Song I heard today which sorta fits my life recently. Thought I would share:
I feel like I've been spending a lot of time trying to build bridges. Build relationships. Build a life. Build...whatever. But I build knowing it's going to fall apart, because it always falls apart, right? Everytime I want something so badly and put myself into it, it crumbles and yes, it does break my heart.
I'm tired of having my heart broken. I'm tired of having everything I touch fall apart. Of having my life in ruins and no one to hold on to.
But maybe that's because I keep trying to build bridges I'm not supposed to be building. I keep trying to make things happen that aren't ready to happen yet. Maybe I just need to sit back and let God build the bridge when He's ready to build it for me. Because when God builds a bridge, it's never crumbles and it never falls. He is a strong tower and mighty refuge. He is the healer of bodies and gives strength to the weak.
But from this point on, I won't keep building bridges...not until I die. I'm done right now. I can't possibly keep doing the things God's meant to do and expect success.
Right now, I'm crying a little bit because Saucy gets a little emotional sometimes. But these are tears of relief and joy. A pressure feels lifted off me. I don't have to build anymore bridges. I won't have to be disappointed when they crumble and fall. I'm just going to let go of it all. All my troubles, all my fears, all my pain...ALL OF IT! Thank-you Jesus for being the ultimate bridge maker.
