I just used Shazam to discover Lessons Learned by Carrie Underwood. http://shz.am/t42933233

Faith
There is a song i REALLY love called "Keepin' me guessin'" by Francesca Battistelli (Attached here ). It inspired this post where i talk about "knowing" where God is leading me (and then realizing i DONT and He just wants me to realize that HE has it and i don't need to "figure it out")
It's fun to be at this place with God
where He like to keep me on my toes
I think i know which way we are heading,
and i may not like it, but then it goes
Right when i get used to the new normal,
thinking I'll be alright, and He's got a plan,
He turns the tables around again, and i get more
more than i thought i could ask from His hand
But He just shows me He's in control, not me
and now i know that is the very best place
the best place, forever, to be.
So as the time keeps passing on so fast
i wonder if i will ever learn
that i cannot outthink God, not even based on past
Though for His wisdom i will yearn.
It's a great place to be, really
to know that the God of the universe knows better than me.
To know that i don't always know how it turns out
and He can turn into a smile my pout.
It's a faith journey i travel along
and my assumptions may be right or wrong,
but in the end i must trust God's got a plan
that i don't need to over-think and understand
Faith isn't trusting we go where we want,
or even trusting our logical hunt.
Trusting that God has a plan and it is good
and walking in it the way we should.
that's the faith i'm learning these days,
to trust God in ALL His ways.
To know that what i see may be wrong
and i am never too far gone.

Insecurities
Insecurities. We all have them. It's just to what extent, how many,and how good we are at hiding them that differs from person to person. In our insecurity, we run from something and to something. We run away from what is making us insecure and to something that gives us security. For some, it is drugs, alcohol or cigarettes. For others it's sex. For others it's food. For others it's friends or family or gossip or internet or sports... For me, I am CHOOSING to let my God and Savior be my "go-to guy." For me, it is not about going to a false sense of security. Oh no. From now on I am running straight into the Everlasting Arms, the only Security that is Truth. So long insecurity, I got my Rock to cling to!
