It's a painful experience to go through divorce/separation. Often, we'd rather not have it happen. In certain societies, it comes with other factors like alimony or child support, not to mention the devastating heartbreak that would often follow and an excruciating process of healing.
There's however a different kind of separation I'm talking about in the music. It's separation from the world in order to follow Christ Jesus. He's a sure partner that never thinks of divorcing us or letting us suffer heartbreak. Only, we frail humans have to try 'by His power' to keep committed.
Like every divorce/separation, there's usually need for readaptation and healing. When we follow Christ, we ought to do so not just by word of mouth but by action. We cannot say we've divorced the world and still hang out with the world on a regular basis. We'd have to adapt by action which will birth strength and consistency. We have to communicate with the new Love in order to know Him more and more and love Him more. This is done by reading holy scripture and meditating on His ways so as to know Him better. He is God, He is Love Himself.
In our relationship with the world, we begot vice, emptiness, purposelessness and despair. In our marriage to Christ, we will beget life and hope, sense of fullness and love, power to do things we never thought we could.
Let us enter into this relationship in which we could take the Love for granted. Isn't it great to be sure that no matter what we do, if we don't choose separation, our Partner is never going to consider breaking up? He always forgives. May we Love such a Partner and never hurt such a Sacred Heart.
I hope you enjoy your time here!
Lyrics
I've got my mind made up and I won't turn back
Because I want to see my Jesus someday
I've got my mind made up and I won't turn back
Because I want to see my Jesus someday
I've got my mind made up and I won't turn back
Because I want to see my Jesus someday
I've got my mind made up and I won't turn back
Because I want to see my Jesus someday
Goodbye world, I stay no longer with you
Goodbye pleasures of sin, I stay no longer with you
I've made up my mind to go God's way the rest of my life
I've made up my mind to go God's way the rest of my life
Goodbye world, I stay no longer with you
Goodbye pleasures of sin, I stay no longer with you
I've made up my mind to go God's way the rest of my life
I've made up my mind to go God's way the rest of my life

ESPANOL
Es una experiencia dolorosa pasar por el divorcio/separación. A menudo, preferimos que no suceda. En ciertas sociedades, viene con otros factores como la pensión alimenticia o la manutención de los hijos, sin mencionar la devastadora angustia que a menudo seguiría y un proceso insoportable de curación. Sin embargo, hay un tipo diferente de separación de la que estoy hablando en la música. Es la separación del mundo para seguir a Cristo Jesús. Es un socio seguro que nunca piensa en divorciarnos o dejarnos sufrir desamor. Solo que los humanos frágiles tenemos que intentar 'por su poder' para mantenernos comprometidos.
Como todo divorcio/separación, por lo general hay necesidad de readaptación y curación. Cuando seguimos a Cristo, debemos hacerlo no solo de boca en boca, sino de acción. No podemos decir que nos hemos divorciado del mundo y que aún nos quedamos con el mundo de forma regular. Tendríamos que adaptarnos por la acción que hará nacer la fuerza y la consistencia. Tenemos que comunicarnos con el nuevo amor para conocerlo más y más y amarlo más. Esto se hace leyendo las Sagradas Escrituras y meditando sobre Sus caminos para conocerlo mejor. Él es Dios, Él mismo es Amarse. En nuestra relación con el mundo, engendramos vicio, vacío, falta de propósito y desesperación. En nuestro matrimonio con Cristo, engendraremos vida y esperanza, sentido de plenitud y amor, poder para hacer cosas que nunca pensamos que podíamos.
Entremos en esta relación en la que podríamos dar por sentado el amor. ¿No es genial estar seguro de que no importa lo que hagamos, si no elegimos la separación, nuestra pareja nunca considerará romper? Siempre perdona. Que amemos a tal pareja y nunca lastimemos a un corazón tan sagrado. ¡Espero que disfrutes tu tiempo aquí!

I've got my mind made up and I won't turn back
Because I want to see my Jesus someday
I've got my mind made up and I won't turn back
Because I want to see my Jesus someday
I've got my mind made up and I won't turn back
Because I want to see my Jesus someday
I've got my mind made up and I won't turn back
Because I want to see my Jesus someday
Goodbye world, I stay no longer with you
Goodbye pleasures of sin, I stay no longer with you
I've made up my mind to go God's way the rest of my life
I've made up my mind to go God's way the rest of my life
Goodbye world, I stay no longer with you
Goodbye pleasures of sin, I stay no longer with you
I've made up my mind to go God's way the rest of my life
I've made up my mind to go God's way the rest of my life
