Have you ever had one of those days where your head is so full and people keeping keep talking and you want them to stop them because you can't contain any more information or your heart can't take any more emotion?
I have had a week like that! Sometimes I have felt like I can't breathe and I just need someone to give me more oxygen!
Anyone who knows me knows I really don't like roller coasters as I hurt my head really bad on one!
Well this week has felt like an emotional roller coaster!
We have had to make big decisions as a family, I thought I had lost two years of work in my iPad, finances have caused us stress, a loved one has died, and I have to watch my loved one start the grieving process. I wanted to scream "Stop the world I want to get off!,"
My mantra 'Don't let ANYTHING get bigger that GOD' has been sorely tasted and I know I have taken my eyes of HIM.
The words of this song by Holly Starr and the prayers of my dear friends have given me spiritual oxygen!
The noise is overwhelming and taking control
I've let my fear consume me, it won't let go
Where has my faith been hiding? I'd like to know
I've come to this conclusion in search of hope
Lord, I really need to stop right now
Stop now and focus on You
Even with the chaos all around
I'll stop now and focus on You
Confusion all around me, my head's a mess
I want to close my eyes but can't seem to rest
Your words help me remember, I can't forget
Your peace is always faithful and has no end
Why do I feel so blind? I'm gonna stop this time
And surrender, and surrender to You
Lord, I really need to stop right now
Stop now and focus on You
Even with the chaos all around
I'll stop now and focus on You
The only place I have found peace is in prayer!
Just to encourage anyone who is reading this stop and refocus.xx
