This song I had never heard but was mysteriously on my ipod came on one my drive home from Holland..
and it just seemed to fit.
It was pain
Sunny days and rain
I knew you'd feel the same things
Everybody knows
It sucks to grow up
And everybody does
It's so weird to be back here.
Let me tell you what
The years go on and
We're still fighting it, we're still fighting it
it was one of those moments that you hear the words of the song and you say, how did they get in my head?
A lot of beautiful things this weekend. A few things that I am still confused about. It is going to take a lot of strength and a lot of Jesus to get me back on that plane tomorrow morning. Yet at the same time, wild horses couldn't keep me away from all that is going on in Boston.
I feel a LOT of internal conflict today. A lot of joy and a lot of grief. I think today at the vineyard, this sums it all up: I looked at Sam and Al and I just whispered the choked words "Sometimes it is hard to love so many great people in one life time. It is an overwhelming blessing. but you are always saying goodbye. Sometimes that really sucks." We just looked at each other, and then we continued to cry. Not really a sad cry, but not a happy one. It was burdened and heavy, but Jesus can make it light. That kind.
