I Needed That...

So, today is another blah day - I'm feeling kind of down and can't quite put my finger on it. For now, I'll blame it on the cloudy skies and cooler weather (which is fabulous at the same time). I went back and read some things that I've written and it is amazing how my days can fluctuate so much. Up one day, down another. I am so thankful that God is constant! I'm embarrassed that I am not so much.

I'm listening to the song Empty and Beautiful and didn't know yesterday when I found it, how much I'd need to hear it today. So, today I'm letting God fight the fight in me and finish the race because somehow I just can't do it. (Long sigh) What better news is there than knowing someone will carry you when you just aren't up to carrying yourself. Thanks God.

Empty & Beautiful

I came across this song, Empty & Beautiful by Matt Maher. The chorus says this:

You fought the fight in me.
You chased me down and finished the race.
I was blind but now I see.
Jesus, You kept the faith in me.

Isn't great to know that even when we mess up, Jesus is keeping faith in us? How reassuring that we don't have to be perfect!
