Take me to that place Lord!

This song has pulled at my heart strings since the first day that I heard it in church one sunday. It has become my prayer, and after a really tough day (or couple of weeks I should say), lets me know that God is here with me even through the messy stuff.

Take me to that place, Lord, to that secret place  where I can be with You! You can make me like You.

Today I was really getting frustrated with all the statistics homework that I have to get done (and hardly understand) as well as study for my first  test tomorrow and start memorizing all, and I do mean ALL, of the bones in the body for my human anatomy class. I kept feeling so unintelligent and wanted to just give up and turn it in as is. I gave myself some time and started to try again later. And you know what? I sat down and Prayed right before I started again and I turned on my 'God Time' playlist and all of a sudden I'm flying through these questions like there was no tomorrow. Little things like this reassure me that God is by my side waiting for me to turn to him. It's easy as making cereal. I know that sometimes, though, we just see the bad in everything and are too proud to give in to the little voice saying "I'm right here. All you need to do is ask." I LOVE the LORD!!! GOD is good. All the time. (Even when I don't think so ;) )

I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me...

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me...can't I? Then why do I feel like it's absolutely impossible to do everything at this moment? I know...I know who it is trying to get me to feel this frustration and doubt...and I'm trying my hardest not to let him win. It is so unforgivably hard right now. I keep questioning my future, my intentions, my abilities, and my strengths. The devil is highlighting my weaknesses and putting them on a pedestal for me to look at constantly and it is really getting me down in the dumps. I understand what I must do...easier said than done, though. I need to turn my face towards my strength and ask for his help, because without him how will I get anything done? My emotions are spun out, my stress levels are high, my brain is at full capacity and my memory is taking a vacation. Lord, help me! Because right now...I am so lost...I don't know what to do with myself. I feel like a failure and like I will never achieve the goals I have set for myself. There it is. I set for myself. I. Not God. Maybe this is God telling me that this is not what he has planned for me. I certainly need to pray about it. If not, then I will be going in circles. I will be without a purpose. Well, not without a purpose, because my purpose will always be there waiting for me to continue on, but I will not be following my purpose. *SIGH* I'm sorry for such a confusing post. I should have wrote this in my journal...but I felt the need to put it on my blog. I don't know why. I haven't even been posting for awhile. It's so hard to remember to post for me. Like I said...my memory is on vacation. And to think I was so excited for school to start...

Sorry.



Cheers,
