:: broken ::

That's the title of the song that's been playing in my head over and over again. It's by Lifehouse, by the way. Their new album is not bad :)

The broken clock is a comfort, it helps me sleep tonight
Maybe it can stop tomorrow from stealing all my time
I am here still waiting though i still have my doubts
I am damaged at best, like You've already figured out

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain is there is healing
In Your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on
I'm barely holdin' on to You

The broken locks were a warning you got inside my head
I tried my best to be guarded, I'm an open book instead
I still see Your reflection inside of my eyes
That are looking for a purpose, they're still looking for life

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
with a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain is there is healing
In Your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on
I'm barely holdin' on to You

I'm handin' on another day
Just to see what You will throw my way
And I'm hanging on to the words You say
You said that I will be ok

The broken lights on the freeway left me here alone
I may have lost my way now, haven't forgotten my way home.

Was really shaken up by a few things that happened today. Things just didn't go my way and i guessed part of me wondered why not. Part of me asked, "Lord, why didn't You come through for me?" Some things are just easier said than done. I *will* pull through. It sucks feeling restricted in the things you want to do, despite knowing that this is only for a season. Like i said, easier said than done.

Things happen for a reason anyway. And maybe, just maybe, or actually, i KNOW, Lord, You've got better things in store for me. I'm hanging on to the words You say.

C'mon, Lord. Don't leave me stuck here.

And You say, "He who heeds the word wisely will find good, and whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he." - Proverbs 16:20

Or in this case...

...happy is she.
