Keeping me guessing . . .

If you know me, and you should if you are reading this, you know that "blogging" is not my thing. However, thanks to my dear friend Mary Lawrence, I'm giving it a try. For the past few months I've been freaking out about growing up, making decisions, and life in general. Today, I discovered a song that has been on my ipod for some time now that I never listened to. The title is, you guessed it, "Keeping Me Guessing," by Francesca Battistelli, an awesome Christian singer I found while interning in Atlanta. These are a few of the lyrics to the song.

Slow me down, show me around
I wanna see the world that I’ve been without
I am here and now the future is out of my hands
I trust in you and how you move
I won’t forget that patience is a virtue
You’re teaching me to hang on tight

Cause I don’t know how the story ends
But I’ll be alright cause you own it
And I don’t know where the highway bends
But I’m doin just fine
Cause your in control
Even when I don’t know
Where my life’s gonna go
You’re keeping me guessing

Seasons come and seasons go
But you decide

This song really hit home because I love to be in control. I've struggled lately with being patient, and letting God take control of my life. I am the best at telling you that everything works out in the end, but I often have trouble letting my own life work itself out. I am not the one in control of my life, and if I was, I would hate to see how it worked out. Knowing that God has a plan for my life, and everything that is happening is happening for a reason, brings peace to my mind and joy to my life. I love it when God sends little reminders of His presence in our lives, and this song was such a blessing to me. I hope that you will listen to it, and let Him be in control of your life. It is an awesome feelings. So, if you ride in my car at all, plan to listen to this song a few times :)
