Preach Through My Lyrics

I've always had a complicated relationship with God. One minute is like I'm all joyful, full of faith, and ready to tackle this world with everything I have. The next it's like He is so far, I can't seem to reach Him and its like I have to beg him to come to me.

This season is becoming exhausting, right? When Covid-19 was officially declared a pandemic and nations started going on lock-down, a good number of us figured it would be gone after a month or two at most. The idea of staying home didn't sound so bad- especially for those who barely get a break from work. Learners being sent home also wasn't an issue- after all, it's only for a short while, no? Now it's been months down the line and life isn't back to what it used to be yet. For some, one moment it looks like we're headed back to normalcy then the next we have to go back into hiding.

We all care. Most of us like to say we do not really care what anyone thinks about us but truth is that deep down we really do. It's just that some of us have slowly been sucked into approval addiction while some have gradually realized that it really shouldn't matter that much so we try not to let others' opinions sway us. All the same, even those of us who claim not to care actually want everyone to believe that we are unmoved by their opinions so really, it's a big deal. 123rf.com They are the best and the worst you've created Loving and hating and opinionated Loners in basements and those congregated Deliver me...

Before I even say what I want to say, if you have not heard

The best way to give up choice is thinking you don't have it. The best way to give up your power is thinking you don't have it.  Sadly,
