Ya know how sometimes you just realize things...well this is where my "realizations" are gonna go. :)

~~Revelations thru Music~~
Alot of things "hit me" through music. Music is one of God's best tools.

Is He not strong enough?
Is He not pure enough?
To break me, pour me out, and start again
Is He not brave enough?
To take one chance on me
Please can I have one chance to start again?

When i first heard this song...I kinda broke down...God does want me...he doesn't need me, but he wants me anyway...
Again, my human concept of God does him no justice. He is so much bigger than i can ever imagine. He can take me (all of me) and make me a vessel for Him. Granted, the process (aka life) will not necessarily be pleasant but I will be better for it in the end. And i have to learn to let Him take the "helm" because he is a more experienced "Captain". (I'm such a dork with my "analogies")
 
He took my life into his hands and it turned it all around
In my most desperate circumstance
It's there I've finally found

That You are strong enough
That You are pure enough
To break me, pour me out and start again
That You are brave enough
To take one chance on me
Oh Thank You for my chance to start again
 
*Lyrics taken from Stacie Orrico's "Strong Enough"

Today I was reading one of my favorite verses...Matt. 11:28-30
 
28"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
 
And I realized...that this is for me...I don't have to face all this everyday crap by myself...God has got my back and He won't let the "wolves" get me. I looked up burden and weary in the Dictionary (sometimes i feel the need to be official) and here's what got:
 
Burden:
a. Something that is emotionally difficult to bear.
b. A source of great worry or stress; weight:
 
Weary:
a. Physically or mentally fatigued.
 
 
So when something is stressing me out or I'm feeling suffocated by life and the people in my life...I just gotta surrender to God and He promises to help me out if i let Him. Surrendering is hard tho...I guess then we just have to pray and ask for strength to let it go.
