Thoughts

There you go changing my plans again 
There you go shifting my sands again 
For reasons I don't understand again 
Lately I don't have a clue 

Just when I start liking what I see 
There you go changing my scenery 
I never know where you're taking me 
But I'm trying just to follow you

It's out of my hands 
It's out of my reach 
It's over my head 
And it's out of my league 
There's too many things 
That I don't understand 
So it's into your will 
And it's out of my hands

There you go healing these scars again 
Showing me right where you are again 
I'm helpless, and that's where I start again 
I'm giving it all up to you

Move me, make me 
Choose me, change me 
Send me, shake me 
Find me, remind me 
The past is behind me 
Take it all away 
Take it all from me, I pray

Philippians 4:19
--"My God will use His Wonderful riches in Christ Jesus to give you everything you need."

Necessities

So I was listening to this song today. And it made me think. What do we want, and what do we actually need? What are our necessities? What couldn't you go one day without? God is definitely a necessity, and this song shows it. Here are the lyrics...

Something about Your love
Fills me up like an ocean, Lord
You consume me
Something about Your grace
I can’t explain why You give it to me
It’s a mystery

You’re my necessity
You quench the thirst in me

I don’t know what I’d do
I couldn’t go one day without You
You are like water to me
I can’t live, I can’t breathe
Your love is everything that I need
You are like water to me

I need to take You in
Like oxygen, every second
Just to make it through
Without Your touch
This world would be too much
I depend on You

You’re my necessity

Raining down on me forever
I need You to flood my soul


Just think about that. Don't go ONE DAY without God. We need Him to live. Remember that! Have a great day!

Rescued

I'm new to this whole thing. Bear with me =]

So lately I've been struggling a lot.
There's been so much on my plate,
and it seemed like everything was falling apart.
Could anything else go wrong?
This song is how I was feeling for a while.....


RESCUE ME

I've drifted so far
Can't even see the shore
I've been lost in the waves
But haven't been fighting
I'm sinking fast
Oh is there an end to this
I can't breathe I'm in too deep
But You can save me
I'm crying out to You

I'm drowning in my decisions
And I'm frustrated and I'm disappointed
It's my world You see and I want out

So come and rescue me
I'm here on bended knee
And I'm crying out to You
All I really, really want is to be free
So take my hand here I am
Oh come and free me
So take my hand here I am
Oh come and rescue me


Buttttttttt, this morning, God totally broke me down. I was listening to this song and I started crying. Heres part of it...


Jesus if you're really there,
I need you now cause no one cares
Is anybody even listening

God will never walk out on you
He'll be the Father that you never knew
He loves you, more than words can say
He won't leave you when you need Him the most
His love is unconditional
And you know, you put a smile upon His face


=]

I've realized why I've been the way I was...I was drifting...but the coolest thing about God is that He wants us. And He was trying to break me down so that I could see that. And it worked. I was letting other things occupy my time, and I was definitely stressed with finishing school and IB exams. I tried to do it alone, and figure things out on my own, but God showed me that I cant. I need to trust in Him, and allow Him to guide me. What JJ said a while ago: if you are close with God and stay with Him, He will make your path straight. That is extremely true. We have an awesome God, who desires to have a relationship with us; we must always remember that!!!
