Imagine Me Without You

Jaci Velasquez - Imagine Me Without You
Lyics

So on my way to work today, I listend to a few songs, noting them as they had some meaning to me. However, I didn't feel like today was the day for those songs. Instead, I drove around the rest of the day, listening intently if the Lord had something to show me today. I drove from Mountain View to Stanford, to go and find another pair of basketball shorts, no luck. So, I continued driving, listening to the radio, and heard a few more songs, but it still didn't feel right. Then driving to the gym, nothing felt like it was hitting home, so then I drove to the gas station, since today was the last day of the month, and the discount on gas was running out. Then, this song comes on the radio, and I was like wow, this is SOOOO true and relevant in my life right now since I've been reflecting on where I've grown and where I still need to move forward.

It is truly hard for me to see where I was just a few years ago compared to where I am at now. It's almost impossible for me to imagine myself back in the same shoes that I wore two years ago. I was looking for affirmation from people trying to make myself look cool in order to impress others. However, now, with all that laid aside and something that lasts forever replacing it, my life is now worth while. Now, with God by my side I know that all things are possible through Christ and that he is the one who strengthens me. I am so fortune to be blessed this much, to be given a clean slate, freedom from a previous life, and a chance to start over.
