summertime revelations.
today is so beautiful. i'm sitting on our back porch, there are daffodils popping up everywhere, the birds are talkin up in the trees, the sun is shiiiiining, it's 82*, and tenth ave is on inside but it's coming to me through the screen door. today is beautiful. i just got back from 2 1/2 hour bike ride with brit... we went around the block, which out here means like 10 miles. the sun was beautiful, the trees we awesome, the corn fields told me i was home, and a stop at bandi's halfway reassured that.
it's funny to me how the sun and warm weather seem to make life better.
so tenth ave is playing inside, and the song 'let it go' is on repeat. here are some of it's perfect lyrics:
i've been holding on so tight
look at these knuckles
they've gone white
i'm fighting for who i wanna be
i'm just trying to find security
but You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one's who lose control
You say you will be, everything i need
You said if i lose my life it's then i'll find my soul
You say let it go... .
repeat is off now, but tenth ave is still on. 'all i am i want to lay down at your feet...'. i think that is what this season in life has been teaching me... what it means to love God above all- and even what it means to love Him at all. i had no reason to not love him before this sinkhole of a time started, it was just what i did because i dug the lifestyle.
it's such a sweet revelation to get a glimpse of why something bad happens. it's the most solid feeling of hope i know. i may be 'one tear in a drop of rain, one voice in a see a pain, wondering if the Maker of the stars can hear the sound of my breaking heart... one life that's all i am and right now i can barely stand but if You're everything You say You are will You come close and hold my heart?' He has.
God is faithful- that i know. He is my hope, and He will continue to be my song. 'He redeems the years the locusts have eaten...' exodus somewhere... . His love is over, underneath, inside, in between, always. :)
