You are good, You are good,
When there's nothing good in me
You are love, You are love
On display for all to see
You are light, You are light
When the darkness closes in
You are hope, You are hope
You have covered all my sin
You are peace, You are peace
When my fear is crippling
You are true, You are true
Even in my wandering
You are joy, You are joy,
You're the reason that I sing
You are life, You are life,
In You death has lost its sting
I'm running to Your arms
I'm running to Your arms
The riches of Your love
Will always be enough
Nothing compares to Your embrace
Light of the world forever reign
You are more, You are more
Than my words will ever say
You are Lord, You are Lord
All creation will proclaim
You are near, You are near,
In Your presence I'm made whole
You are God, You are God,
Of all else I'm letting go
Oh, I'm running to Your arms
I'm running to Your arms
The riches of Your love
Will always be enough
Nothing compares to Your embrace
Light of the world forever reign
My heart will sing
No other name
Jesus, Jesus

There's no point fretting over something I have no control over. Even if she's with some guy who doesn't make her feel loved, I can't do anything but entrust her into Your hands. You see the big picture, I don't. I have enough troubles of my own to deal with, and though I can't say that I'm over her, I choose to trust You have Your own way of making everything end up exactly how it's supposed to turn out. I leave it all in Your hands.
You are God, You are God, of all else I'm letting go.

And all that fails to compare.
You say You want all of me
I wouldn't have it any other way

Masked Rider 555
A random title for this post since it's my 555th post :D
So, failed all my subjects (again)... I guess I really have to start hitting the books. Sigh, yet everytime I want to maintain some form of discipline I go a total of hours before it breaks. I've got what, 114 days till A's? It's really time for me to settle down and get my priorities straight. No more distractions.
(Aided in part by the new manager of a certain establishment causing a loss in ambient charm.)

Yesterday was a reminder of why I find it so hard to let you go.

Strange developments: My ex got a facebook. Recently. In all my wisdom (or lack thereof), I pressed the friend request button and it was accepted, though it's not like there's been any interaction in anyway between the two of us. I was just curious to see how she was doing I guess, and it seems that she's moved on just fine with her life.
Which led me to ask myself, "What about me?" I haven't really moved on, at least, I am largely still the same screw-up I was years ago. I've grown a bit more mature in the way I look and think about things but that's about it. I haven't really done anything or lived my life in a way that's been that "180 degree change" we heard so much about in sermons or sharings. Same insecurities, same flaws, same need for attention.
I still have that loner streak within me, and though I try to be all friendly and whatnot I can't help but think I'll never be able to really bond with someone because I'm socially impaired. All those years of growing up around a computer have taken its toll I guess.
