Erinnicole's Prayer: Delirious?'s "Gravity"

Gravity's pulling me, but heaven is calling me

this is how I have been feeling lately - the the world (gravity) is all pulling me one way and that God (heaven) is pulling the other. I feel like nothing can be simple because it feels, in my melodramatic teenage mind, that life is the way of the world or the way of God. But the way of God can become the way of the world, if we call upon God's help. Or at least, it can successfully become the way of the world we create for ourselves. That is how I want to live my life. Sometimes, though, I feel weak and I don't feel like constantly preaching on why certain things are bad. I'd rather let the little stuff go - like harmless insults. It is much easier to blow them off and keep my friends than it is to stand up and potentially lose them or a part of them. Granted, no one said that easy would be right. My prayer is that I will aquire the strength to pull away from what the world seems to be pulling me to. Also that I can recognize more simply the ones whom God has given me that are headed in the same direction that I am.
