Drifter

I was driving in my car a few weeks ago and I came across this song by DecembeRadio

Drifter

I used to have a home.
A place I started from.
A place to call my own
bright lights and late nights.
The devil took me on a midnight ride.
Left me out in the desert on my own.
Now I feel alone
I need a hand to help me find my way back home.

I'm a drifter out on a dead end road
trying to find my way back home to get to you
Oh to get to you
Lord I've been gone for far too long,
headed to places I don't belong
and I've got to get back home to you.

Sometimes I think about the past
and the road that I was on,
the one that lead me home
I'll walk on another day
I may wander but I'll never stray,
cause I found out the hard way
sin don't pay.
Now I feel alone,
I need a hand
to help me find my way back home

I'm a drifter out on a dead end road
trying to find my way back home to get to you
Oh to get to you
Lord I've been gone for far too long
headed to places I don't belong
and I've got to get back home to you

and when I feel the night is closing in
and I can barely breathe the air
I just remember that
I've got a friend who really cares
Oh who really cares

I'm a drifter out on a dead end road
trying to find my way back home to get to you
Oh to get to you
Lord I've been gone for far too long
headed to places I don't belong
and I've got to get back home to you

This song really spoke to me. I guess lately I feel like I've been drifting away, allowing bitterness and to take over not listening to hear God's still small whisper that I am loved and he has a plan for me. I want to go back to school in fall. Getting there seems scary. I've never really had a chance to really pursue a dream with out settling for second best. Staying where I am is easy, comfortable, but I can't live like this. God calls us to live boldly, have adventures and be brave. Amidst all this fear and turmoil, I need to remember that keep pursuing Jesus and trying to find my way back home to him.
