More "Sun"-sational stuff....

Its power is the source of life. It has the ability to give life or to scorch life. It is a consuming fire. It seems to dissapear from time to time, but it never leaves, it is always there. It brings forth light yet can take away sight. It has a pull on us and we can not survive without it. What is it? It is my God.

You Are The Sun - Sara Groves
You are the sun shining down on everyone
Light of the world giving light to everything I see
Beauty so brilliant I can hardly take it in
And everywhere you are is warmth and light
And I am the moon with no light of my own
Still you have made me to shine
And as I glow in this cold dark night
I know I can’t be a light unless I turn my face to you
You are the sun shining down on everyone
Light of the world giving light to everything I see
Beauty so brilliant I can hardly take it in
And everywhere you are is warmth and light
And I am the moon with no light of my own
Still you have made me to shine
And as I glow in this cold dark night
I know I can’t be a light unless I turn my face to you
Shine on me with your light
Without you I’m a cold dark stone
Shine on me, I have no light of my own
You are the sun, you are the sun, you are the sun
And I am the moon you have made me to shine
And as I glow in this cold dark night
I know I can’t be a light unless I turn my face to you
No I will never be a light until I turn my face to you
No I will never be a light until I turn my face to you
No I will never be a light until I turn my face to you

It seems that I always get inspired to blog mostly in the morning when I should be doing work. I'm giving into temptation and being bad today. I even ate a creamcheese iced cinnamon bun, when I know I should have drank a fruit smoothie or something. Boy am I bad.

Here's something that should be good. On my way to work I though about the analogy I wanted to conjure up. So you all know I hate traffic. Lately I guess God has been trying to teach me patience with it. You will rarely ever hear any words of profanity come from my lips when I am around people. But when I lose patience in traffic, you would think I've just walked out of a sports bar. I realized that when I flip out when I am in traffic and don't act very Christ like that I am sinning against myself. Great. So now I've been convicted, and its something I have to give to God now. He tested me yesterday when it took me an hour and a half to get to Ambler because of the weather and I failed misearably.
So I like to get where I am going and I like to have the control. But surrendering my life to God means that I now give him the control. I may think that my timing is better, but it's not. God's timing is what is best for me because I know he cares for me. So when he he asks me to wait for things, it is like waiting in traffic. I want it now, I want to move now, I want things to happen now. But God may need me to wait until I am truely ready, but things will happen eventually, just as the traffic starts moving eventually, so will I when God feels I am ready. So the more I throw hissy fits and continue on crying and wailing, the longer the wait will seem to me, but if I relax and enjoy the presence of God and be in fellowship with him, I won't even realize how quickly the time has past and how easily I will finally arrive to my destination.
