By Your Side

Do you ever feel like the world is against you and nothing you do is right or good enough? When it felt like I hit rock bottom, God sent me His truth through a song on my Ipod that for some reason I couldn't skip... now i know though. The song: By Your Side by TENTH AVENUE NORTH. God was speaking to me so loud it was hard to believe that it all wasn't a dream. The lyrics were money and truth. "Why are you trying to earn grace...Let me lift up your face, just don't turn away....Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough...My hands are holding you." I do things but never believe that I do them. For example, I broke down and gave everything I was struggling with to God at youth group last night but when I woke up this morning I felt like He wouldn't accept it or want it. I now realize that this is all the enemies masterpiece. He is feeding me the lies and false feelings and I am accepting them. I am so lucky to have friends that care and check up on me and help me see that my worldly life gets harder the closer I get to God. Now that i have opened my eyes to Gods grace and unconditional love I am going to push through the enemies plans and become stronger. Do you need to become silent and listen for the Lord to speak?
