nothing left to lose

Nothing left to lose- Mat Kearney


Something's in the air tonight
The sky's alive with a burning light
You can mark my words something's about to break

And I found myself in a bitter fight
While I've held your hand through the darkest night
Don't know where you're coming from but you're coming soon

[bridge]
To a kid from Oregon by way of California
All of this is more than I've ever known or seen

[chorus]
Come on and we'll sing, like we were free
Push the pedal down watch the world around fly by us
Come on and we'll try, one last time
I'm off the floor one more time to find you
And here we go there's nothing left to choose
And here we go there's nothing left to lose


Right when I doubt myself the most, God picks me up and reminds me how much He loves me. I was so close to shutting down in life, it was then that my prayers were answered, one after another. He even answered the unspoken prayers in my heart that only He knows. God is so good. I often times forget this because I equate His goodness with my emotional state or my circumstances. God is constantly coming in to save our day because ultimately He came in to this world and saved us.

2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV
  • But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

Let's stop trying to carry the weight of the world on our shoulders. I want to be free.
