FB and Twitter..

  • WAY TO GO that you worked on it...this is so powerful, my marriage is in trouble and my husband has filed for divorce in Apr 2010 and there are 4 kids involved..Mighty GOD change the hearts of husbands and wives to do YOUR WILL and MARRIAGES ROCK FOR GOD.........thank you for sharing your story and keep doing it all for GOD

  • This song makes me and my friend cry every time we hear it :'(

  • This is SOOOO good! We are at the same point in our marriage. We are very committed, and love each other but we have had so much stress that there is a big wall.

  • AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!T­hey're so cute together. I want a family like that when I grow up.

  • i love this song! it tears me up, and its always on my mind, because i do want God to always lead me:D and I really can't do this alone. :D

  • just amazing...

  • Worship Musician here facing the same Satanic attacks here in Vegas...thanks for your piece that helps tie all the things I have learned from " A Weekend to Remember" . Matt you are a great servant for your family and other Christian musicians.

  • I wish my husband would lead our family. he needs to give his life back to Christ. It is so hard for me cause i do feel alone.And i don't believe in divorce and i wont to work it out. I pray for him everyday. and i am keeping faith that he will change, so i know he will turn around sooner or later but in the meantime it hard. please pray for my family.

  • @dixiechic36x - This video was very powerful to me, it reminded me of my duty to my wife and family. Keep praying for him, i wonder does your husband have anyone that asks him "hey how you doing?" i find men are alone and have no one to pick them up, dust them off and say good job, now get back in there. We are a quiet lonely group but never ask, have him watch this video with you.

  • @dixiechic36x I'm facing the same things with my husband, sadly most men are not taught how to lead and don't have the example. They are not born knowing how to do it, and I know it can be a struggle. I have felt very alone this past year. Keep trying, keep praying, and be honest yet gentle about your longing for him and your longing for your marriage to be the best it can be. Try not to push him or whine, and most of all try not to become bitter. You are not alone.

  • @stargrl06, dixiechic36x,&others...How long do you think God expects us to wait, beg, plead? How much do we go through to keep our families together? I have lost myself completely. My once loving & Godly husband is gone, now punishes me through withholding love and all emotional needs. Inside I know he's a good man, a good father, & a Godly leader, which is why I stay, keep fighting for our marriage. Do you think God expects us to stay while being emotionally abused?

  • @noregretsN2010 go to the courageoushomekeeping blog, and check out the Oct 5th post "Quitter or Stayer"

  • @noregretsN2010 ...as long as he want us to hold on. I don't say this callously, my heart goes out to you. I know my wife has with held love and affection so long I can't even imagine ever being with her as husband and wife. It is very difficult.

    But yet God has given me strength to hold on .To what I don't know at times.

    But He does. I ask everyday for God to help me and He does.

    My greatest fear is that she has walked away from the one who can help and I wonder if she really is a believer.

  • if only my husband would have known and embraced this truth!! this is the message that every family needs to embrace.. men being men.. powerfu!! chasing things that i could give up.. wow..

  • Glory to God :D

    Jesus restores

    I love the song by the way hehe :D

    God Bless

  • @Jiballin do you have proof of this? Something that would stand up to independent verification?

  • @Jiballin do you have proof of this "Jesus restores" claim? Something that would stand up to independent verification?

  • @primeq Yes I do He restores me every time I fall. I know him and he knows me, I see the effect of his love and his mercy in my life daily.

    Did you not Hear Matt? He said himself he went to the Lord in prayer. Accept it or not, it's faith.

  • @Jiballin Thumbs Up :)

  • @primeq It's called having faith. If you don't have any, get outta here!!

  • Comment removed

  • Great example!

  • I know everyone has marriage problems and u are no exception to this struggle, but I will pray for you on this issue because many without God's help will not survive. I love Telecast they are soo good.

  • I am sooooooo in love with this song! So convicting! Amen to Matt's story with and fight for his wife. That's how you do it!

  • I found this song by accident. I think God led me to find it. My husband and I have really been struggling in our marriage for awhile. We have been married 15 years. I hope this song helps us like it has helped you Matt and your wife. Thank you so much for sharing this! God bless you.

  • Very powerful song.

  • Nice story!

  • This song is definitely a family favorite, our family song if you will. It plays often in our home, vehicles & in my mind. It makes me cry to think of how many times I've let down God and my wonderful family. 

  • Thank you Matt and Sarah for sharing this amazing testimonies of your life as a husband and wife. It truly blessed us all. May God continue to bless your family.

  • I'm so glad as a couple they found a way to resolve their conflict and ask God for help. My husband and I go through the same thing all the time and sometimes. It really takes both people in the marriage to realize it's not about you but it's about the other person. My focus should be him and his focus should be me. I love how this song explains all that and more!

  • I love how their testimony is OPEN for all to hear and be SAVED and HEALED!!

    It's so easy to walk away and quit, but they didn't ...they fought for their marriage! Bless God!

  • @ Thepiebuddy: Amen! (:

  • I thank God that you made this song! God ordained marriage and He honors those who keep trying! We almost got divorced BUT we fought too. I luv my husband now MORE THAN EVER!

  • Comment removed

  • there are many other verses and scriptures in the Bible which make reference to the husband being the leader of the family. It's a responsibility given to him by God and one which the husband must answer to. However, it does not make his wife less valuable than he because he must also lead in love as Christ to the church and be humble and submissive to God. Like I said many more scriptures out there in the Bible. God bless you.

  • To blueeye 233: It is not God does not lead the wife, I'm very sure that He is her ultimate Leader. I am actually going through pre-marital counselling classes right now and we just went over a "Roles" class. In the class it describes the roles of husband wife and children. The husband's role is the headship/leader of the family just as Jesus the headship/leader of the Church. If you read Ephesians 5:22-33, it calls for the husbands to protect, love sacrificially, and as his own body his wife.

  • Awesome example, great song.

  • this is so beautiful

  • I love how she said divorce wasn't an option. Mark 10:5-12 beautiful story and song!!

  • this song is beautiful and so is the story.

    i love their pictures. my favorite is the one with them holding hands and her belly in the middle:) so adorable.

  • Im kinda confused by this, because the song is saying that the wife needs the husband to lead her when really its just god, or am i missing something here?

  • @blueeye233 the whife needs her husband to lead her as the man of the house, and the husband is praying to the lord to help him lead them

  • <3 I love that song...

  • I totally agree with ThePiebuddy!!

  • Thank you Matt for hearing these words and allowing God to use you to teach us how to become the man God created us to be.I had to go through two divorces and after 4 kids (3 Beautiful girls) i still didnt have a clue .It wasnt until God saved me and set me in place where he could teach me how precious a woman really is and how to see it was not about me.Wow. It has been four years and i am praying your song was my graduation song. If men could get revelation of this it would change your life..

  • My mom was blessed by this song at the OC Harvest this year. She can not really understand english but once I translated she loved it!!!

  • Thanks Matt and your wife for sharing this. I love this song

  • God bless you, Matt! God be with you!!!

  • Hey Matt, You get it. A godly man provides for his family by receiving all his provision from God, his Father. You're video here is a wonderful example to the rest of us Christ-following husband's and dads. Your marriage issues directly parallel mine, and I feel are for the most part, universal. Conflict resolution is key, and something my wife of 25 years and I are still struggling to learn, practice, endure, value. Way to go on posting such an insightful, vulnerable, inspiring video. Blessings

  • wow i just love this song and the reason behind it

  • awww so cute!!

  • What an amazing testimony!! Thank you so much for posting it because you guys made me realize how I should set my standards for my future husband and marriage!! Its so important to not give up so easily these days as the world tells you to! You fight the good fight because God never gives up on you!! so, please don't give up either!

  • This song is beautiful. It's real and touching. Many blessing towards you and your family. Keep letting the Lord use you!! =)

  • I want to be this way. Help me please Lord!

  • Great Message!

  • i just heard this song for the first time and it reminded me of me and my family. I'm so busy with going to school and work it's so easy to not be the husband and father i need to be. This story touched my heart and i can't tell you how hearing this song has helped me, thank god so much for this beautiful song.

  • Hey thank you for posting this video!!

GOD B U

  • Thank you both for posting this. As a musician and vocalist (but more of a guitarist) it's the music that brought me in. I'm so thankful for the style, the simple complexity of your band's music that sends a message that superceeds the music.

    I hope you know Matt, and your band/group influences, encourages and uplifts men out there striving in their walk with the Lord.

    Sarah, thank you for being an encouraging, honest example for women and a wife.

    Thank you both, and your band.

  • We did a human video to this song on Father's Day. It really ministered to the men of the congregation! I posted it on YouTube.

  • Praise God!!! YES! Matt you're right on track!!! May many men of God follow your lead! I love the lyrics to this song. I love that God is SO able to help!!! I heard your testimony on K-Love radio a month ago, and as it has this time, it really blessed me to hear it! Thanks for sharing your testimony! Praise God!!!
