last-minute jitters

"I will run into Your open arms,
to your love that washes away my fears..."
thank god for earworm. this song came into my head as i was feeling afraid, which i am, very, right now. i'm so afraid 'cause it's so near yet so uncertain. it's practically in my grasp and i can almost clutch it but i don't know if it'll evade me in the end or not. kind of hard to tell, considering a lot of my life has seen me losing more than keeping.

i hate being in this position right now. it's just so stressful thinking about it. i should know better, right, having gone through thunder and hail and whatnot, that His faithfulness prevails and He knows the future is good for me, even if i don't. and the times i did lose, i gained something else each time in return, although totally different from what i'd expected.

but at the end of the day, jesus, thy will be done. i will close my eyes, take a deep breath and just trust that whatever happens, You want the best for me and will choose it to be so.

All I'm Living For
by PLANETSHAKERS

Here I am waiting for You,
Here I am reaching out to You,
I will run into Your arms again,
And I’m longing for Your touch once again,

Take my life, everything, All I am,
An offering for you,
Cause you’re all I’m living for

Here I am waiting on You,
Here I am reaching out for You,
I will run into Your arms again,
And I’m longing for Your touch once again,

Take my life, everything
All I am
An offering for you
Cause you’re all I’m living for

Take my heart, all of me
I’m laying it down
To worship You my God
Cause You’re all I’m living for

I will run into Your open arms,
To your love that washes away my fears
I am found, deep in this mystery,
Cause You’re all I’m living for

Take my life, everything
All I am
An offering for you
Cause you’re all I’m living for

Take my heart, all of me
I’m laying it down
To worship You my God
Cause You’re all I’m living for

Cause You’re all,
You’re All I’m living for,
Jesus You’re all,
All I’m living for

Jesus You’re all,
All I’m living for
Jesus You’re all,
All I’m living for
Jesus You’re all,
All I’m living for
