the concert

the concert was really good! we had the chance to hear some new artists, our worship pastor stefan, and of course elizabeth. here's one of her songs that really touched me, Finally Feel Like Living:

I heard somebody say,
"The worst decision you can make
is to make no decision."
And I think they may be right,
I'm still trying to decide.
Oh this feels like a collision
Cause what if I regret some choice along the way
What if failure finally catches me

If I want to fly
I'm gonna have to say goodbye
And start a brand new way of life
That finally feels like living
And I've got to try
Stop holding on to all these lies
I'm tired of wasting all this time
I finally feel like living

I could wait until I know,
Just what to do and where to go
But I might be here forever
I could surrender to my fears,
Like I've done for all these years
And never know if it gets better
There's a chance that I might miss these old familiar walls
And these chains I couldn't even see

Oh I thought I was
But I wasn't living
I'm stepping out
Into a new beginning

ive been worried about my future after law school. its my third year and i told my mentor yesterday that i feel "stuck." im trying to keep all my options open so that i don't limit myself, but at the same time since im not persistently chasing after something i feel "stuck." but last nite at the concert i was pleasantly reminded that no matter how big your problems are, no matter how deep your pain is, no matter how uncertain the future may be, when your eyes are focused on God, everything else around you seems so insignificant compared to the glory of Jesus.

sometimes the worst decision IS not making any decision at all. but i know that wherever God leads me after im done, i'll go. be it across the country, i'll follow wherever He wants me to go...im making the decision to trust God.
