A few days ago, I was getting ready for work when suddenly a song came to my mind. I had not listened to this song recently, so I thought it was kind of weird that I had this song in my head. I felt like the Lord was trying to tell me something through this song. I knew the main chorus, but it's not really a song that I normally listen to. On my way to work I listened to the song called, "I'm Letting Go" by Francesca Battistelli. Here are the lyrics:
Album: My Paper Heart
Artist: Francesca Battistelli
My heart beats, standing on the edge
But my feet have finally left the ledge
Like an acrobat
There’s no turning back
(Chorus)
I’m letting go
Of the life I planned for me
And my dreams
I’m losing control
Of my destiny
It feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
So I’m letting go
This is a giant leap of faith
Trusting and trying to embrace
The fear of the unknown
Beyond my comfort zone
(Chorus)
Giving in to your gravity
Knowing You are holding me
I’m not afraid
(Chorus)
Feels like I’m falling and that’s what it’s like to believe
Feels like I’m falling and this is the life for me
The night before this song came to my mind I walked into one of our bedrooms in our house that is totally empty. We have a guest bedroom with furniture, but the bedroom beside the guest bedroom is empty. I walked in there to clean, but when I was finished I just stood at the door staring at the room. I stopped and prayed for our future children that would be in that room. I stopped and just listened to the Lord tell me to "let go." I felt a peace come over me about everything. I feel like I'm starting to live my life in a different light. I feel like I'm starting to let go of what I don't have control over anyway. I feel like I'm really starting to trust Him completely.
