Song meaning of Kind by Cory Asbury

Ah, "Kind" by Cory Asbury, a heartfelt exploration of life's challenges and the eternal question: why bad things happen to good people. But fear not, my friend, for Cory dives deep into the mind-boggling concept of divine selection and spiritual healing. He ponders about marriages gone awry, the painful loss of babies, and the ever-elusive nature of rehab success. And amidst all these struggles, he can't help but wonder if the Big Guy Upstairs is real and how He chooses who to heal and who to leave hanging. Oh, the eternal mystery! But fear not, for Cory has tried it all. He's attempted to escape from Jesus, even started some holy wars, because who doesn't enjoy a little celestial conflict now and then, right? He's tried both patience and impatience, waiting and kicking down doors, but alas, no luck. Frustration has led him to raise his fist to the sky and hurl some colorful expletives towards heaven. But guess what? Despite all the sass, sass, sass, all Jesus has ever been is kind. Yeah, you heard it right! And Cory, being the self-reflective soul he is, acknowledges his fair share of bridge-burning expertise. He's seen the aftermath in his rearview mirror, understanding the crooked things he's done. Forgiveness is dished out by the Almighty, but truly forgiving oneself? Now, that's a tough nut to crack. He can't help but think that maybe, just maybe, amazing grace is reserved for everybody else and not him. But wait, there's a twist! When he gazes upon that holy crucifix, he realizes that kindness comes at a cost, and it's the darkest day in history. Who knew kindness had such a dramatic backstory? So in the end, my dear friend, as Cory proclaims with all the lyrical prowess he possesses, he's tried, he's struggled, but through it all, Jesus has remained kind. Such a heartwarming tale! So remember, folks, in the game of life, sometimes we get knocked down, sometimes we're left with burning bridges, and sometimes we curse the divine realm with a raised fist. But hey, all you need is a dash of kindness, even from the most enigmatic of celestial beings. Stay sassy, my friend!
