This morning is a "soft" day - I like to call it that instead of "gray." I slept in a bit and didn't get to do my bike ride to watch the sunrise, but I feel very peaceful and at ease anyway. I didn't think the time change would throw me off since I wake up naturally before dawn, but it is, because I go to bed later following the clock instead of my natural rhythms.
There's a song that I've been listening to that's going through my head a lot. It has a great message for people who are aching to make that leap of faith into God's arms. It's called "The Motions" by Matthew West and it goes:
This might hurt, it's not safe,
But I know I've got to make a change~
I don't care if I break, least I'll be feeling something~
Just OK's not enough, help me fight through
The nothingness of this life...
I don't want to go through the motions,
I don't want to spend one more day,
Without your all-consuming passion inside of me~
I don't want to spend my whole life asking~
What if I had given everything?
Instead of going through the motions...
Take me all the way... Take me all the way...
That's just the first stanza and the chorus. Go listen to it on YouTube, it will help to open your heart. Then come back and tell me how you feel, and if I can help you open your heart the rest of the way, I will...
