Opening the Vent

You know those days when you feel like you're being pulled a thousand different directions and you have close to a million things to do? Well that's how this whole week has been for me. I have a ton of stuff to do for school, not to mention study for finals and work on projects to help pay for my mission trip this summer. I am more stressed than I have been in a long time so what do I do? I go write. Why? For the sake of sanity I guess. Because when everything else seems to be crashing down on top of me all at once, I know that I can always find who I am and be reminded of who I belong to just by writing out a few words. I'm listening to Glorious Day by Casting Crowns right now, and suddenly it all makes sense again. Back into perspective my life has fallen. The blinders have been removed and I can see what really matters: Jesus loves me more than I can even begin to comprehend and he is with me through every trial I may face. Through the mounds of homework stuffed in my backpack, through the disappointment threatening to crush me, through missing people I love, through not being sure of what is right, he is there. I can turn to him always. That's really all I have to say today.

"Word of God speak

Would you pour down like rain

Washing my eyes to see

Your majesty

To be still and know

That you're in this place

Please let me stay and rest

In you holiness...Word of God speak"
