Ok...so I was listening to Noel on my computer. It was his Easter message titled "Shattered" ...and again there I am feeling like there is more for my life...that God needs to use me more and am I letting him do it?
...so I listened to another one of Noel's messages "Community"....again...same feeling. It is like the lyrics of one of my favorite Switchfoot songs....which Noel used in his sermon of course. I want to live for God alone...not for myself...or by myself.
MEANT TO LIVE
Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bid for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly
[Chorus]
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken
[Chorus]
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life,
yeah,
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live
It is interesting everytime I hear this song I hear God telling me to live...for him...to die to myself and live for him.

Wow...I guess...I didn't realize I sounded so blah. ;o)
Thanks for pointing it out. :o)
Also I am glad that no Whales have tried eating me lately too...hahaha.
Thank you Mike for that insight. You are absolutely right. That is kind of what I was struggling with...the fear of not living right...instead of just living.
