Gosh I'm not good at this....


I’m terrible at blogging- this is no secret. As of today, I make a vow to myself that I WILL write out my life at least twice a month!

With that being said, I heard a song on the radio today on the way to the gym that perfectly defines my life right now. The chorus goes like this:

“This is the stuff
That drives me crazy
This is the stuff
That's getting to me lately
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff
That gets under my skin
But I've gotta trust
You know exactly what You’re doing
Might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use”

Oh gosh how accurate one song can relate to my life! As I often get so bogged down by life, God comes in and saves the day (today He chose this song)! After hearing this song, my perspective almost immediately was refreshed and I can now clearly see again that the trials, temptations, and plain and awful parts of life are what God uses most to grow us and to reach others. Needless to say, this song was a great inspiration to remind me that stuff is just stuff, stress is just stress, and God is so much bigger than any of the stuff that happens in a day!

  2. Hey Nataleigh! I came across your blog on Facebook & I think it's a great thing that you're doing. I remember how busy things were senior year & it IS important to slow down and think about the bigger picture. I wish you the best of luck with all that is on your to-do list and in life in general! :)
