Megan's prayer: Jars of Clay's "Crazy Love"

Today’s song holds the words I wish I could say:

"Tonight I’m going to break away."

As wonderful as my life is, there are certain things that I want to just break away from. I want to break away from the stress that I constantly experience. I want to break away from the demands and the expectations that I have been feeling. But most of all, I want to break away from the monotony of life and just be consumed in God’s love and have no other cares in the world.

I want to live the words “Tonight I’m going to break away” but instead I’ll end up saying “Tonight I wish I could break away.”

There is some fear inside of me that doesn’t allow me to take this leap of faith. I’m so worried that if I do jump, no one will be there to catch me. I want to be able to break away, but I’m too scared that I will just screw up or make a mistake. I want to give myself fully to God, but something inside of me holds me back.

Hopefully someday I can find the courage to break away.
