Down again, this world always finds a way to pull me in. Turning in circles so I end up back where I tried to begin.
I don't know what you are trying to teach me because I'm so blinded by my sin that you're finding it hard to even reach me.
So I'll lift my hands up to you and pray, I'll close my eyes and let you lead the way. I know your close so I'll let it all go to start brand new, then I'll fall back into you.
If I leave it all in your hands instead of trying to make my own plans then I know that everything will end up like it should. Through you all my suffering and pain can work for your good. I turn my back on the world and look up to your son, I won't lose hope because my life is ever changing until time on earth is done.
You see me even when I can't see myself, and you know me even when I don't know myself. I know Lord that when I feel like giving up all I have to do is fall back into you.

A couple quotes from Sunday's Sermon in Woodland, Washington:
"Our tomorrows are never what our fears presume them to be!"
"Today is the tomorrow I worried about yesterday and all is well!"
The sermon was about our greatest struggle always ending up being when we struggle with God.
Letting go and letting God work in (and through) us is our struggle. "We" always get in the way of what He wants to do in (and through) us!!!!

I think that we all New Christians,and old Have struggles. I myself struggle everyday as I am sure that we all do. Just keep your faith in God And, "LET it all go". Have all the trust you may have in him. Always remember that God loves you all the time and, in every way.
