Katie's prayer: dc Talk's "Consume Me"

Any time, any place,
You invade my space.
I have a very defined personal bubble. When people get to close and invade my bubble, I get very uncomfortable. Sometimes, it's ok (like hugging, shaking or holding hands, etc.) but the majority of the time, you need to back off! Just even thinking about it makes me uncomfortable. Which is why I cringe when I hear the above line. But the singer sings it so upbeat-like. Like he's happy that his space is being invaded. Didn't make sense to me, at all! Until I realized that the 'You' is God.

I'm not sure if I have a bubble with God. My instinct answer told me "No, there's no bubble with God!" But then I thought about it. Thought about all the things I try to deal with on my own, things I won't let God touch cause I'm afraid of what He'll make me do, things I try to hide from Him, I guess I do have a bubble with God. And He is always invading that bubble! Maybe it's time for me to start letting Him.
