i'm so sick of the stumble i've been caught in.

Yesterday morning every part of her just shut down
Getting out of bed never felt so difficult before
Every step she took led to the wrong direction
And she never made it out her door

Yesterday morning ______ yielded to all she hates
She despised it so much, oh why did she give in
it seems like this battle just can't be won
And she's stuck here alone again

But she says, "I'm so sick of the stumble I've been caught it."
"I'm so tired of the mumble I've described as talk."

Now I guess it's time I lose myself to One who found me here.
(Yesterday Morning lyrics - Matt Wertz)

This song is always one that I can relate to. I always feel like I should put my name in the blank. (it gives a name.. jamie.. but hey. emily fits too). There are so many times that I screw up and have to remember that His Grace Is Sufficient.

There are so many routine actions and talks that we get caught up in. So many meaningless things that just don't make sense. Why don't I walk upright and strong and speak words of love with intention? We are truly caught in this - it's something that is so normal. Let's escape. Do you think it's possible?

It's time to lose myself in Christ. Since He's the one who found me in this despair - in this problem. He didn't find me when I was doing right - or attempting to do right. He found me when I was intentionally doing wrong - disobeying - running away from His name. He surrounded me & showed Me what He had to offer & I can't turn it down - it's such a beautiful offer.

So I will always have these moments - mainly because it is what I struggle with - but I can know that when I do feel like I am having a "yesterday morning" I can stand strong in Christ and the promises He has made to His children. He has a plan for my hope and future.

It is so comforting and makes me want to get out of bed to see what new blessings or lessons He has to show me. It makes me want to stop stumbling and start letting Christ be my foundation to stead my steps. - "Think about the Lord in all you do & He will guide you on the right paths."

How beautiful is the One who found me here.
