One of my favorite things about Maine is the rocks on the coast. When I hike along them, I'm reminded of how small I really am. If a huge wave came up and smashed against those rocks, I would be powerless to fight against them.
A song that I really like by Tenth Avenue North has a sone called Lovesick. One of the lines in it is, "I'm caught in Your current but I'm sinking, drowning peacefully."
I never understood that. Until now. Following God is a lot like allowing those waves to crash down over you. We are powerless to fight against Him and His power. But when we just face that fact, our lives will find peace in Him rather than violence in this world.
I'm still trying to figure this whole God thing out. And i think I always will be trying to figure it out. One thing I have always known is to let God have the power, because I can't do it on my own. I need to learn that every day, but at least I'm learning.
