The Song on my Radio

I've been playing Anna Nalick's "Wreck of the Day" CD in my car stereo. The chorus keeps drawing me back. So here you are -- a piece of my heart tonight:

...you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, girl.
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe... just breathe...

I think this is returning to the lesson I am learning about being and not doing. I am praying a lot lately about the woman I hope to be, instead of the stuff I don't want to do. I want to be a woman who chooses to love and give to others, not someone who acts those things out from a sense of duty. I want love and service to pour from the overflow of my heart.

Right now, I need to stop and breathe. I can't rewind and I can't change my circumstances. I don't want to rush through this time and ignore the lessons and changes that God has for me. I want to stop and listen. Stop and remember. Stop and just be here. ---- And then I want to move where He wants me to go.
