For Today

For Today is a Christian metal band that is extremely Godly and don't try to cover that up. Their lyrics are very direct and express Gods love. They are very dedicated to be known for their love for God and they aren't afraid. I love them for that reason, if you are gonna stand for something do it and don't change for fame. This band is true and they are real and it is so amazing to see a band who doesn't make themselves who they think people would want them to be, they are who they are because they love God. I went to their concert last week and it was such a beautiful thing that they got up there and spoke about God to all the people in that audience that have not been saved and who are going through hard times. This band is here for a reason and they are here to help open the eyes of those who are so blind to God's love and possibly save a life. There is no doubt that this band will help people who are helpless. Since they sing about God in such a powerful way with the genera they are in they attract an audience who can really benefit from the truth in their lyrics. The Devil Wears Prada was also playing at the show but they didn't have as much to say as For Today did. For Today went all out and said more than just God bless. I love TDWP too but I would have loved it so much more if they went all out like For Today did. I was standing in the second row and as they were talking about Jesus and saying "you will not leave here the same way you came" a girl of a couple standing in front of me (who I was trying to get in front of like the whole show but she kept pushing me back) took her hand and put it on her boyfriends head and said "you are healed", she was making a joke out of it and it really upset me a lot. It also made me upset because if you don't like this band then let me in front of you because I do! Not only did this make me upset but it also gave me more reason to try to change the minds of people like that. To see that opened my eyes to realize how maybe 80% of the people there thought of it as a joke too and for them to be at a concert with this band made them just one step closer to knowing Gods love. I hope this band never stops doing what they are, they are an inspiration to many Christian bands. For Today is a blessing to the music industry.
