//and now You gently break me...//

so this week i started voice lessons. i've been kinda excited for this, but really had no idea what to expect. it became very clear within the first lesson that i am going to have to forget everything i ever thought i knew about singing and start from scratch. not really easy by any means...

and it got me thinking...

i know that God is shaping me into something. not really sure what, but i can feel Him slowly tearing at my walls, the defenses i've built up, everything i knew to be familiar. He's breaking everything down to find something raw and pure inside and then coaxing it into a sort of re-formation. the things i used to hide behind are slipping away.

i'm not sure why He revealed this to me.
and i'm not even sure what it all means.
i don't even know how i feel about it.
i do know that i'm trying to learn how to worship.
really worship.
to get my worship from mere thoughts and ideas and into actions. into a lifestyle.

my mind is sorta on overload lately.

Great post Emma. Thank you for sharing so eloquently what the Lord is revealing to you. It may not feel like it while the peeling is happening, but you are in a really, really, really good place. Isn't it wonderful to know that God CARES about you so much that He's DOING something in your life and heart and mind?! Wow. I am praying for you.
