Odd Concept...

I realize that this may be an odd concept to some, but I love when my God romances me. It's such a long story, but these last few days... nothing has seemed to make much sense. I think that's the way it's supposed  to be sometimes. I've just given one of my biggest passions to God and let him do with it as he pleases. I want to say that I trust him completely, but sometimes it's so hard to just close my eyes and let him guide my path. He says he is a lamp unto my feet in the Psalms. I just hate not seeing where I'm going in the long run! But I trust that he will be that lamp. And he will guide my every step. Back to the mushy gushy... I listen to love songs sometimes... Ok, a lot of the time... but this one has a new meaning to me now... From God's point of view... He just wants to hold me in his arms. Some parts may be awkward, but it makes sense to me.

"When you came to me with your bad dreams and your fears
It was easy to see you'd been crying
Seems like everywhere you turn catastrophe it reigns
But who really profits from the dying
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever

When you kissed my lips with my mouth so full of questions
My worried mind that you quiet
Place your hands on my face
Close my eyes and say
That love is a poor man's food
Don't prophesize
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever
And I could hold you in my arms
I could hold you forever

So now we see how it is
This fist begets the spear
Weapons of war
Symptoms of madness
Don't let your eyes refuse to see
Don't let your ears refuse to hear
Or you ain't never going to shake this sense of sadness
I could hold you in my arms
I could hold on forever
And I could hold you in my arms
I could hold on forever"

Thank you Jesus for Ray Lamontagne and this beautiful song that has such a new meaning to me now. Thank you for holding me in your arms.

-Much Love-
