Katie's prayer: Kutless' "All Alone"

I know that, that you blame me for all that you go through
It could be so different if you would just let it go

Life is not always what you want, sometimes it's hard to bear
I'd be with you and help you in all that you go through
I love you, let me change your heart by coming in

Last night during night prayer God and I re-visted a popular topic. The one where I disagree with what He's doing with my life. One of the psalms said it perfectly

Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord,
Lord, hear my voice!
O let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my pleading.

So often I'm looking at the things in my life that I don't like, and I blame God. "Well things aren't going how I want them to, but it's obviously how God wants them to go, so it's His fault things aren't how I want them to be." Twice in this song, that problem I have is addressed.

It could be so different if you'd just let go. Nailed it! Part of my problem. The things that aren't going my way are the same things I have such a hard time letting go and letting God. You know, it could be different if I let God do what He wants.

Life is not always what you want. I'd be with you and help you. I love you. It's true that some things are not going to go the way I want. But does that really matter? No matter how my life is going, how I think my life is going, God is always there and always loving me. Isn't that all that really matters?
